During practice at the 1975 TransAMA at St. Peters I hiked back behind the fences to a turn in the trees at the far side of the track. There were no other spectators around as I watched from a few feet back and in the woods as riders came by. DeCoster is in perfect form and concentrating on the turn as he sets up for a big downhill flight into the valley.

Jim Weinert and Steve Stackable chat in the pits after the '75 TransAMA. Weinert's kid is there too.

It was a sunny but cool day at the Herman National in 1977. Gary Semics finds time to take a cat nap by relaxing right on the grass in the pits before practice.

Bob Hannah rode his Yamaha mini to the trophy presentation at Agency in 1977. I wonder how easy it was to ride carrying that trophy and what ever happened to all the young Hannah fans who were just kids at the time of this photo?

I visited the pits for as long as I could after my first TransAMA in '75. I had a long drive back to Kansas City but I stopped to take a picture of the nearly empty track at St. Peters as I started toward the parking lot beyond the hill in the distance. It is kind of of surprising to see all the trash thousands of race fans leave behind.
