That article said it all. Susuki engines come from V&H. Buell engine's are S&S. Only Eddy and Andrew get the HD motors. All motors are suppose to be available to any team that wants to run them but HD is the exception.
And who is unbeatable? LOL Thanks

Get the point Kofla? There's allot more involved in the "dominating" Harleys, the rules are made so the Harleys will win.

Got it. Reading George Bryce's CycleDrag interview on the link 1bad included clearly explained the whole NHRA fiasco.

If those 30 year old Susuki engines were still the best thing out there, don't you think Andrew at least would still be running one? LOL

Ok, if they did boycott a event, what does that prove? Harley and Vance and hines are the sponsor for the class.
It's a loose-loose situation for everyone not on their team.

Well if everyone else was to sit out a couple races it may provide some leverage to even out the rules. I don't think NHRA really cares about the MC class though. I'm sure they would just as well see it go. More time for the cars to run.

I agree. Very few people go to watch the bikes.
To me, if they have time to run them, it brings that many more people to the event.

Not NHRA...NHDA...National Harley Davidson Association. The bike side of NHRA is boring as hell. Gettin' to where I don't care to watch the bikes run. We all know what's gonna happen. Like TV Land...all re-runs.
