Definitely an iconic photo....   

A time capsule for sure.

It's a really blurry screen shot (I don't have any clear pics) but even as bad as it is, I don't think it needs an introduction.

I was there and saw it in person. Almost 30 years later I can still see it - and can't believe he survived.

The use of a few screen shots in here reminds me of some of the most iconic video of all time.  Already featured on here: Tomac wheeling through that whole section at Daytona; JS, RC and TP as kids...

Where's that picture of Windham railing first corner, casually taking a tear-off?

That is one twisted situation in that section. If you've ever ridden this track, you'd know how unnatural this position is. Completely 180 out. Epic.
