Mel (and everyone who pulled this amazing event off),
Congratulations on the single best concept in a LONG time!

 

More Photos from the Facebook Page By Bill Senck, yeah there big, but Jimmy cracked corn

 

all i can say is wow and thank you for showing us that jersey doesn't suck; previous media led me to believe so... i am thinking that a cross country trip is now in the works.

 

Hahahahaaaaaa... You guys are all sick, just like me. I love it!

 

Mel, I demand a rematch! Next year. Sand or pavement, you're going down!

Thanks for a great day!

 

More from the Facebook group Photos by Bill Senck. did a batch resize, cause I could.

 

Be sure to check out asburyanchor.com for all kinds of pics of The Race of Gentlemen. We were on the scene all day and night and have an amazing collection of photos of the day.

 

Well.................. Great news folks! They want us back!!!

Once again I talked with the mayor at length today, and they could not be more proud of you, and all your efforts with respect to their town. I also spoke with the State police today whom mandate racing in NJ. The officer incharge said it was hands down the coolest event he had been too and was happy to help us make it better next year!

So my fine friends, see you at the races!!!

 

Lets give credit where credit is due... Thank you for all you did for us Mr. Harry Miller!

Schofield is a boner!

 

^^ hahahahaha

 

I WILL be there!!!! My brother and I are already planning the roadtrip from Southern California. Reading through this thread, looking at all the pictures and comments it almost doesn't seem real... Did this really happen? It sounds like you Sir pulled off something that was truly remarkable!

 

wow!

 

^ Is that Rick from OCC on the black flathead?

 

yes

 

Is there any GoPro footage noticed some stuck cars , awesome period correct show love it

 

Yes that is!

Funny story:
I got his email via my phone when sitting at a bar for lunch with some MMA/motorcycle buds. A break while making props for days, right at the last minute, maybe the day before. I had about two nice local IPA's in me when I returned his email. I said well, you being on that horrible show it is very unlikely... but since you are the coolest one and a friend said your a decent guy,I might consider and I may squeeze you in for shit and giggles. I was half serious, but mostly kidding. I apologized for my funny reply at the end of that email and said I'd consider squeezing him in if his bike did'nt have have the arm of the statue of liberty for a hand shift. He laughed and took my kidding well. He had a killer old HD that he soon sent a pic back over to me. Tell ya what, I had the skinny on him... and everyone was right... great guy. I just like to bust balls. He is way cool in my book.

Oh, we almost killed each other too. I took the first test run. I told the flag girl to get ready, it was her first time. Before I could return, she got excited and sent two more bikes down the beach. Yikes! She was hired beacuse she had a nice heiny, not flag skills.

Thanks for coming Rick, nice to meet you!

 

Yes there is...

I'm not good with the computers to grab and dump it. My spelling sucks too, as you have all noticed.

 

This is SUCH a refreshing show (and thread).

I don't see it being logical to be there with a car of my own, but I want to be at the second, for sure.

 

I forgot his name but he did a great job. He added a lot to the show. If you ask me he is a must for next year.

 

looks like a TON of fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to all involved!

 

That dude was hysterical. And definitely a highlight of the day.

 

Fuckin A brother, that IS great news!

 

The Saturday or Sunday of Hershey week would be a great date for next year. You would probably get a bunch of guys like myself who would love to kill 2 birds with one stone.

 

heres one video of mine
