1963 BSA Gold Star / Jody Nicholas wins 150 Mile National Championship

Speed: - with dependability - combined with BSA superb handling, and powerful braking enabled Jody Nicholas to win both 100 mile and 150 mile National Road Racing Championships in 1963! Meadowdale Raceway (near Chicago) Illinois, August 11, 1963; riding his fast BSA Gold Star in brilliant style, Jody Nicholas, 1963 100 Mile Champion, was unbeatable in the 150 Mile National at Meadowdale. In winning, the "mighty mite" from Tennessee lapped the entire field, established a new course record, beat all records including those set by racing cars. Jody's winning BSA was run without a fairing, against a large field of top esperts many with streamlining. Another great BSA victory! 1963 BSA Gold Star / Jody Nicholas wins 150 Mile National Championship 2-Page Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com CLICK THE PICTURE TO "BUY IT NOW"
