Hailing from Geelong in Victoria, Troy Dorron is widely regarded as one of Australia’s greatest-ever 125/MX2 motocross and supercross racers, with a legacy that spans both domestic and international tracks.

Renowned for his dominance in the 125cc and MX2 divisions, Dorron’s impact on Australian motorsport is undeniable.

Troy Dorron’s professional racing journey began in 1988 when he made his debut in the senior ranks. Over the next 12 years, Dorron became a prominent figure in Australian motocross, riding for several top teams, including Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Honda. His professional career, which spanned across two decades, saw him claim 10 major national titles, including five Australian Supercross Championships, three Supercross Masters titles, and two motocross championships.

Dorron’s versatility was on full display as he moved between the 125cc and 250cc divisions, excelling in both outdoor motocross and indoor supercross events. However, it was in the 125cc category where he truly found his calling, consistently dominating the field and building a reputation as one of the best.
