Definitely one of my favorite motorsports events to watch is dirt track racing. This year's Indy Mile did not disappoint, with all sorts of action and drama that is part of the territory of bikes reaching speeds of over 100mph with only a rear brake. Fans had additional treat of the King himself, Kenny Roberts, doing a few laps on his famed TZ750. Which, let me tell you, was amazing! Kenny sure put on a show. The slideshow below is a collection of my favorite photos I captured that night.... Enjoy!

Catching up from Indy MotoGP and the last AMA round at NJMP...
Hey everyone,
Still getting caught up on photos from Indy and New Jersey. What two very memorable weekends! And a lot of photos from both...
The Indy MotoGP round was very special. One of the highlights of the year for sure. Seeing KR ride that TZ750 was worth the trip itself. Then add to that getting to see Schwantz do a few laps on his 1993 World Championship RGV500 the very next day at the brickyard...it was definitely a top weekend.
I then headed home for a day before heading back east to New Jersey for the last AMA round and the last time we'd see Mat Mladin race in the AMA. It was a weekend of great racing and a good fan turnout at the new facility. But really puts a cap on the end of an era with Mat leaving the series and the old superbikes being gone.
Until i get a chance to upload the galleries from the two race weekends. Here's some desktops to hold you over... Enjoy!
