Can anyone guess what track this is, not the one of tampa stadium. You have to be an old schooler to know. ;) The one of tampa stadium had some of the biggest and hardest whoops I've ever ridden on. Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: 310R_Dude on August 09, 2008, 12:25:08 AM "Can anyone guess what track this is..."
Is that Zuber? Up by Hard Rock? And is that Tim McQuaid(not sure 'bout the name) on his Tecate you were chasing? Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: klutchbuster400 on August 09, 2008, 09:17:23 AM Short shorts were really popular with the guys in the 80's huh ::)
Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: trx#9 on August 11, 2008, 11:08:25 PM "Can anyone guess what track this is..." Nope not zuber, try again! Isn't Tim Mcquaid quad32x on here? I don't know if thats him or not, I know I flew past him later on the lap. ;D Maybe he will see this.Is that Zuber? Up by Hard Rock? And is that Tim McQuaid(not sure 'bout the name) on his Tecate you were chasing? Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: 310R_Dude on August 12, 2008, 07:57:06 PM Other than the Stadium shot, the other three pics are the same track right?
Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: trx#9 on August 12, 2008, 10:04:20 PM Other than the Stadium shot, the other three pics are the same track right? Yes sir! Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: 310R_Dude on August 13, 2008, 06:35:22 PM Only three odd tracks that I can think of...
Tallahassee - It doesn't look nice enough, that track back then was a DREAM. Clewiston - I never rode there, but they said it was dirt/sandy. Cocoa Beach(diamond Back)??? I only raced there once, YES that was enough, but the pics don't remind me of what my memory recalls. Is it one of those? I can't believe I can't get this... it had to be early on, you were on the Zuk' :( Title: Re: Posting up some old school Post by: trx#9 on August 13, 2008, 06:51:29 PM Sorry grasshopper, try again.
