Well I broke down and dug out the first of hundreds of my old racing pictures
and also learned how to scan the pictures into my computer.
Leaves a bad taste in my mouth to enter into more cyber crap , but for you guys , I will do it .

I plan on going thru all my old racing pictures from when I traveled and crewed with some good friends on our teams Funny Bike and Top Fueler
Hope you enjoy them

First 2 pictures are of Kevin Tooma and our Funny Bike know to all as The Little Digger.

Is that you in the first photo? What was done to that bike? What kind of times?
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

First picture is of Kevin on the bike
He was the owner and Rider.
Ted was crew chief , and I did anything else needed. ( Fuel, Air bottle for shifter and tires. Helped change motors or upper ends , ETC...) Oh and photographer

Bike ran in 8s all day long and hit high 7s This was flying Back In The Day Late 70s
Bike also ran in sportsman classes for certain organisations .
