NHRA had a press release about their self described "wildly popular" Harley Davidson racing program.

I think HDs are cool enough, and Drag Racing them seems like a Fun thing also. I just did not recall these races.

I did a little research from 2013. What a huge embarassment this is! Many of the classes were not represnted or only had ONE bike show up! One race had two guys that raced in two different categories and were the only two that showed!

I get it, NHRA probably bundled it with their ProStock Bike rules payoff deal, but to describe it as wildly popular?

Shows how inept their Marketing is. If they think this program is successful, they must think Stock and SuperStock is awesome!

Now back to reality...

Maybe we should rent some Harleys and support this class when we are racing our lowly Class Cars!
