Default AHDRA canceled the 2013 season

no all harly drag racing this year they canceled there season due to poor sponsor ship. i guess the merge with the NHRA was the final blow.

big fan of the n.h.r.a. and pro stock motorcycle. so, are they going to be running the nitro harleys at the national events? exhibition class? is it going to be like pro-mod for motorcycles?
do you think they will be in gainesville for the gatornationals in march?

pro stock motorcycle runs 17 races during the mellow yellow series...hopefully the nitro bikes will run all 17. gainesville is the first race of the year for the pro stock bikes-so that stands to reason the nitro bikes would start there. that is a very fast track and the racing is always entertaining.
you can go to bike week in daytona and catch the gatornationals on your way home. see you there.

well, maybe you should. there is nothing like the feeling when you're in the stands and they fire up those top fuel bikes. you can just feel the pistons thumping up and down. feels like they are about a foot in diameter

it's truly awesome to watch.
