Orient Express Racing Pro Street

Winner – Rodney Williford
Runner-up – Ryan Bonitatis

Orient Express Pro Street: 230+ MPH Chaos Unleashed at Rockingham

The 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown may have lost a qualifier to rain, but Mother Nature couldn’t stop the storm the Orient Express Racing Pro Street class brought to Rockingham Dragway. Seventeen of the world’s fastest turbo and supercharged bikes rolled in—and they weren’t here to cruise.

During qualifying, four riders cracked the 230 MPH mark, lighting up the scoreboards and the stands. Rodney Williford once again proved why he’s the king of this game, locking in the #1 spot with a monstrous 6.372 at 235.73 MPH. Mark Rendeluk wasn’t far behind with a 6.387 at a blazing 237.72 MPH, followed by Jason Dunigan (6.423 at 235.97). Justin Shakir (6.424 at 230.89) made a strong comeback after missing the cut at the last race to round out the top four.

The biggest upset of round one? Rookie Spencer Claycomb. Making his Pro Street debut, Claycomb grabbed a round one win over Jason Dunigan with a 6.683 at 216.97 MPH. That win earned him a spot on the legendary Pro Street GOAT List at #35—but his run ended in round two at the hands of a dialed-in Ryan Bonitatis.

Bonitatis stayed hot, taking out heavy hitter Mark Rendeluk in the semi-finals with a deadly .056 holeshot and a 6.463 over Rendeluk’s quicker but losing 6.414.

That set up Bonitatis for his first final-round appearance of the season… but standing in the other lane was the always-lethal Rodney Williford.

Bonitatis did everything right—he grabbed the tree with a .020 reaction time to Williford’s .030. But Williford doesn’t chase—he takes. And with a jaw-dropping 6.310 at 237.72 MPH, Williford shut the door on anyone thinking his reign could be taken.

The message is loud and clear: if you want the Pro Street crown, you’ll have to rip it from Rodney Williford’s hands—and he’s not letting go anytime soon.

DME Racing Real Street

Real Street Turns Scandalous at Rockingham: Records Fall and Controversy Rises

The DME Racing Real Street class brought the chaos, controversy, and competition to the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown at Rockingham Dragway. With 21 machines locked and loaded, the field was stacked, the stakes were high, and the weekend turned out to be one for the history books—for reasons both thrilling and troubling.

Brandon Litten
Brandon Litten

Brandon Litten lit the fuse early in qualifying with a run that sent shockwaves through the pits. Breaking Andy Simon’s previous MPH record of 199.49 set on his Harley-Davidson, Litten broke the sacred 200 mph barrier with a 200.27 mph pass—rewriting the class record books.

But speed doesn’t always translate to victory.

Litten powered his way to the semifinals, only to throw it away with a heartbreaking -.0247 red light against Chris Moore. Moore, already a final-round regular this season, had dispatched Candace Bubb and Anibal Merced with surgical precision. Awaiting him in the final was a hungry and focused Courtlan Whiting—who hadn’t tasted victory since 2023.

Whiting’s path was no cakewalk either. He carved through heavy hitters Teddy Bubb, Chip Ellis, and Rickey Gadson to earn his shot at redemption. With both racers locked in on the tree, tension hung thick over the starting line. But before the green could drop, Whiting jumped—triggering a red light and handing the win to Moore.

Or so we thought.

In a dramatic turn of events, the post-race tech inspection revealed a surprise twist: a fuel check on both finalists. What it uncovered stunned everyone—Chris Moore’s bike was found running an illegal fuel mixture. The violation meant immediate disqualification.

The win—once celebrated—was stripped along with all earned all points during the event. Courtlan Whiting, the red-lighted runner-up, was officially declared the victor.

As the news spread, the Moore camp claimed innocence. But Tech’s findings were clear, unlike Moore’s fuel.

Below are the actual tech findings directly from the tech department, and they speak for themselves.

⛔️ Sunday Winner & Runner Up
Both Bikes Wheelbase & Ground Clearance Verified at Scales. Sealed Fuel Caps, Supply & Return Lines with tamper evident paint.

