I raced there in the 60's and 70's won many races. We had a Race Team back then called Strange Engine Service. My bud Winston's bike was the one used in the silhouettes on the cover of the US30 Program
I remember stuffing Bob Stuby in the trunk (tight fit at 300 pounds) because he didn't have the money to get into the pits. After pulling about five holeshots, we let him out, he looked like a pressed ham!
I remember the nasty hamburger stand with the bathrooms at each end of the counter, and the time Art Arfons jet blew the little shack behind the start line right off the foundation! The Michigan Madman on his chevy powered bike and all the smoke he came out of sideways.
Al Roker...are you listening? This is how it's done!

Sounds like he was using an old EchoPlex tape machine.
