Welcome to Rock's Racing Services!
RRS is a manufacturers' rep firm and track support company. 310.387.1889 or e mail
Rock started racing in 1972 aboard a 250 AJS Stormer and his committment/enthusiam for the sport remains high after close to forty years. As much as he loves MX his dislike loud four strokes led him to start the company. Rock's been vocal about the need for lower sound limits in professional racing and his efforts played a role in having the sound levels for professional racing lowered to 94 db.
In 2009 FMF approached him about their new website for all things sound related and he now moderates the forum over at Sound Off MC
RRS is proud to be on the cutting edge of MX technology and since opening we've developed a reputation for always having the latest and greatest..
June 29, 2010 UPDATE:
Simon Smart Body introduces CRF450R/250R fix to eliminate stalling and improve tractability for $34.95
Why spend over two hundred dollars when you can spend a fraction of that for the same result?
Instead of removing your throttle body just remove your ECU and send it in for a remap that has been tested in a wide range of temperatures and elevation. This map is the result of months of testing and was proven in the deserts of Arizona in temperatures up to 115 degrees and elevation up to ten thousand feet.
Of course if you jam on the rear brake without pulling in the clutch the bike will still stall but under off road and MX riding conditions the frequent stalling that has had some CRF owners hating their bikes will become a memory. Call 310.387.1889 for more information.

Interested in more than reducing stalling on your EFI machine? How about broadening the power band and a big increase in performance? We have the solution for all MX machines except the YZ450F. Check out the revolutionary throttle body that has a slide instead of butterly Simon Smart Body

1) If you are also interested in becoming a RRS supported rider please fill out the form on the Contact Us page. RRS riders receive discounts on FMF, No Fear gear, DeCal Works graphics as well as muffler packing services in exchange for running Rock's Racing Services logos on their motorcycles.
2) Bristol Core has introduced the latest in muffler packing technology with their Spec 30 HD kit. The Spec 30 HD kit includes a heavy duty wires mesh/premium steel wool combination that offers the ultimate in repack kits. If you are only interested in packing material the Spec 30 Universal Pillow is premium packing material in an easy to install universal kit. There are less expensive repacking options on the market but none higher quality or longer lasting. I've been repacking mufflers for over two years with Bristol Core and have seen numerous mufflers reach over 50 hours and still have over 90 percent of the original packing left.
History of Rock's Racing Services by MIchael "The Rock" Rigdon
Since they reappeared at the dawn of the 21st century I have not liked loud four strokes. Rock's Racing Services (RRS) is the result of a friend suggesting in the fall of 2006 instead of just complaining about noise to actually do something about it.
Shortly thereafter on www.motonews.com I learned about the db Dawg from Ignition Products (AKA Ignition Racing) in Canada and subsequently made contact via e mail with them. We kept in touch and in February of 2007 I met with Justin Moore and Colleen Porter at the Indy Dealer show and became the US representative for Ignition Products http://www.ignitionproducts.com/Ignition/main.html
After working with the db Dawg insert for a month I realized having fresh muffler packing goes hand in hand with using the db Dawg. I then purchased an inventory of packing material and muffler cartridges from www.bristolcore.com plus bought tools (cordless drill, rivet gun, etc.) so I am now also offering muffler repacking services. Additionally I offer these same cartridges for those who prefer to do the repacking themselves.
Since the company started I picked up various product lines and the company became a manufacturer's rep/track support business.
For a complete listing of Rock's Racing Services' products please click on the Product Line tab. Pleas note I am no longer involved with Ignition Racing after I got tired of having some people say my interest in sound was driven by my desire to sell noise inserts when nothing could have been farther from the truth.
On Saturdays I can usually be found at the REM races at Glen Helen www.remsatmx.com .
Take care and ride safe!
