rexr 0 Posted October 27, 2010 Welcome 89R.... Glad you decided to join us.. I can vouch for the work that 89R and Alloy Graphics does. He has helped me several times in the past and I have seen many of his projects both during a build and when finished. Excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail in everything he does. Plus he flat kicks butt on a bike too.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you grew up on the culdsac, you must have known Roxy Rockwood and Tommy. They lived in that area also. I tuned for Tommy when he was on the factory Triumph team. I was also there the night Ted was killed. Ascot took many of our youngest and finest. It was a very unforgiving racetrack. I remember Racecrafters in Lawndale. I ran the machine shop at Bill Krause Sport Cycles in Inglewood. There were a lot of good raceshops in that area. Stop by my shop sometime. I would love to see that Norton. 89R Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kellymac530 0 Posted October 30, 2010 That was a very solid wall around that track. Sadly i saw alot of people pass in sprint car races and a few in MC races there.... tough track, but exciting. We moved there in May 1970, so i watched alot of races. I have seen A.J. Foyt race a sprint car there, All of the great flat trackers going back to Gary Scott, Dave Aldana, Mert Lawill, Springer, Carr, and many more... I really Loved watching Speedway on the big half mile, not the little 1/8 they put in on the north end later on, but the big track...wow..watching Bobby Bast back that Jawa into turn 1 and over a ton was bitchen.... I will stop by your shop soon....welcome again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
