    Thank you OR!!

    I had a good time as well. I am a fan of Suzuki, and with Mladin and Spies gone, it is no longer the Suzuki Cup race anymore. In the past, you almost knew a Suzuki would win, but not sure if it would be Matt or Ben winning.
  3. Pedro, it is a Nikon D200 with a 28 to 300 mm lens. Speedy, correct, that is Joe and his brother Mike.
  4. getting the beads ready: Me making my move on the "employee"
  5. My campground family: our pit bike collection,including an aprillia: Me on a Yamaha Enduro 100
  6. Here are some pictures Bratkar and I took at Mid-ohio. Mellissa Paris:
  7. Yeah, the van guy doing a burnout on a semi-gravel road was probably not the best idea, along with having a female passenger on top of the van.
  8. I'll be in Mobile Bay / Gulf Shores area the week after the Indy GP race in Sept.
  9. Ben, I never did find your camping spot.
  10. After about the 8th time that girl on the top of the white van rolled through, I was almost hoping that she would slide off the roof. I was one row over from the burnout area. There were 2 girls on a green flatbed golf kart type thing, on the side road, doing things I have only heard about in movies.
  11. I notice the reduced number of unbrella girls and some unused garage stalls towards turn 1 side of the pits.
  12. All the years of me going to Mid-ohio, this was the first time for me going over to that campground after dark. Very fun. I have plenty of Not Work Safe pictures. And when you stay in the camp ground, you dont have to worry about being sober so you can drive to a hotel. The group I was with had a camp spot in the "self-contaned" campground, by the north gate, just over the Honda bridge. For 2011, I plan to get a season pass and a seson campground pass for Mid-Ohio. I'll be there at least for Saturday IRL practice/ Rolex race in 3 weeks.
  13. Well, there were other events that occured in the campground, but did not want to comment. Just think of a mini- Mardi-Gras and females "earning their bead necklaces". I seen Ben twice over the course of the weekend. If anybody was in that side of the campground, the group I was with included the 3 guys dressed as "pimps" (this is the third year they dressed up like that).
  14. Great looking shots near Honda bridge.Always great to spend time with the parents. I like your tradition. Friday morning,after lunch break, there was a rider that went off track near Honda bridge, turn seven or eight. Not a crash, but a mechanical issue. It was a black bike, without any sponsers, and had a white background on his bike number on the tail. The corner workers did not call a crash truck for him. The rider was walking the bike along the tire barrier, opened the gate towards the infield and was still pushing the bike. So me and a guy in a golf cart start helping this rider push the bike up the dirt path in hopes of getting back to the pits. After like 30 feet, we decided to have golf cart guy drive the cart, I would "straight leg" push from the passenger seat......This worked out well. We got to the "paved" road at the top of the hill, near vendor row. At that point, another guy on a pit bike (a crew member or friend) took over and pushed this guy the rest of the way. Saturday night in the tent campground....pure crazy-ness. Crazy guy on CBR standing on gas tank, right foot pinning the throttle doing a burn-out on a piece of wood.
