Congrats to John Stege.....that is one fast sidecar........................................................................

PS.  What is happening to the rule that states the fore-arms have to be showing from the side on PS.
bikes.....rule change maybe?

PS..PS...I was told the "kneeler sit-in" sidecar like John is running was not safe and legal.....maybe another rule change?...

Bob, it sure is fast in its configuration.  As for your observation/question, I'll go with SSS's line, "Further deponent sayeth not."

well the rule for over 40 yrs has been..."be able to see rider from side EXCEPT the hands and forearms"....

it could be that you remember rules before that...

Hey, Joea...I knew that.....BUT last time we ran our 125c.c. bike I had to chop up the fairing in order to run........must be something about who does the inspection and how they read the rule book.........
Interesting.................. Does Mr. Martin ring a bell?Huh

On 9-27-08 we lost a great friend and fellow racer, he was the BEST, he helped anyone with anything at anytime.  His name is Dave Owen and he will be missed by all that knew him and I am glad to have met him.

Seeing him at Bonneville during 2008 Speedweek was the tops, Dave was in awe of the salt and as usual was there helping out anyone who asked..simply put we lost a great man who will be missed by all.

A few more, including one of Nancy Wennerberg who seems to be heading in a direction that she didn't really wanna be going (SSS and I weren't too crazy about it, either.)

And then there was the Joint Venture with its tugboat V16 motor and just a little bit of smoke. The last photos in the sequence...well, you can just imagine 'em...totally black.

Good job  Ray.

It really didn't matter which side you shot. Totally diffused light.

Rhonnie sure has blue eyes. Congratulations on the Blue Hat.
