Why these things aren't in the NHRA Pro lineup defies common sense.

There's a limited amount of Bikes AND Tracks you can stop them at. Additionally, they are more prone to putting riders on the Tarmac.

Who was racing Larry? I remember after Elmer's accident you had Larry and Tony Lang, the others weren't competitive!

The Nitro Harleys were running Chutes in Houston, guess that is the ticket anymore

Hey Sherman,

Dave is riding Greg Pollards fuel bike. Korry will be back riding with the Alwines new bike this year.

Thanks for the correction. Its great to see Dave out there. I haven't talked to him in years, but back in the day we had twin bikes+ used to travel together in the Prostar days.

I spoke to a T/F Harley rider at Norwalk. He said the Chutes are the same as the Dragboat drivers use on there Chutejackets.

It's too bad Elmer isn't around to see the performances of the bikes today? I'm curious how much longer Elmer would have kept racing had he not had his accident?

 

[Nick Name]

Couple of years max.

Indy '96 was brutal. I believe we lost Elmer the day after losing Blaine Johnson.
