Wassup guys... I am a confessed lurker, however i plan on changing my ways. But the real reason i am posting now is to ask for a little help. I have to write a 20 page paper for a college class dealing with an overall history of any subject. So, of course I decided to write about American motocross. Living in AL makes this diffcicult b/c there are very few good sources in local libraries. I was hoping that some of yall might be able to help me out in providing me with some good sources. thanks to anybody who helps me out

Brad Lackeys book has a real good section on the history of motocross. I think you can order it from his web site. You will get an A if you use that as your source. Individual topics...you have come to the right place.

This is a decent recap of the birth of the sport in the US

Part 2 details the birth of MXDN and Grand Prix championships post WWII.
