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.

That was during first practice on Friday. No cameras allowed during the races anymore. But you're right, we remove them for a fast lap effort or tuck them inside the fairing like this angle here -

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.

Awesome! Look forward to seeing them. Edited by RidersDiscount

How in the world did you get shots like that DitchDigger??? I was there for the whole weekend and got some great shots too, but your's are amazing. Did you have a press pass? Heck I think we could have ran into eachother a couple times...
