1991 Sidecar Grand Prix Laguna Seca

[@00xxLExx00]

Thanks for posting this!!! I'm Peter (not Stephen) Essaff riding with Egbert Streuer. The ride of a lifetime for sure. The shifter linkage broke and put us out of this race. Egbert was just taking it easy, as he had a new passenger and wanted to save something for the end. Sidecars rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Good stuff. I remember it at the time, my first full season passengering in the uk and these guys were Gods.

@PeterMayer, back then the sidecar races were part of the Moto GP's. They usually race last and both 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines were allowed. Those were some good ol' racing days!

[@willbest1547]

Man, those were the days. 500, 250, 125 and Sidecars! Nowadays...we got the Spanish Cup...meh

[@BenBen5501]

Cool. Thanks for posting.

[@PeterMayer]

I didn't know they even had side car racing at this level here in the states. I wonder if they still do it.

[@FERRARIDOUG355]

I wish Pete Essaff had his name correctly identified in this video.

What a shame it cuts out the Kumagaya / Houghton crash on the cork screw. They're shown after the break at 14:30. Recently visited the track and it looks a lot steeper in real life. Not many crash there and live to tell the tale. These were good GP years with the sidecar teams.

GREAT! Where do you ever come up with this stuff? I never knew this footage still existed. What a treat to see these world class outfits racing around one of my favorite tracks that I know so well.
