This is awesome, thanks for sharing johndice...

I'll have to scan some auto racing pics like the Long Beach Grand Prix with Fittipaldi (when it was F1 and not CHUMP cars).

Thanks guys, I knew the "old guys" (like me) would appreciate the time warp...

This is one of my favorites for no other reason then it's these 2 guys, and seems somewhat forboding because it's in b&w.

USGP, 1990

Hey,
You would not happen to have a picture of Kevin at Laguna when he rode the Pepsi bike AND worn his Camo' helmet in support of our troups durring Desert Shield? The officials made him remove it. I think I only saw him use it on the warm up in the morning on race day.

Ah, the good old days!! :thumbup

You also might remember "Road Racer" magazine? It was bi-monthly, then turned into a yearly deal........
I've got the full collection from my subscription days! :wow

Now, I feel old....... :(

Black and White photos are timeless IMO. I wish there were more.......

Sorry, I don't, I missed the USGP in '91 when he wore that helmet... but I do have one of him with the #1 on his bike...

USGP, 1994, qualifying before he crashed out of the weekend:

I really like the more recent pictures! I have never been to an actual GP race. Is it easy for the fans to just come onto the track like that?

Not really, and I wouldn't expect to see that at our GP in July. I think there was 100,000+ people there for that race, and they delayed it for an hour so the crowd (& racers, I'm sure) could watch the World Cup Final from S. Korea.
