Meanwhile, just outside the tent the racing was great. The view from the top of the hill was good enough for Brian J Nelson, that's him getting those great shots we have all seen on "Soup" and just about everywhere else.

William Swenson's ultra rare 1975 900 Super Sport. One of 200 built in the Ducati race shop, most were sent to other countries (Australia for the most part) and raced, so no longer even close to original. This one is complete, original, and headed to Laguna Seca as the overall round winner. It's one of the rarest bikes we saw in all 5 rounds, and a great example why this event is so special when it gives people a chance to learn about bikes like this.
