No race pics....and only a small section of bikes, to busy looking and talking but not taking pics

I should really have got some of the low flying passes from the P-40 & spitfire too but didn't think of recording it until after it finished

Some serious collectors bike out on the track too, 2x Brittens, Brough Superior and lots of other bikes that are impossible to replace

Very cool ! I've never seen most of those. Is that baby CBX engine real or just a mock up ?

  Love that motorcycle! Somehow, someway I have to get one.
   
Leathel thanx for the photos. I saw the sidecar races @ Mid-Ohio Raceway years ago. What a blast to watch, teamwork on a motorcycle!

The local dealer in Madison WI has an old early 1980s white cbx cycle on showroom floor with very, very low miles, but they said it does not run, looks to be just for show.   I did not ask, but if they are an authorized Honda repair dealership,  why not get it running and fix it up?

baby is a mock up but pretty cool

 There was another red CBX without the fairing in the spectator parking that I am pretty sure that owner has 2, When I saw this black one a few years back he showed me pics of his red one

sidecar racing is cool but I really love classic sidecar racing....the old boys give it heaps and those narrow tires have them sliding around the track Cheesy
