I'm glad I was able see Kevin's legendary career from beginning to end, a talent like few others will ever have.

5:22 Schwantz almost lost the rear!!! Nice home video by the corner worker. I didn't think this existed. Thanks for posting!!!

Joe A this was not a corner-worker. It was the track videographer. Redline Video!

Better coverage and more fan turnout in 1985 than 2018. Sad

Sorry to click like #35 but somebody had to do it. I used to love that track so much but it was my only reference. I'm glad much has improved since those days.

I really loved that track, and did a bunch of racing there.
It’s a lot more technical than it looks, and you’ll get over your fear of speed quick!🫡
