Seeing how its hard to compare people from dif years I would think Doug should have way more than 27% based on the number of Championships. Man Big John Finkleday... Dude was NUT'S!! Broke more bikes than anyone i bet. LOL Doug did beat him at a Netra hair scrable heads up. But John was older then too.
A freind of mine was on the KTM team with Finkleday, and I rode with them a couple times. Dude would snap kick start shafts daily!!!!! hilarious!!!lol
Motocross does not celebrate Dougie Legend near as much as they should. And it's a damn shame... That is a great man.
I remember a mag had a picture of Finkleday standing on top of a garbage truck and it said "team garbage". I remember seeing him come off southwick in summer when everyone would be pouring water over their heads, he would just run his bike back to the pits and throw it on the stand like it was nothing!
Little did I know that # 69 kid with a mouth full of braces would turn into an insperation for a moto generation, his limitations will never stop him! Doug you are the man!
UTMX, I saw Finkleday win a hare scramble with a back wheel that could best be described as square afterwards. I don't know how he even rode with a wheel that mangled let alone win the race. Then again watching how pieces of dirt, rocks, and trees were flying all over the place when he lapped me on that big KTM gives some explanation. The stuff of legend....
