I thought it was rob dyrdek in the thumbnail😂
Same lmfaooo
Same here! I was O dammm, Rob must of started smoking crack.
Same!!! Lmfao I thought rob was in an old man costume again 😂
I came here to say the same exact thing.
@@stevekwiatkowski2535😂😂😂😂
It's so cool seeing just how proud Ricky is of how and what the place turned into. You can see just how much it still means to him.
my exact thought, that little proud grin at the end, like man this is cool.
@ 6:19 you can tell hes Reliving Soo many memories of him just being a Young kid trying to make a name for himself he's reminiscing of the countless Days and months that he practiced to perfect his racing style
Not many people get to see their legacy live on large while they are alive. It must be an incredible feeling and can imagine seeing this stirred up some emotions for Ricky. Truly amazing, what an absolute amazing experience and opportunity for young riders coming up.
The sport has evolved , but this shows you where it all starts . A devoted Dad, a kid with a hunger . It’s there for the taking , you just have to want it .
Amazing, Ricky didn’t have or need a million dollar top secret workshop with everything to become the GOAT 🇺🇸
For his practice bikes... His race bikes were still all factory and made just like this
@@jblob5764 YOUR AN IDIOT, AND COMPLETELY MISSED THE POINT.
Yep. Exactly. He didn't get to escape to AC in between motos, and locker rooms, all that crap. Alot of young guys are coddled and soft
@@rediron44 Another example would be Shaun White. The most coddled snowboarder of all time
Ridiculousness made him age alot
So awesome you can tell Ricky is proud. Also props to star to becoming the new pro circuit type team
With out ap star wouldn't of became a pro team without the people's champion, they would still be a no name team.
Always wanted to ride there. I love how the Rusty #4 Watertruck NEVER has been discarded.
Is this rob dyrdeks dad?
Does anybody else thinks he looks like rob dyrdek
Yup
Why does the thumbnail look like Rob Dyrdek in 20 years 😂
Rob Dyrdek really went downhill huh.
MX has become Overcommercialized - The Costs have become prohibitive to the Blue Collar Privateer - The Days of 250 2 Stokes were the the Most Affordable Racing! Your Dad was your Mechanic just like the Goat 🐐 RC!👍Idk if I like where MX is Heading - It's Becoming more NASCAR every Year!🤨
A lot of people don’t realize just how small RC was back in the day and for him to ride a 2 stroke 250 to the edge is INSANE the amount of conditioning and strength he had to have. RC is great to watch race!
Yeah I heard he was like 5'3 or something.
His style worked for him low center of gravity
Don’t forget a factory 450; that’s a lot of bike and he had no problem.
LOL jeff ward smaller and rode 125 25 and 500 2 stroke to the edge, size matters little, skill matters more. Actually on a bike lighter is better if you have skills.
Imma tell my kids this was Rob Dydeks dad
I could listen to RC all day long…what an incredible rider and person
Agreed, Ricky's probably one of the most beloved competitors the sport will ever see.
On a side note I'd love to sit down with him and our acoustic guitars and do a little country jam session. I've been pickin & singin all my life, not all that great but I love to hit that country twang.
You know a dream is like a river?
It really is 🤷♂️
It's ever changin as it flows.
Just ask Ricky, he knows 👍
God bless
Jesus saves
Dad's old toolbox, I can hear it now Ricky where's my 10mm socket ?
The fact they have kept everything there, that's awesome. I can't fathom what it's like for him to stand there and think back on having lived what he has lived.
Ricky.. much respect you completely rewrote the history and the future of the sport of AMA Moto and supercross. You brought the sport to a whole new level of preparation and competition. The hardest working rider I had ever seen, you set your sights on McGrath when you were still on that procircuit kx125, you ran him down and took the crown.
