The Woods of Wentzville

Neil Tolhurst was good enough to send in this photo from Mid-America Raceway in May of 1982, showing Lance David leading a pack aboard a Yamaha Vision. Look how thick the surrounding woods are. Almost jungle like. If you went into those woods at speed they might not have found you until the following winter.
