AMA National NHIS, June 20, 1998


Each year the Vintage sidecars put on an exciting show for the spectators at the AMA Superbike National at NHIS, and this year was particularly exciting since the sidecars saved the day, by drying out the track when the AMA Pro racers were rained out.  A spectacular 4-way race at the front (and more frantic activity at the back of the pack) kept the spectators on their feet instead of heading for shelter.