Took it and never lost it, retired on top and could have done more.
you young guys never saw the true greats. Jeff ward Darryl Hannah etc etc many before ricky were great. Ricky was good very good but goat NOT in his own dreams. he beat up on lesser guys for most yrs
@RT22-pb2pp
Very cool to see the original shop Ricky had! Thanks for sharing !!
Looks like Rob Dyrdek’s real dad…
Wow, that place is huge. It's amazing to see how far the industry has come in just 20 years.
Yeah! but not for the better if your a Privateer!
@@purebloodheretic4682 It changed so much in the last 20 years that I don't even watch motocross anymore. I still own my 2 stroke though.
@@Bigtymer781 Legend!! 👍
Man rob Dyrdek got old
@@notveryobviousguy4373 Ricky Carmichael is 43 and Rob Dyrdek is 48.
What a contrast! Seeing this I think that Star Racing does not make any money at all. It is very impressive but look must cost a fortune. And I doubt that it is really needed...
That was a really cool personal look at some of the original Goat Farm areas during your career Ricky, I believe Star Racing Yamaha's move to Florida only escalated the value and as well as building a first classic facility to assist in winning Championships 💪🏝🌊🏆🏁
Thought the thumbnail was Rob Dyrdek with an old man face filter on.
They gotta expand that place another motocross and super cross track. Keep the legacy of the Goat farm going how RC left it. We wanna know more about the grave yard that's going on back in the woods
Such a shame
Thanks ricky . I really enjoyed that . Life is a gift. Memories are treasure
I love the original shop n Farm imo it’s got soo much character and history that the new will never have 👍
The new shop just looks so dead, no personality at all going on in there
Ricky is how Rob Dyrdek will look like 10 years later
Ricky and Rob Dydrek are long lost brothers.
I thought this was Rob Dyrdek in the thumbnail.
I thought that was rob dyrdek
Gotta say i don't really like the new building, it's like a factory! So light and streamlined, the riders' showers gave me the impression the riders are born on a conveyer belt :p
Love the old cabin, that's a place with heart :)
Wow this was so awesome. i am glad they are trying to keep everything similar to how RC learned.
I used to live next to him growing up! It was pretty cool to ride by his track and seeing them practicing!
I’m 50 this year and for me RC was the most dominant, focused, driven and professional motocross rider I’ve ever seen to date. RC is the 🐐
Jsw
I agree
Pretty convinced this is Rob Dyrdek in costume lol 😂
Man
I remember Ricky and Stewart when they were just kids on Little 80s at the race of champions, in Englishtown, New Jersey. They were tearing it up. Clearing the entire elevator jump, I watched Ricky growing up.
Seems like yesterday
6 years between RC and Stewart though so not quite the same generation.
Remember Jackie Stewart winning Formula 1world championships out of an old wood shed when he drove for Ken Tyrell.
Carmichael and McGrath the kings of racing!!
Didn't watch the video, just wanted to comment the thumbnail looks like a 60 year old Rob Dyrdek....
Did he get sick or something he dont look 10 yrs older than me looks closer to 30.... Hopefully hes healthy. He walks like his knees are shot which im sure they prob are. anyways much respect to Carmichael, was always my favorite rider.
Looks like rob Dyrdek on crystal
Wtf I've watched Rucky for years and just realized he looks like Rob Dyrdek
Still Can't believe Ricky sold the Goat Farm ot Prime
Bro in the thumbnail i thought it was Rob Dyrdek in a prosthetic lmao
It's so cool that a place like this was able to be saved. Sometimes really specialized properties can't find buyers and fall into disrepair.
When I saw the thumbnail I was like “Wtf happened to Rob Dyrdek”
“We had no air-conditioning in this place, by the way. We wanted to be in the elements.” That harkens back to when Bob Hannah suffered heat stroke at the New Orleans national in 1975. After that he swore off air-conditioning of any kind. No wonder Hannah and Carmichael were so dominant.
Also Hannah (and friends) trained in the desert.
I'm sorry but I really thought that was Rob Dyrdek in the thumbnail.
