Come prepared for the TT race and end up on an impromptu Hare-and-Hounds. That's gotta hurt.

Remember when they ran the sidecars at the gp's. On a sidecar it must feel like racing on the sidewalk.

My vintage class use to go off right behind the sidehacks at the Adelanto GP every year, use to have to work you way around hacks for about 20 minutes. They didn't see to be going all that fast in the MX section, but on the big straight at the back of the course watch out.

Then in '05 they changed the start grid all around. Now the vintage goes behind the new dual sports. That year I got a big holsehot (250 Yam ported/pipe, etc) and blew right through the dual sport line, it was cool seeing a '72 DT2 in the ranks of new Husky 4 stroke dualies and such, made a few people do a double take. I even have a picture...
