Race day at Lions Raceway

Race day at Lions Raceway. Drive it in. Squeeze in as many runs as you can. Drive it home.

Royal Enfield

I’ve been looking at those new Royal Enfield bikes recently. They are really cut right out of the past in a lot of ways. I dug this shot out of my lions raceway archive and it reminded me that they just don’t make em like they used to. There’s another shot of this bike and rider/mechanic in our header. Some serious hours and engineering in this beast. Note the Bonneville National sticker on the tank corner. I’d love to know what kind of speeds this guy has squeezed out of this thing. Welcome to the chopper blog.

Drag Bikes from the Past – Mor’-Xpense!

Here’s a few pics of stretch with his harley drag bike out at lions raceway from way back when. This thing has it all. Great lines, nothing to hold on to and a face only a mother could love! These pics are great too. Lots of detail including the rad custom tank, school bell air filter cover, finned case, and that springer front end! Love those bobber style race bikes! Speed club approved!

Vintage Lions Raceway Pics

Welcome to the chopper blog. I should point out that my personal preference is speed over looks. Not sure where I found these but where ever they came from, I love looking to them for design inspiration. It’s not Midwest but it will certainly do.
