Awesome pictures. Love seeing the rigs. Also interesting and fun to remember all the different sponsers over the years and how they change.

for instance, the Yamalube/star rig is now the AJE team.
The TwoTwo rig is now Babbitts and it's for sale unless its been sold recently.

I was just going to comment a few of these rigs have been sold off and recycled to various teams. The MS/Suzuki/Albertson rig was previously owned by HRT.
One of MDK's trailers is what Reed bought for TwoTwo, then it got sold to Babbitt's after.

One of the RCH trailers (the hospitality rig) was leased from the TiLube group, it's been around for a bit with a few different teams leasing it. AG/Peters used it one summer, I think it was the N-Fab/Ti-Lube trailer back with Kiniry and Nicoletti, a few others have leased it...

No what I mean is how do they cope with speed bumps(if you have them in US) or uneven ground at tracks as it looks like very little ground clearance

I think some have air bags to get a little higher for driving and they lower once they've reached their home for the weekend.

Do the riders have someone to drive there motor homes to the races?

Man the setup Reed/RC/RD had was something else.

I cant see them pulling into a Loves Truck stop with all there signature on the side grabbing a hot dog for a 2 day travel to the next venue.

The top guys with motorhomes have guys that drive them to the races. They don't have time to drive them from round to round with training/practice, etc. They fly in and out.

Not sure what the pay is but I'm sure it's decent.

As I'm sure many of you know...the transport drivers do more than just drive the truck. They're an integral part of the team.

Yep. Drive the rig, clean it, help with set up and tear down, do groceries, cook, etc. List goes on for those guys.

I've heard guys thank the drivers on the podium before and think it's pretty cool. Marvin being one of them. Not many do and I understand since sponsors come first but it's nice to see them acknowledge everyone that is part of the team.

The tires that are in the middle of the trailer must scrub when turning or damage the blacktop.

They say nobody trained back then and todays guys are in much better shape. Lackey must not have gotten that memo because Lackey started when bikes had 3.78" of suspension.
