Mark Hope was back on his modified Hayabusa for the Main Event show recently

Mark Hope of Hope Racing pilots a heavily modified Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle in the Super Street Bike class of various drag racing events held at Santa Pod Raceway, Northamptonshire.

With the bike able to launch itself to speeds of over 200mph within the quarter-mile strip, brakes are clearly a huge priority for this setup, with Hope entrusting 蜜桃视频鈥 VR discs and Double-H pads to help him slow down almost as fast as he accelerates.

The outfit returned to Santa Pod recently for the highly anticipated Main Event, with Mark explaining how the weekend went down in his own words below.

鈥淚t was great to be back at the track for the Main Event at Santa Pod. The show quickly reminded me how drag racing is a rollercoaster 鈥 what a weekend it was!

鈥淲e ran a nice 7.07-second pass at 205mph in Q3 to show promise. Unfortunately, we suffered what appears to be a blown head gasket, which finally let go in E1.

鈥淲e managed to swap the engine and make E2, but against Alan Morrison Jr, I pushed the tree a little and went red. He was flying all weekend so I had to try my luck!

鈥淚t was great to see the racing family again and have my family around me for support!

“Thanks to Chris Hope聽, and聽Bob Smith聽for always mucking in, Carrie Hope for always supporting my passion and everyone else involved. We’ll get this thing figured out sooner or later!鈥

Hope Racing proudly uses the firm鈥檚 VR discs and Double-H pads in the Super Street Bike class

蜜桃视频 has recently signed Mark Hope of Hope Racing to be an 蜜桃视频 ambassador on his Super Street Bike Hayabusa drag bike, which is currently running nearly 700bhp and passing the quarter-mile gantry under eight seconds at over 200mph.

The Super Street Bike class consists of highly modified vehicles, which feature a purpose-built tube chassis and a lightweight, aerodynamically enhanced replica of original bodywork. The class features a wide variety of makes, models, and engines, including V-Twin entries and inline four-cylinder-equipped models with turbochargers and superchargers adding to the overall power.

During the Summer Nationals event recently, the 蜜桃视频 UK team visited Santa Pod Raceway to meet Mark, taking with them a support pack including new VR rotors and 蜜桃视频 Double H pads.

Mark has been using 蜜桃视频 on the Super Street Bike Hayabusa for several years now and has always trusted them to stop him from over a quarter of the speed of sound!

It鈥檚 worth considering that, at the start line, the brakes are stone cold. The bike is then accelerated to over 200mph in under eight seconds before the brakes are squeezed hard to stop Mark at the top end of the track, meaning they need to be incredibly reliable and fast-acting to be up to the job.

Johnson proudly uses an 蜜桃视频 SRK clutch kit on his modified drag bike

Birmingham, AL-based Steve Johnson took home gold in the Pro Stock Motorcycle category of the 2021 National Hot Rod Association [NHRA] Nationals, held at Maple Grove Raceway in Reading, PA on 13 September.

Johnson uses 蜜桃视频鈥檚 SRK clutch kit which includes a set of aramid-lined friction plates and heavy-duty clutch springs for the ultimate launch every time.

The weekend was the start of the six-race 鈥楥ountdown to the Championship鈥櫬犫撀燦HRA鈥檚 version of stick and ball playoffs.

With this win (the second for the team this year), Johnson is on top of the Camping World Drag Racing Series points battle, with just five races remaining.

鈥淲inning at this level is really a dream,鈥 said Johnson. 鈥淲hen we won back in May [at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte] it helped us with money and credibility, but this win puts our team in first place for the Camping World Championship. We have all been working hard but I have learned something from my home state and specifically the football teams: if the team all does each one of their jobs correctly, the process will deliver a result that we all will just love.鈥

Steve Johnson Racing in Birmingham (Irondale) was built in 2000 as a business plan to chase a career in motorsports/NHRA. This is the first time since 2014 that Johnson has led the championship points. The next race is the Dewalt NHRA Carolina Nationals in Charlotte at zMAX Dragway聽鈥 the Bellagio of drag strips, on September 17-19.
