I was just looking through some old pics on my computer and came across my trip to Barber for the first AMA race there and if I remember correctly it was the first race there ever. I thought you guys might like these.

Ah....before the mighty 51 & covered trailer!!

Okay this was not Barber, it was road Atlanta. But, I got so lucky because I think it is a great speed shot:

Those inaugural Barber races, with the RC51 being used, are still ones to remember. Bostrom and Roberts hitting each other numerous times as they ride the wheels off their bikes. And who can forget Bostrom collecting DuHamel and a lapper. Quality pics there man.... keepers

yeah, those races at Barber were the best. What a way to begin its history by having a pack of RC51s and Ducatis rumbling around the course.

RVT4LIFE, thanks. I tried on almost every lap prior to get this shot and they all came out blurry except this one. I currently have it as my desktop
