The All-American Rejects' stop at the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix comes in the midst of an international summer tour. Yamaha Weekend of Champions On hand to sign free commemorative posters will be past Yamaha road racing heroes Wayne Rainey, Eddie Lawson, Kel Carruthers, Randy Mamola, Rich Oliver, Steve Baker, Thomas Stevens, Jamie James, and Don Emde. Also on hand will be off-road racing legends Gary Jones, Broc Glover, Rick Burgett, Marty Moates, Doug Henry, and Jeff Emig. Autograph sessions will take place near the Yamaha display in the Yamaha Marketplace. Freestyle FMX Red Bull freestyle motocrosser Tommy "Tomcat" Clowers and Jeff Tilton will perform aerobatics and incredible maneuvers riding Yamahas during their TNT FMX demonstrations. Know for throwing down tricks such as Hart Attack Lookbacks, Catwalks, and Cat-Nacs, Clowers has medaled in every Winter and Summer X Games motocross discipline, won 14 amateur motocross titles, and had a successful supercross career. By 1999, however Clowers realized that what he really loved was performing insane tricks for large crowds, and he decided to make freestyle his career. Two years later, he set a 35-foot world record in the Summer X-Games Step-Up competition. Now, Clowers tours the country with Tilton, performing dozens of TNT FMX shows each year when not competing. Chris Pfeiffer, Motorcycle Stunt Rider For stunt riding for a more earthbound nature, German Christian Pfeiffer is the man, and he's doing his thing this weekend. A stunt rider since 1996, Pfeifer has performed all over the world on big street bikes, though he got his start in trials. The Red Bull stunt rider does wheelies, stoppies, and burnouts, and skates behind his own motorcycle with such aplomb that he was named the 2003 Stunt Rider World Champion and the 2004 European Stunt Riding Champion. He also owns several world records, and his show is always a crowd favorite. "The Doctor, The Tornado And The Kentucky Kid" movie screening at the Golden State Theater THE DOCTOR, THE TORNADO AND THE KENTUCKY KID is a feature-length documentary telling the inside story of the 2005 Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. The 95 minute film gets up close and personal with Nicky Hayden, Colin Edwards, John Hopkins and the rest of the MotoGP field as the Americans work through their quest to win at the home grand prix. The film also offers behind-the-scenes access to the American riders, including a trip to Edwards' Texas home and follows Hayden through the finish line for his first Grand Prix win.
