Default New NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle Record

Andrew Hines stunned the Gateway crowd when he turned in the quickest pass in the history of the Pro Stock Motorcycle class with a 6.860 @ 192.14 MPH aboard his Screamin’ Eagle Harley-Davidson for the No. 1 spot. Hines had earlier run a 6.920, which provide the necessary one-percent back-up required to establish a NHRA elapsed time record. It was the third straight pole for Hines and the 25th of his career.

Congrat's guys, I'm not surprised. That's a Bad Bike! I should know Of course they have a lot more money in their engine than I do, but that engine has ton's of room to grow (if you've got the cash) and all the crap the NHRA has been trying to do the last couple yrs to stop the Rod from ruling and still we're winning

Thumbs down not really a record

The NHRA rules are swayed heavily in HD's favor. The engine size for HD is 2.6 liters while the jap bikes only get 1.5 liters. I would be ashamed to even claim the record.

Swayed in there favor???? The rice-a-roni bikes weigh in 20-25 lbs. less than the HD also. The power to weight ratio is dead on.

So you joined to say that? You must be really insecure about your bike.
