    This Reversible Marlboro was signed by these three drivers for me at the Harley Davidson South Motorcycle Dealer in South Dade County Florida.
    The Drivers met a select group of us there at the Southern Most Harley Davidson dealership, Peterson's Harley Davidson, and from there we had a Police and Helicopter Escort to the Homestead Motorsports Complex.
    From there we were allowed on the track, with our Harley's,  and were able to take approx 9 laps, full speed (!) along with the drivers who traveled with us on their own personal bikes.
    It was an incredible day to say the least.
    HARDLY EVER WORN OTHER THAN ON THE TRACK FOR THE EVENT
    PURPOSELY KEEP STORED & PROTECTED IN PERFECT CONDITION!
    The Ticket which will come to you, with the jacket, was for the actual race which happened that Sunday.

    TRACY & VASSER CLOSE TO 200 MPH MARLBORO GRAND PRIX OF MIAMI
    AT INDY CAR SPRING TRAINING UPCOMING EVENTS
    The inaugural Indy Car Spring Training last week
    in Homestead Florida saw speeds near the 200
    mph barrier from both Paul Tracy and Jimmy
    Vasser.
    Celebrity Bartender Event :
    When: Wednesday, February 28
    6:00 - 9 :30 p.m .
    The first annual "Spring Training" was a tune-up
    for most of the top Indy Car teams as they
    prepared for the season-opening Marlboro Grand
    Prix of Miami March 1-3 .
    Ten-time Indy Car winner Paul Tracy, driving the
    96 Marlboro Penske Mercedes, led the field at
    194.846 mph last Tuesday before Jimmy Vasser,
    in a Reynard Honda, pushed the top speed to
    195 .900 mph on Friday .
    Tracy did turn in the fastest road-course lap at
    111 .967 mph.
    "The car worked really well," said Tracy last
    week. "We've done a lot of testing already this
    winter and we've learned a lot about how the car
    reacts to changes and different track and weather
    conditions. I think we've got a great car and
    we've also got very good horsepower . The guys
    at Ilmor and Mercedes have been working very
    hard all winter and the power is definitely there ."
    Tracy's teammate, Al Unser Jr ., who is the
    leading active driver on the all-time Indy Car
    winner's list with 31 victories, tested at the
    Homestead Motorsports Complex on Monday
    before heading North to Sebring for road testing .
    "We were trying some different things at
    Homestead," said Unser Jr . "We went to test, not
    to go all-out qualifying laps . But I'm very happy
    with the car ."
