Roadracing negatives, Bryar, 79-82
« on: November 08, 2024, 04:00:38 AM »
Thought I would share my older adult pastime of scanning 45 yr old negatives from my misspent youth sniffing TZ750 two strokes as they buzzed past my ear at full shriek..

I do not know who they are, but #41 #48 are closest to what today is considered a correct riding position for racing. However, the typical lean out of the torso was typical for two stroke racing, as it made it slightly easier to catch highsides. Apparently.

Wow, those pics are great-  you must have a really good camera!  (Couldn’t resist…)

Seriously, those are impressive pics Chuck. You clearly understood how to use your equipment.  I had fun with my old SLR, but never learned how to do much very well on purpose with it.  Are you labeling your old negatives and pics while going through them?

I lived in Daytona in the early 80's. Good times! Eddie was one of my favorites at the time, along with Roberts. Really miss those two-strokes!
