Local Dragstrip decided to stop letting bikes run at the strip, kid on a 'Busa showing off crashed and burned. No more bikes allowed. Guess it will be a long trip to go run bike.

Sorry to hear that, you say BURNED! What exactly happened? Seems a bit of a rash reaction, any other reasons that caused the track managment to BAN bikes?

I travel 95 miles to get to the nearest strip, how far will you need to travel?

If the track is an NHRA track and you are a member I would think they can't ban bikes. If they are NHRA, call the NHRA main office and file a complaint. Can't hurt any. Thats crazy banning a whole class, you ban the trouble maker. Good luck

That sucks. There is always one idiot that ruins it for the rest of us. I have to travel 120mi to nearest track. Which is Las Vegas.

Found out little more last night, seems they been having ongoing problems with bikes. Been having lot of trouble with them, and decided to ban all bikes.

Not an NHRA track as far as I know, just a local private strip in Paragould Arkansas.
