Not everybody is as old as us, and has been in this game for as long either. Back in the dizzle, Hahn, Extreme, Road Race were the big names. Then the others popped up, Buschur, Turbo Trix, Alamo, etc.. Then after all those, the names people know nowadays took the reigns. Been a long time, and been a million DSM shops over the years. (I'm sure I'm forgetting some of the shops, but the mid '90's was a long time ago)
