  • This video was thrilling. Danny RULES!!!

  • Your right about the trophy truck! He always told me that he wanted to drive a truck in Baja races & be like Jack Johnson. That was back when we were teenagers.

  • How the heck did you compile all this video?! Amazing job!

  • One of my Hero's growing up !

  • i use to race a WR500 ..the KX had just a little more top end..not to many people can say they used all the power a 500 had...

  • @jangho9 Yep. Five Zero Zero.

  • Damn that 2 stroke sounds good. This is a KX500 right ?

  • Its cool the way the picture slowly fades to black at the end of the clip.

    Danny was fast.

  • I still ride the same Trails in the Ely G P and I do not understand how he made it through there so fast.....HE IS AND ALLWAYS BE A LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! live forever DH1 much love. and what a lose of talent. I still to this day think he won more desert races in his sweet but somewhat short career. No rider to this day has won as many!!!!! I heard his Life ended in baja by crashing into some drunk locals were driving there car in reverse on the course?DH was doing over 120 when hehit thecar?

  • I was there for the Ely grand Prix. It is were I live. I was a teenager. and the race was a 28 mile cource 4 lap event. over some of the roughest and most trecheress terrain you ever seen in your life. then it went straight through central and east Ely. I remember he one every race till the event ended in 1995 I remember he would be the first one in the pits every time usually with a 10-15 minute lead over the next rider!!!!!!!! I remember the 94 grand prix he lapped Tye Davis twice!!!!!!!!!!RIP

  • This is a true legend of Desert and it put B.C. on the map as the spot to ride MRAN was never the same. Watchin him ride the DR 350 at age 12 was the beginning and his training regimin started in Jr. High when most of us were playing he was riding 3 hours a day these vids don't even begin to show the raw talent!!! You are really missed Diver

  • i use to race in some of these...Danny was Pro...i raced expert...moved into Pro after he died...he was a legend..realy was
