Hailwood Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Another year, another great day of racing. I didn't take as many photos as I have in years past, but I was still pretty happy with how several of them turned out. I may post more as I'm still going through them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Copeland Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Here's a few I took. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photos by Marty Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I had great spot to take pics on Saturday and Sunday, but the damn TV camera was focused on my station so I figured that AMA would take issue with a corner worker snapping pics and not waiving flags. I had way to many yellows at my station due to racers heading into the beach on Saturday and Sunday. I did get both Josh's to autography a picture I took last year of them in the keyhole.

madcat6183 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Dang that camera must be BALLA, awesome pics. So uh, anyone else notice the AMA must not require brake lever guards, or am I missing them in a few pics? The Fillmore pic doesn't appear to have one, and I think a few others don't too. I can't imagine not having one at that level, but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were required after the incident in the 200, but I suppose it's possible that rule was not applied to the superbike class.

redkow97 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 upon a closer look, i think all the bikes have them. The top picture of Herrin shows how the graves bikes are set up. I think Cardinez and Fillmore use more traditional bar-end setups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photos by Marty Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 So you were in turn 4 ?Yes I was on Sturday and Sunday. Friday I was in 1B. Had Disalvo blow by into pro-straight a couple of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat6183 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I know they did at JGP this winter when I was down there, maybe I just can't make them out due to being black glove fingers, cuz I thought so too. I def could see it in Herrin's shot. I would guess they do have them, just using the tiny bar end ones that are real thin. Either way, those bikes are nasty.

redkow97 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Nathan - are those pics from practice, or do you guys run the GoPro during the races as well? With all the efforts riders go through to tuck behind the screen, I'm surprised they're willing to stick the GoPro out there and increase drag. It's probably relatively inconsequential, but at the same time, it just seems like teams go through so much other trouble to improve aerodynamics and gain half an MPH on the straights. Especially the Triumph, given that it has the reputation for being slightly down on power on teh top-end compared to the inline 4's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hailwood Posted July 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Nice shots, RD! I got a few decent shots of Joey coming through the Keyhole from Saturday. I'll post them up once I get a chance to go through and process them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
