Brick, Chris and I had great fun witnessing the sound and fury of MotoAmerica racing at VIR - the bikes and drivers are unreal!

MotoAmerica and VIR sure put on a fan-friendly event. People who came by bike got to park at the main concourse and the layout is such that the pit area is open to the public. We got to see up close and personal the drivers, mechanics working on the bikes and even the umbrella babes!

If the VIR race is an indication then MotoAmerica looks like they're doing good. Lots of people in attendance all over the course, full television coverage and major factory team support.

It was such a big day that on the return ride we ended up having to drop down to the slab at Winston-Salem because it was getting dark.

Here are a couple of proof pics:

Many many people came by bike.

KTM390 spec class. The "kids" put on a good show.

I dumped the video. It didn't do justice to the "HOLY CRAP!!" of seeing and hearing it live.
