Re: What's with all the Harley crap at Atlanta?
Think we had the same thing at Houston. Wasn't many of them. Sure didn't put butts in the bleachers. Was nothing to see. Harley probably pays to have them there.

Re: What's with all the Harley crap at Atlanta?
Chad,
With the demise of the AHDRA, H-D & NHRA put together a series that (as the Hawk stated) races once in each division this year. It gives all the H-D racers a series to race & earn points and earn a national championship. Ed was right, we had them @ Houston and I think all said & done there were less than 20 total. Hasn't been an issue at any event yet that I've seen and the Nitro Harleys are kinda cool...... CRAZY but cool. Unk

Re: What's with all the Harley crap at Atlanta?
The bikes brought some more spectators to the track, and helped to pay the bills. Like it or not, only the class racer diehards like myself will pay to watch cars run 115+mph. The crowds come for the nitro circus.The bikes were pretty neat and did not "clutter" up the race. It could have been rice rockets, stereo's and bikinis lol! Don Jackson

That's just an excuse for NHRA being unwilling to spend any money or effort promoting class racing. Which is just another symptom of the ills of NHRA.
