Description:
'68 Seeley Norton Commando at AMA Vintage Grand National Championships, Mid Ohio, July 26, 2009. I was gridded in the last row of the second wave and had a group of 350 GP bikes in front of me. In front of them was a group of Middleweight Superbikes that went off in a first wave. I was able to get a great start and made my way past all bikes from the 2nd wave by Turn One. I then set out to chase down the Superbikes from the first wave. I managed to pass all bikes and not only led my class but got the overall win as well. Unfortunately I forgot to turn on my camera until about the 3rd or 4th lap, so I missed all the action in the beginning, but you can see me catch the last Superbike at about 6:00. My camera worked well, but I still have to figure out how to get better sound and less wind noise. -Kenny Cummings NYC www.nycnorton.com

'68 Seeley Norton Commando in AHRMA BEARS Race, Daytona International Speedway, March 2, 2009 Unfortunately my camera was not working for this race, so fast guy Doug macrae let me post this footage taken from his H-2-THE-B 1972 Norton. I was gridded in pole (to the left of Doug) in the BEARS class, which was lined up behind 350GP (why?). We both got a great start, but Doug went around the outside of the 350 bikes and got through traffic quicker. Good cameo by Dave Roper on his 350 Harley ...
