Rain may have postponed Sunday’s entire day of competition at the NHDRO Summer Celebration, but Saturday, Aug. 8, was enough time for McIntosh Machine & Fabrication Pro Street bikes to put on a blistering show at Lucas Oil Raceway’s famous quarter mile on the west side of Indianapolis.

No Pro Streeter went quicker than Mark Paquette and his turbocharged Suzuki Hayabusa, the number one qualifying combination with a 6.841 at 205.72 mph. Jeremy Teasley is right behind with a 6.845 at 208.68, and Paquette’s teammate (and points leader) Bud Yoder is third with a 6.88.
