Hearing that uncorked Z! making the lap around Daytona gives me goosebumps!

Nice find. Good to see that complete video.

i just got done watching a netflix movie called duhamel adreneline rush......about miguel ...but as would be expected the whole family is in the movie and a lot of folks from around the family talk about yvon and his drive to win on anything ...also a lot of quick shots of them in miguels childhood and yvon on race bikes....it is during 2003-2004 and miguel is on a rc51 for most of it-cbr1000rr towards the end....it is a good watch and made me think of our canadian freinds ..as it switches from french to english and back......
