Great film. It was fairly accurate, according to some I know who were around the business at that time.
BTW: Brother of a close friend just made a LSR at the Flats just the other day ... over two hundred mph on a production motorcycle (can't recall what class, think it's 600 or something like that). And another ... When several friends of mine went out to run a Moto Guzzi LeMans at the Salt Flats a few years back (2004?) and capture its production class record, the bike they ran (and won) was wearing the production bellypan fairing from *my* 1989 LeMans Mark V. (They were rejected during scrutineering for production as they didn't have the lower piece. I got a desperate phone call and FedEx'ed the part unbolted from my bike that morning, and they won their record later that week.) Makes ya proud to be part of this madness. ;-) Fun photos, by the way!!! G On Oct 5, 2007, at 6:13 PM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Saw it. Excellent movie.
