T
he "Good Ol' Days" returned to Daytona Inter-
national Speedway for the seventh annual day
of retro racing. Vintage Day is as much about
the bikes as it is about the racing (maybe even a little
more), and there were again some beautifully restored
and pristine gems ready to relive the glory days. It was
almost a shame to see them get dirty. As many pho
-
tos were taken in the pits as there were on the track,
and the bikes were impressive, to say the least. There
were plenty of old Suzukis, Hondas, Maicos, CZs, "pull
start" bikes, a few old Pentons and much more. Some
of the bikes were still being raced by their original
owners, which means they had spent nearly 50 years
wiping up oil leaks in the same place in the garage.
