Buell Inside Pass Track Day - Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca December 2007

Buell Inside Pass: the Ultimate Track Day

2007 was the inaugural year for the for Buell Inside Pass: the Ultimate Track Day. The idea behind the track days was to provide a deeply discounted track day - a great value with lots of sessions, where riders may sign up for a Buell Demo ride and try out the latest Buell models, including the new 1125R.

The 2007 Inside Pass schedule included 12 top notch tracks around the country, among them Barber Motorsports Park, Road Atlanta, Pocono Raceway, Mid-Ohio, Road America and ending the season at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Buell partnered with Private Track Time to organize the events. There were a couple of events where local track day providers ran the event. Red Shift ran the event at Laguna Seca.

It was a cold, rainy day for the Buell Inside Pass Track Day at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca on 12/18/2007. It was unfortunate that the Buell demo rides were cancelled and only a few media riders got to experience the Buell 1125R. Riders who braved the wet slippery track got a chance to practice SMOOTH riding. I'll be publishing my reviews of the 2008 Buell 1125R and the Buell Inside Pass Track Day soon.

R.I.P. Evel Knievel

Evel Knievel has passed on.

I was never a big fan of his stunts or his personality. He was an interesting character, to be sure, and his personal story is unusual to say the least. I remember watching George Hamilton's portrayal with amusement.

Whatever you may think of him, he led an interesting life. The outlaw image combined with the death-defying attitude (and good old-fashioned salesmanship) created a mystique that propelled him to national icon status - and even if he had faded into partial obscurity over the years, there have been few, if any, challengers since.

Rest In Peace.
