Love to see the early days of Superbike racing and Larry was a great photographer! My helmet is off to him!

Ottis,
Thanks for stopping by the site. Kosar was one of the first really great independent teams in AMA Superbike. You guys really stepped up to rival the factory teams. I hope all is going well for you these days.

Otis took 3rd that day and surprised a lot of the factory teams by climbing on the podium in only our 2nd race since the team was formed.
Thanks for posting !! Meril Moen, Houston, Tx

Marshall,
That’s right. Polen was a member of the team and had some great Superbike finishes with them. Good memory!
