Went out to the Harley Drags at State Capital raceway in Baton rouge ,Louisiana yesterday. Lots of beautiful drag harleys out there, not a whole lot of spectators or bikes for the "bike show" oh well. Thought I would share some photos.

 

Some mean looking machines, thanks!

 

 

Thanks for the pics.

 

Good Stuff >>Thanks

 

Cool pictures! Thanks for sharing these!

 

What kind of times were they runnin?.,,

 

Interested in what the shovel ran... Sweet pics, thanks!

 

Well there were several classes, the nitro funny bikes were only running 1/8 mile due to high winds but they were hitting 160-170mph in the 1/8! the dressers were all mid 10's low 11's! they were bad a$$!

 

The shovel was my buddy's bike. He just bought the bike and this was his first time taking it out. he was hitting low 11's which I thought was a great first day on the bike but I think he was disappointed. He really couldn't get the bike to launch for ****. He said " if I could just get it to hook up and go straight" I just laughed and said that's pretty much drag racing in a nut shell!

I think he will be able to get in the 10's with some practice, that bike has run 9's with another, extremely talented and much smaller rider. Running a bike that powerful is a steep learning curve, he'll get it.
