Post by: Tony T on September 13, 2013, 03:55:28 pm: Hey Firko, you should rename the pics something obscure before posting.

Yeah...pretty dumb on my part. I never thought of the old double click thing. I'll have to play smarter ;D.
Who's the rider on the TM holding the trophy?

Doc gets the kiss from the trophy girl.....but we shouldn't be surprised to get a correct answer from our own "Mr Suzuki". Southern Californian dirt tracker Jim Odom got the gig for his Burt Reynolds like good looks. Burt was the biggest movie star in the world at the time so it made good business sense. It's scary to realise that the trophy girl hotty would today be a grandma in her sixties :o.

Who's this, and where?
