Wow! This tells the Yamaha story in a way everyone can understand. Imagine
how Vesco felt, coming in on a Yamaha 250cc nearly two laps ahead of the
field of all makes, including 5OOcc’s! Not only did Fumio Ito win the 250cc class
against all comers but beat last year’s winner by 1 minute and 29 seconds!
If all this was not enough YAMAHA 250cc established a new Daytona track
record (formerly held by a 5OOcc) with an astounding speed of more than 131
miles per hour.
