Mickey Thompson 60" Pro Sportbike class

There is a new class that is sweeping the nation, and it's called the Mickey Thompson 60" Pro Sportbike class. It's got more talent in it than American idol! ROCK & MIR promoters have decided to change the Mickey Thompson 60" Pro Sportbike class permanently to a 32 bike field. The class could be very well looking at 30+ bikes per event trying to qualify, and ROCK & MIR promoters want everyone to be able to race. This change will be for the entire 2003 season and will go in effect on May 10-11 at Rockingham Dragway for the rescheduled date.

The 60" class was started at Maryland International Raceway in 2001, and after it's first year Steve Earwood from Rockingham Dragway decided he wanted a piece of the action also. In 2002, the class then moved to an 8 race series between ROCK & MIR. Since then the participation and interest for the class has grown substantially! It has every single message forum on the internet buzzing! Speed Shops across the country are building bikes to compete in the class for bragging rights. Privateers are making investments in their 60" bikes, and it has become the most talked about class in the sport of motorcycle drag racing. So, stay tuned this season for some of the best motorcycle drag racing action around, the Mickey Thompson 60" Pro Sportbike class, now a 32 bike field!!!
