Pro Extreme Bike RESULTS

Twenty-Four teams representing 15 states made the trip to National Guard American Drag Racing League’s St, Louis race where only sixteen would get to race for the cash and the coveted Minuteman trophy. 

Travis Davis put on a driving clinic at this event. He qualifying number two, took out current class champ Billy Vose in the first round, overcoming Vose’s .005 RT, put a 004 light on  Keith Dennis and the won using a holeshot against Monte Campbell in the semifinals and another one to Ron Procopio in the final round.

In the semifinal win Davis put a massive holeshot on Campbell making his 4.286 hold up against a better 4.272. Then he encored in the finals. Procopio had a 4.265 elapsed time, and Davis a 4.268, but a .052 advantage off the starting line made Davis the winner over Procopio

Eric McKinney from Hamersville dropped the hammer on the field in qualifying (please forgive me I couldn’t resist) setting both Top Speed and Low ET with laps of 4.226 and 173.29. Pretty fast for a nitrous bike. McKinney got to the semis before being eliminated by Procopio.

Pro Jr. Dragster

They invited 16 Pro Jr. Dragsters and qualified them based on RT’s. Hallsville, Mo., driver Sklyler Daly qualified number one with a perfect triple-oh light. Two other drivers, Alexander Open and Janna Vogler, had double-oh lights. The best the winner, Ty Tutterow, could manage was an .052 good for 11th  position.

During Eliminations Tutterow had RT’s of .150, .037, .141, and a .186 in the final against Trevor Haisma, Wonder Lake, Ill., who had a .104. Tutterow ran .009 over his dial of 7.93 with a 7.942 and Haisma broke out by almost six hundredths.

The best reaction time and win in eliminations was recorded by KJ Nowling driving a brand new Jr Dragster. He had a .004 light in the quarters against Robert Vogler and won the race when Vogler went .001 red. Nowling lost to Tutterow when he broke out, running an 8.009 on his 8.02 dial. In the other lane Tutterow ran an 8.006 on his 7.93 dial.
