Sobering Example of how truly great Kosinski was. He even handled Carl Fogarty...lol I had the pleasure if watching him race, and also with the "evil empire" @ Lauguna.

Consider for a moment that.. Rich Oliver came in 2nd to Kosinski .. Oliver a great rider who I've watched race many times, a rider with these credentials came in 2nd to John

0.) Rich Oliver is the third winningest rider in American history!

1.) 71 National road race victories
2.( 5 time AMA 250 National Champion.
3.)WERA 250 Champion.
4.)1996 &1997 undefeated with 20 wins straight!
5.)Formula USA 500 cc National Champion.YZR500s to you folks!!
6.)Factory rider for Yamaha in Superbike and Supersport
and
7.)World Gran Prix 500 and 250!

For John to win my such large margins over other riders of this caliber, shows just how talented the top 500cc 2 stroke riders were back then, now a long, long time ago...

Crazy to think that only one active Moto GP rider raced and won on a 500cc 2 stroke, that being one still active dude named V Rossi
