The 1992 Hi Flyers Motocross Cards included a number
of rising star cards heres a sample of some
|
With 16 years of hindsight, with out a doubt the Rising Star Card featuring a 12 year old Ricky Carmichael is the crown jewel of the
whole Hi Flyers Motocross card sets released in 1991 and 1992. Scores of young riders showed promise back in 1992 however what Ricky
Carmichael accomplished in a sport where injuries are so common will most likely never be repeated
Ricky Carmichael
Any Professional motocrosser that recorded 14 overall race wins would be considered a motocross star. Ricky Carmichael recorded 14
Championships including, two perfect seasons winning every race. The likelihood of anyone even coming close to his career record is
remote. And it is the reason Ricky Carmichael is considered the greatest of all time. |

Ryan Hughes
Rising Star With a career plagued with injures Ryan Hughes never won AMA National Championship, despite that he’s a champion and a favorite in the hearts and minds of fans who recognize Hughes as one of the toughest men to ever compete in the pro motocross scene
In addition, who can forget one of the all-time most memorable motocross moments?
When, in 1995 competing for the AMA 125 National title. While hanging it out trying to catch Steve Lamson, Hughes’ chain broke during the final moto at Steel City, and he pushed his bike across the line.

Robbie Reynard Rising Star
Robbie Reynard was one of the most promising rookies to enter professional motocross in the history of the sport. Robbie exploded on the pro
motocross scene, becoming the youngest winner ever of an AMA National when he took the ’93 Steel City National, barely three months past his
16th birthday, as well as winning the National Arenacross Championship that same year. Like so many others injuries would hinder the success
of this rising star.ng the National Arenacross Championship that same year. Like so many others injuries would hinder the success of this
