holy shit, is that a 1098 tricolore in the row of knocked over bikes? I assume the guy with the bike cover caught hell for that one.

Yeah Ike came in on Sunday, as if in one fail swoop. The story is the guy with the cover caused it all.

I would expect the pics from the front of the pits were from Thursday. I was in that area then.

I've talked to Suzuki in Brea, CA and did not like the way they answered my questions about their lack of presence at the track. SO.... I am going about it a different way. I'll maybe have some answers in a few days. :biggrin

Now dont get me wrong I dont like streached bikes, imo thats not a custom bike? Just because you have someone put a long ass swingarm on it and do some paint. Too me thats not custom,....this however is hands down winner in my book of the Boz Bros custom bike contest.

having been an engineer in a japanese company run into the ground by bafoons, i feel for those wonderful gsxr engineers. their management is devoid of the good culture that the engineers have. not recalling obvious safety problems, cheating in superbike, being absent at motogp and not being humble about it.:banghead

So Iam standing next to the Desmo and am finishing taking pictures. I notice the fence next to it has the Bridgstone guys hard at work behind the fence, changing tires.

I look over to see all the team garages closed? Its blocked off by a covering and shipping crates,so I take out the camera to snap a few shots when all of a sudden this dude pops up standing on their shipping crates. He hands me his Tshirt.(Cause me and myu friend are the only ones standing their:])

I flipped out needless to say and grabbed it, he handed my buddy one and by that time we were getting pushed against the fence and decieded to get out of their. Awsome a free Colin Edwards T-shirt!!!! Iv met him once before in Daytona, very down to earth guy. Seemed very cool, and happy to be at Indy.

Yard of bricks. In a span of 63 days, 3.2 million paving bricks, each weighing 9.5 pounds, were laid on top of the crushed rock and tar surface to upgrade the Speedway. The first ever motorized race held at IMS (a motorcycle race) was run before the bricks had been laid.

Unfortunately, the pretty girls appeared to be hiding most of the weekend due to the weather. Either that, or they wre wearing ponchos. The umbrella girls for the teams were apparently only in the paddock area, which you needed a special pass to enter.

On Saturday night, I checked out abit of the XDL stuntshow downtown and even caught the last bit of the Indy mile race at the fairgrounds. I only had a chitty camera with me at the stunt show and Indy Mile, which is why I don't have any good pics.

The most redneck environment I've ever been in (I'm and asian guy from Ontario, Canada). The place smelled of hay, fuel and horsechit. It was pretty cool though. King Kenny was down there hanging out somewhere.

Vid from race. Not too long before they called the race. As you can see, the weather was pretty chitty and I was amazed they rode as long as they did in those conditions. I couldn't even hold the camera still.
