        More stuff:

        LeMans start for the 165cc race;





        Sidecar race;



        Bummer, a couple guys crashed on their 1st turn of the big CC twin race (Norton, Triumph, Harley, Indian, others).


        The guy on the ground got his bell rung, but he got up and was walked to the AMB. People applauded

        That was it for me, I left because their was rain coming and I did not want to be on the road with rain and weekenders/drunks.
        Bummer I missed the medium and big 4 races.

              Thanks for the pics, Bill.
              I like in vintage racing that you can usually wander the pits and get close the bikes.
              The Le Mans start is fun. Do you remember if they all got away?

                Seems like they did, I think one stalled and needed a push.
