Miller Motor Sports Park 5-29-2010

Post by jfholm »

Well it is the big Motorcycle race this weekend and Monday. My Friend Ron and I went out as my friend Bill who is a driving instructor out there and also runs the museum got me tickets. Nice to have friends that don't forget their friends. :D By the way this is not the AMA (American Motorcycle Association) race. This is the international one Run by Fiat and this is the only one of those races in the entire Western Hemisphere. If any of you get the opportunity to go to Miller Motor Sports Parks, take it! Absolutely a World class track. http://www.millermotorsportspark.com

While we were wandering around with Bill we ran into this, it is a mid engine Mini. All fiberglass with a mid-engine Honda engine that is Turbo'd.

Even that Stupid restaurant that have the male divers. The Girls Draw there boy friends in, and wolah 18 mouths latter it's all paid from and making major profits. And it go's on and on.

Thanks for the pictures. 8-)

In the photos I posted above, notice the black Cobra with #15 on the side? That is the real "Hey Little Cobra" from The Rip Chords Album.