Looks like an old Rob Dyrdek
Very special. Thank you NBC for filming this
Thought this was Rob Dyrdek for a second on the thumb nail 😅
Thumbnail I thought was rob derrick with old man filter
I was about to say for a sec , rob Derdek needs to lay off the crack
Looks like rob derdec
Are we sure Ricky Carmichael aint related to Rob Dyrdek?
RC failing he should have had factory up front
Who else thought this guy was Rob dyrdek for a second...
Hard to see Rob Dyrdek as a drug addict please find him sobriety
Dang i clicked it.. I thought that was Rob Dyrdek
pure awesomeness
Looking at the thumbnail, I was like, "Wow, Rob Dyrdek looking old these days!" 😂
Thumbnail looks like a 70 year old Rob Dyrdek 😂
Why does he look like Rob Dyrdek if he was in his 70s 😂😂😂
In the thumbnail RC looks like an old man Rob Dyrdek
So you’re telling me that isn’t rob dyrdek?
I did a lock out for him back in the early 2000s, auto club call in anaheim hills , 34 dollar tip and he signed his riding trunks for me , awesome guy, and an awesome autograph! Thank RC, I still have them btw!
Dude that’s awesome
@@JonnyJetson754 Yeah it was a surprise, I didn't realize it till I pulled in the driveway that it was him!!!!
Is it just me or does he look like an older version of Rob Dyrdek?
Rob Dyrdek lookin rough these days..
I met Ricky in the UK at Motocross of nations many years ago, such a Top Guy has plenty of time for anyone. Love u man!!!... Btw, Ricky's old workshop should be preserved as a museum. One I'd definitely like to visit some day.. thanks for sharing Ricky look after yourself my man 🙏👍🤙
Rob D changed
That place was full of old bikes and junk in the woods
I thought that was Rob Dyrdek on the thumbnail 😅
Looks like Rob Dyrdek in twenty years 😂😂
I feel like Ricky and Rob dyrdek could be brothers
Thought that was meth dyrdek at first glance
This is how Rob Dyrdek will look like in a few years...
He should have kept an interest in the property as a part owner in my opinion with certain rights therein, his legacy is just to big to leave that stuff behind. All those buildings should be kept like a museum for visiting fans etc. There will never be another goat or anyone as successful as Ricky.
I believe there were/are things going on in his personal life and he had to let it go. hopefully star will preserve what he left behind though, it is a legendry place
It's funny I am just reading your comment after making mine which although is less assuming as yours my comment certainly leads to the same what if's. Upon which...I would like to think Carmichael made out $$$ well...and all's it really is, a wicked lot of land out in stickville USA with some sheety sheet metal prefab buildings and dirt to throw around to make a track. Hopefully no whiny neighbors.
Hallowed ground. Special video 👌
Bro why does he look just like rob Dyrdek
Because it’s said that everyone has a twin.
Wait I thought this was Rob Dyrdek
I thought it was Rob Dyrdek at first.
The thumbnail looks like a really old rob dyrdek
Dang, I thought that was Rob Dyrdek
Looks like the ghost of Rob Dyrdek past
Thought that was rob dyrdek for a moment
I was like, wow rob aged fast.. 😅🐐
Rob dyrdek is looking rough dang
Man, Rob Drydek is looking old.

Shop number for parts.

Ricky Carmichael? I think you mean discount Rob Dyrdek.
Rob Dyrdek not lookin so good these days
Love Star Racing Yamaha and Ricky Carmichael. What a great video. Too cool!
Thought it was rob dyrdek
Dam rob Derrick let himself go
Thought that was rob drydek 😂
My two sons and I absolutely loved watching you race Ricky. We loved you most in green.😂 We watched you battle in St. Louis for 7 straight years and were always glued to the TV whenever Motorcross or Supercross was on. You were the man!! Congratulations man!! You earned all of your success the good old fashioned way.
Who else thought he looked like rob Derek
