1989 FXR

That's right, we drag race a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The name of our team is Hawgs Nutz Racing, and we race with the All Harley Drag Race Association (AHDRA).
With our basically stock 80 cubic inch motor we finished in the top ten in the nation our first year on the circuit. That's not bad for our rookie year, but we ride, wrench and race Harley's, so that wasn't good enough. We are now fitting a 105.6 inch motor into our 89 FXR which we will be running in 10:50 class in '98. We will also be racing with the American Drag Bike Association (ADBA) and some AMA Prostar races.
If you  would like to come watch or RACE with us, contact us through our sponsor, TLC Racing at 330-644-0709 for details about scheduled race dates and locations. The same phone number can be used for anyone that would like to help sponsor our team this coming year. Harley's are expensive and racing them just increases the cost.
You can e-mail us at hawgsnutzracing@juno.com.
Your support of our team will be appreciated.

RANDY

HNR 98 Update

Hawgs Nutz Racing debut their new killer motor during Daytona Bike Week at the Bithlo Races on March 4 and 5. Preliminary testing has the engine putting out 124 HP at the rear wheel. This should make for an interesting ride. The V-Twin Cafe will be following Randy's progress at the track and report back any interesting happenings. Maybe we can get a good look at what goes into turning a street bike into a potent drag bike.

HNR 98 Update

It's not been a good start to our team's race season. After experiencing clutch/transmission problems in Daytona , keeping our FXR from qualifying, our Sportster managed to make first round then sucked a valve. Rockingham was pretty much the same story. Electrical problems shut the big bike down, and the Sportster went out second round due to slow RT on the lights. Well now comes Reading PA. Guess what, the Sportster went out second round due bad RTs again. I got to make him practice a whole lot more. My bike went out first round AGAIN. This time due to miscommunications between my crew chief and me. I'll eat the crow on this one. BUT, we did manage to pull our ETs down to 10.97. With the gearing change (happening as we speak) we should be right at 10.70. And that's where we want to be. We're still running small HD heads so we're limited to smaller flow numbers. We decided to stay with these cause they still give us the numbers we need for this class. Now for the bad news. I managed to fracture my ankle at the Reading PA race. So, I will be out of competition for the next 6 weeks. This should give us time to fine tune both bikes for serious competition
