BMX 1991 ABA Grands - Most Controversial Race in BMX? 16 X Main - Luna vs Rana vs Roebuck

[bmxf1]

This was to me the most rembered story of the 90's I remember reading about this in BMXplus &Go. Leading up to this race ol Mikey musta been feeling the presure. I hella wanted him to get both titles, back then I was 15i & I rode a GT. Thank you Corky for posting the one race I always read about but never saw. I still till this day trip out on that ALL WHITE GT. Super NARLY

@bmxf1 Ha. Glad you could finally see this one! It's been etched in my memory forever. Luna definitely felt the pressure. Did you know, that if he would have just stayed in 2nd place he would have won the overall title? If you find the 15x main on here, you'll also see the race where I won & Donnell got 2nd. In an alternate universe, if he could have pitched me over the last turn (and not gotten DQ'ed), he would have won the title. But Jason was never that kind of racer. Crazy stuff, for sure.

Is this the race where Roebuck got the ameteur title by one point? Or was that against Jason Donnell during a different race?

@eelson This IS that race. Jason Donnell got 2nd Place in 15x (that video is also posted on here). When Roebuck got 1st in this 16x race, he ended up beating Donnell for the overall amateur title by 1 point.
