Yep '69 440 Roadrunner now 513 cu inches, a Holley double-pumper, he said it gets 6 mpg. He also had a 1964-1/2 notchback Mustang V8.

You win the 'Old Guy's Eye for Past Cars' award.

In the stands for the Daytona Shortrack, 25 lap main about to start.

Final race: Jake Johnson #5 bike in 1st, Kenny Coolbeth #2 bike in 2nd.

The Jack Daniels theme bike at the Indian pavilion, done as a modern interpretation of a 1920's board track racer.

At Joe Rauff's Boxenstopp shop in Holly Hill FL w/"Gen. 1 Marcus meets Gen. 2 Ron." Food is coming! James looks on. Marcus showed-off his 43 mm flatslide Keihins to all interested. 208 RWHP on the Wyotech dyno.

A new Gen. 2 gas tank from Germany is sitting in the shipping box, a TIG-welded aluminum 6 gallon tank, ~ $1400.

A good time was had by all.

Here's a shot (or two) of the most unusual bike I saw at Daytona this year, a turbodiesel! I guess the front brake matches the 'style,' but I still prefer a disc. I'm not sure what the donor bike is, an old BMW, a Ural, or a Dnieper, I think.
