    I also attended the event at Indy last weekend. It was one of the coolest events in the history of events if you are a motorhead. This is a great way to have a chance to ride some of the older bikes on a track again, but not in a serious race. The fans and other racers love seeing and hearing the vintage bikes at speed. This same group does 3-4 events with WERA each year. I ran my T500 with them down at Roebling in May. They will be riding there again in July and at Road Atlanta in September. If you have some of your older race bikes available and would like to give them a little exercise in a low pressure setting you should bring them out.

    Because HMGP isn't running at Roebling this month - just Road Atlanta in September. I of course could be totally wrong, it's happened before :D

    Was a great event and thanks to Bill Brown making this happen. Bill, Linda and Sam resolved any issues, communicated with the riders and insured we all had a great time. Also like to thank TLR67 Mark for letting me hang with you guys all weekend. As for the riding, I will say, Mike Burns is a cheater, LOL but the best traction I've ever had on a track. Truly worth the effort to attend.

    Hey, that was me, Greg, who took you and Bill for the nook & cranny tour of the Brickyard grounds!
    It was great meeting you, hanging out, and maybe next time we'll have all the gremlins worked out of Jim's bike.
