A Blast From the Past

Running Middleweight on a Lightweight SV650

I was looking through some old photos the other day and stumbled onto this one.  It's from 2003 which was my first year with WERA.  To get some extra track time, I entered a few Middleweight races as an amateur and this one was from Grattan (any idea which turn?). 

I remember this race in particular as we finished inside the Top 10 in the commonly-referred to "meatgrinder" class.  This was back when the grids were pretty large and I remember thinking the entire time during the race, "These guys on 600's are crazy!"
