This isn't a joke right? I wasn't sure with the cheesy 70's (shit quality) disco sound track, guys with pornstar mustaches and an announcer that sounds like he's partially OD'ed on Mogadon.

The guy in the red suit and the mirror sunnies even sounds like Elvis (thank you very much).

What a pisser!

Owen you should see my 1978, 79, 80 6 Hour superbike video collection, from Amaroo & Oran park 8)
The footage comes direct from the ABC where the EX used to work .... very similar to your find ;) just an aussie version.


I am sure Gos has a collection 100 times bigger though :roll:

Wes got decked by the kwak :kuda: .... now we know why he went back to the drawing board and figured out how to corner better .. maybe he took some pointers from young Freddie :D
2004 ZRX1200R
And on the seventh day Richo ended his work which he had made. Decided resting was for soft cox, straddled the REX and headed up the old road.
And it was good
