What race class?

[Shane fawbush]

Found a video with 2 guys on busa's were racing. They said they were the fastest 60 inch bikes around. Then they said they were 100 % street legal with license plates and insurance... how ever these bikes were slammed with built turbo charged 450-500 HP motors. Can anyone tell me what class this would have been? Is it still a class? It really interested me because it wasn't to far away from a factory looking bike. No bars and wasn't stretched out 2 feet. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

Not enough interest in riding short bikes ~ so 60" class died out from low participation *

And yes the girl in the middle ~ is pro stock mx racer Karen Stoffer *

That is a pretty open question. There are several sanctioning bodies for motorcycle drag racing. Each one can have different names for different classes. If you're interested you can learn more about the sanctioning bodies and the classes here... https://www.dragbike.com/

I wanted to thank you both Red and Popie for taking the time to respond to my question. I'm at work on a pretty busy line so I can't sit down and read a bunch of info or I would have. Thanks again.

One thing I have grown to realize about drag racing Shane ~ motorcycles are the red headed step children of this sport *

Only times you will see large crowds for a motorcycle event ~ is MotoGP or Santa Pod all motorcycle drag race *
