Nice photos. But why no photos of the Latus riders, Allan Schmidt and Josh Bryan? Thank you.

I will be posting more shots Doug.....However I spent most of my time in these garages and never got to meet those two riders.....

I have seen numerous mentions of the issue with Danny Eslick passing riders during the pace Car laps and rather than hunt down the original thread I can tell you all this here.. We were there.We watched the whole thing. The people guiding the "Pace Car" had their "HEADS UP THEIR "AS***!!....(sorry Blake!)
I PERSONALLY witnessed them almost crash into SEVERAL riders at the horseshoe , pass riders stupidly and slam on their brakes and almost take out other riders!MANY BIKES PASSED OTHER BIKES on these pace laps.The confusion was ridiculous with everybody trying to get in their correct order because the Pace car DID NOT pick up the leader....Ben ,and had to wait till he came around.Good thing they rarely use pace cars.....They need to use PACE BIKES of some sort instead.

Wow, right on, Eric!

The solution is obvious: Make them use an 1125R "Police Bike" with blazing lights and siren!! Not only will it get the attention of all the racers, but it can actually catch and pass the leader!!!

As always, top notch work on your part.

Buell, the motorcycle company, is several steps removed from where they come from. Drop me a NOTE with MEDIA PASS in the subject, attach your credentials, and let me take a stab at it.

Daytona media passes are nuts. They hold the bike races to the same standard as a NASCAR race. Last time I tried to get one I have to show proof of liability insurance in case I caused someone to get hurt. Even with a request from a couple of magazine I could not get one as a freelancer. They must be getting more media coverage for the 200 than they know what to do with ; )

AAHHHhhhhhh...

Wish I could've witnessed the whole enchilada. A buddy called from the races and left a voicemail attempting to let me hear the ROAR of the Helicon at attack.

Great stuff!!

Also- don't Geico's have to shed their skins as they grow? MMMmmmm, hot lizard ladies!! More pics, pleezzee...
