Racing fans will be treated to autograph sessions with past Yamaha racing champions including Pierre Karsmakers, Broc Glover, Steve Baker, Scott Russell, Gary Jones, Jamie James, Jeff Emig, Thomas Stevens, Rick Burgett, Don Emde, Kel Carruthers, Mike Bell, Randy Mamola, Doug Henry, Rich Oliver, Damon Bradshaw, Wayne Rainey, and this year’s inductee into the “Legends of Laguna Seca” and four time World Champion, Eddie Lawson. The one and only Larry Maiers will also return to provide interviews and “color commentary” with each rider throughout the weekend.

The autograph sessions will be part of the many activities planned for the “Yamaha Marketplace” and are scheduled at fan friendly times on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

“We are extremely proud to host these Yamaha racing icons and provide fans the rare opportunity to meet so many of them in one place,” said Bob Starr, General Manager of National Communications, “and of course it gives us all the opportunity to remember all of their contributions to Yamaha’s strong racing heritage.”
