This picture is of former Huffy Factory rider Martin Marano. Martin says it was actually used in a Huffy advertisement fro the Pro Lightning. The Pro Lightning was the first real BMX bike Huffy produced. Love the JT uniforms. More pictures to follow.

This ad appeared in a 1982 issue of Super BMX. It congratulates Ron House for winning the NBA#1 ProAm, whatever that is lol. Maybe Ron will see this one day and let us know what that is. It looks like Ron may have been the first rider Huffy ever sponsored. I think Ron also rode for Vans at one time.

The team was disbanded mid season. Only Stu Thomsen would finish out 86 racing for Huffy.
