Jimmy WHite was one of the top pro three wheeler racers back in the 80's. He was a Factory Kawasaki pilot and ran on the Tecate 3's and then switched to the custom built Mojave racers (some with KX250 motors) and then the Tecate-4 for a short time. JImmy ran #31 and was always up front battling with Team Hondas Marty Hart. I think Jimmy was from Iowa and moved to California to make it big in ATV racing. Dean Sundahl was also a Honda Rider back then and did alot of desert racing. I beleive he is building custom framed desert race quads and other racing products. Last I heard about Jimmy White was that he was a factroy rep for Ramsey Winch. Never heard of him being a master fabricator? He had Team mechanics back in the racing days, but not sure of his mechanical talents.

Other fast guys back then you might of heard of are Curtis Sparks (200X racer and 4-stroke expert) Mickey Dunlop (raced for Honda and Team Powroll and now owns Four Stroke Tech) Gary Denton (factory Suzuki quad racer pilot and now owns Denton Racing and is a rep for Weekend Warrior Trailers)
