1st annual Victory Race at Daytona Bike Week
2007 was a good year for winning! It started in Daytona Bike Week at the 1st annual Victory Race. Piloted by "Torch" (far left in photo),
we posted the quickest & fastest times and also received the top eliminator award. Originally, we had slated a 110 inch build for this event but a Dealer from California liked it better (and bought it!). With only 2 days left before departing for Florida we THREW together a 100 inch motor with parts we had laying around. This posted us a 11.59 et @ 121 mph speed on the bottle.

6/24/07 Victory vs Harley Meet @ Maryland International Speedway
Lloyd had to stay home for his son's baptism but sent Torch off to smoke the competition. Once again we were Top Eliminator with the quickest time and fastest MPH running a best of 10.93 @ 123 mph off the bottle on our 100 inch motor.
9/23/07 3 for 3 at New England Dragway, Epping NH
We found out the competition is getting faster, most are running our motors! We had some stiff competition and some fast bikes. Those Maine Dealers are putting out some fast Iron. Our friend Dave from PMRT drove out from Ohio to race with us and posted the 2nd quickest Victory. With Lloyd in the drivers seat this time we still had the Quickest and Fastest Victory and enough to put all the Harley's on the side line and take the winners circle.
YES, we've been playing with Turbo's also. Having seen some of the other turbo projects out there I stated, "I wouldn't do a turbo unless it made 200 hp!" Then I had someone bite, OOPs, did I just open mouth & insert foot? GNAW! We slammed it home at 193 hp and a clutch that slipped after 2 pulls. We then go so busy we never did finish tuning it, but we know it's capability is well over 200hp! Anyone interested in being the first to twist the throttle on 250hp let us know.
After all - We Are HARD-ON HORSEPOWER!!
