What a cool race. Superbikes against 2stroke rockets. What a power different.

I was in the in field at this race, met Wayne Rainey he was super nice

Impressed with that Honda Spencer was riding

Thanks for posting this icOn race of my lifetime. Dave Despain still to this day has to think he called one of the biggest showdowns. In American road racing history. King vs Fast Freddie. Freddie is my age and he was my biggest hero. Then Eddie then Kenny. Sorry Kenny...you are still great tho.

Great race..

love the New England accent!!

real nice footage thank you !!

Thank You so much for uploading this - I have been searching for years to find video footage of it to see Freddie ride the special 4 cylinder Honda in the special Daytona livery for a model I was making of his motorcycle. The race did not disappoint. Thanks again ,

Roberts Spencer Despain Singleton. A HOF broadcast hand to to hand competition from my lifetime.

Desmo you got to remember this is vhs tape, which normally meant back in the day it is MONO not digital stereo like we are used too.

Yamaha Daytona "special" yeah TZ750 AKA Square 4 840 that "no one knows about"

So, 700 cc Yamahas? Surely that's bollocks.

OW 69 square four two strokes, displacing anywhere from 680 to 750 cc's [It never was confirmed] They were built specifically for Daytona, horsepower likely in the 160/175 range.

Daytona 100, 26 laps. Not 200 57 laps
