I recently raced in Laguna Seca Twins Cup Moto America. Me and my son snapped pics throughout the weekend with my new R5. It ended up being a super dope and epic weekend with us getting some top 20 finishes. These are a few snapped around our paddock and grid. Thanks for looking!

Great shots Joel!
Brings back memories of my annual pilgrimage to Laguna Seca for the Superbike and/or FIM GP500 races. I recall shooting film of Kenny Roberts, Randy Mamola & Freddie Spencer, especially at the corkscrew. You could walk around the paddock & talk to the riders! Haven't been back in over a decade.
Hey Joel, congrats on the finishes and a kicka$$ weekend.
Classic, great shots on the last two. Dig the "face to face" conversation shot. Seeing the AGV helmet brings back memories of my younger days, canyon carving in SoCal. Never made the track scene, though, but certainly appreciate it.

Wing.
I actually had the chance to talk a little to Wayne Rainey and Kenny Roberts this last weekend. I was humbled that such legends took the time to give encouraging words to me. Then to be the oldest Twins Cup rider to grid (58), have my wife on the grid with me and then to race was an amazing experience. Me and my team plan on racing the full season next year. The fan experience was a bit different for me. Im usually on the other side of it. . Thanks for looking!

Thanks Ken, Appreciate that. My son took the photos of me. I took a lot of the other riders. I am showing him how to shoot and he is loving it. Pretty cool. On a secondary note, to be the oldest Twins Cup rider to grid (58), have my wife on the starting grid with me and then to race was nothing short of amazing. After 3 years of grinding to get to this level it was very satisfying. Now it's on to the next step.....How to get to the top 10! Thanks for looking Ken!

So I'm jealous, as my racing days are done. Great while it lasted. I did make it to Willow Springs, but never Laguna Seca.
And you aren't crazy. You're driven. Crazy would be doing it without leathers
Excellent shots. Someone had a good vantage point.
