2 Wheel Xtreme Spring Fling to join AMA Yamaha Superbike Challenge weekend

FONTANA, Calif. (March 18, 2004) — Seven categories of side-by-side “motorcycle only” drag racing will take to California Speedway’s quarter-mile dragstrip during the AMA Yamaha Superbike Challenge weekend on Saturday, April 3rd.

The John Burr Yamaha Superstreet Spring Fling will feature Cruiser E.T., Street E.T., Pro E.T., Superstreet (900-1300cc Street), Super Gas (9.90 Index), Super Comp (8.90 Index) and Top Gas (8.20 Index) categories that will fly down the strip in a tremendous show of speed and style. Each class winner is guaranteed a Spring Fling award for the mantle and $100. All Participants must meet or exceed 2004 NHRA rules.

Joining the fling will be a little chrome, especially for those that like to show and shine their rides. A custom motorcycle show will be open to all two-wheel asphalt machines. Best in Show, Best American Thunder, Best Metric Cruiser, Best Sportbike, Best Hybrid/Concept, Best Effect, Best Mini Motto, Best Modified, Best Paint, Most Club Participation, Awesome Orphan and Daily Rider will compose 12 judged categories.

Dubbed as the “official” SoCal Clubs Bike Night, area bike clubs are encouraged to come park and hangout with their clubs, fellow riders or other clubs. Special motorcycle parking will be set-aside specifically for the two-wheel partisan making it easy to ride in and park in the heart of the action.

The event would not be complete without some one-wheel action. Tony “T-Bone” Fuller, an AMA Supercross rider will be showing off his wheelie antics. Also joining the excitement will be “Fates Union,” a Fontana band, playing their originals as well as select cover tunes.

This Spring Fling event will mark Team No Limit Racing’s second motorcycle event at California Speedway, as the first was held December 13th. Gates open at 1 p.m., racing commences on the strip at 3 p.m. and all activities will wrap up at 11 p.m. on Saturday, April 3rd. The cost for spectators and crew members is $10, drag racers is $40 and custom show entrants is $20 with children 12 and under are free.
