Did you ever make it out to San Angelo for the one year they used the old air strip track? It was mostly concrete, flat with hardly a reference point and fast as all get out. Edwards was a novice then but making waves that year, sometimes winning from 2nd wave in a combined race with experts. But on my best day at that airstrip, expecting him to go by, I got to the flag and looked back, nobody…. To be fair I was all dialed in from the previous days endurance race and ended with four wins, A, B, C production and C super bike.

FZR 400, a great bike if you are light guy. Kevin Rentzell (RIP) made contact with me on the warm up lap with a 600 engined one at Road Atlanta on the back straight once…. a move to psyche me out. It worked!