Post Race Fuel Inspection – Chris Moore Disqualified
During post-race inspection, the fuel return line was removed to obtain a sample of pressurized fuel directly from the fuel rail. Analysis of this sample resulted in the disqualification of rider Chris Moore. The specific gravity of the fuel was measured at 0.857 at 86.9°F, exceeding the allowable limit of 0.810. This measurement was verified through three sepearte independent tests using both an Anton Paar densitometer and a precision hydrometer, with consistent results across both methods.

The fuel sample taken from the bike exhibited a faint pink hue, suggesting possible contamination or additive presence. In contrast, fuel drawn directly from the team’s supply container appeared optically clear and measured a specific gravity of 0.803 at 87.4°F using the Anton Paar device. This discrepancy confirms that the fuel circulating within the bike’s pressurized system was not consistent with the team’s declared fuel source, thus violating compliance standards.

Post Race Fuel Inspection – Courtland Whiting Pass
Inspection confirmed that the tamper-evident paint was intact and undisturbed. The return line was removed to obtain a fuel sample directly from the pressurized fuel rail. Testing of the sample revealed a specific gravity of 0.803 at 88.6°F, and the fuel appeared optically clear, with no signs of contamination or irregularity. Based on these findings, the fuel was determined to be compliant with regulations, and the rider was confirmed as the event winner.

MaxxECU Pro Xtreme

Winner – Terry Schweigert
Runner-up – Brayden Davis

The MaxxECU Pro Xtreme 1/8-mile heads-up class stormed into the third stop of the 2025 XDA season at the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown with fierce competition and record-breaking performances, once again proving this is where horsepower meets heart.

Points leader Brunson Grothus, coming off back-to-back wins, set the tone early by clinching the #1 qualifying spot with a 3.972—the only three-second pass of qualifying. But his triple-win hopes were dashed in round two when a red light handed the win to Craig Rosenberg.

Entering the weekend ranked second and third in points, Tommy Saxon and Terry Schweigert were looking to close the gap. Saxon’s campaign ended in round one, while Schweigert seized the opportunity and took control of the bracket. With Grothus and Saxon both out early, Schweigert methodically advanced, taking down Coodee Thomas, Chris Cutsinger, and John Collins to punch his ticket to the final.

On the other side of the ladder, rising star Brayden Davis—fresh off his debut in the NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle ranks—was proving he’s a serious threat. Davis took down Chris Theodoridis, Jean Gosselin, and Craig Rosenberg to meet Schweigert in the final round.

In the semis, Schweigert threw down the first three-second pass of eliminations with a 3.964, setting the stage for a potential final round takeover. But in the final, it was Davis who nailed the tree with a razor-sharp .013 reaction to Schweigert’s .105. Despite the holeshot, Schweigert powered past with a winning 3.947 at 184.20 mph over Davis’ 4.043 at 175.64 mph.

With this win, Schweigert tightens the points battle and puts Grothus’ championship lead in jeopardy heading into the next round.

MaxxECU Pro Xtreme is presented by Billy Vose Racing, Fast by Gast, Dunigan Racing, DME Racing, Grothus Dragbikes, Harley Haul, Rob Bush Motorsports, Robinson Industries, Schnitz Racing, Timblin Chassis, and Worldwide Bearings, Pro Performance and Mikronite.

HTP Performance Super Stock

Winner – Brandon Litten
Runner-up – Mike Davis

Brandon Litten Claims First Super Stock Victory in a Thrilling Final at Rockingham!

The HTP Performance Super Stock class lit up Rockingham Dragway during the XDA’s 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown with non-stop action, breakout performances, and a nail-biting final that crowned a new winner.

Tim Cottrell once again proved his consistency in qualifying, grabbing the #1 spot for the second consecutive race with a sharp 8.793. But when eliminations rolled around, Cottrell’s momentum stalled in the semifinals with a sluggish 9.022, opening the door for Mike Davis, who laid down an 8.901 to punch his ticket to the final.

Davis was on a mission all day, taking out heavy-hitters Rickey Gadson and Tylan Leach on his way to another final-round appearance—a familiar place for the seasoned veteran, though the winner’s circle has always remained just out of reach.

On the opposite side of the ladder, it was a comeback story in the making. Jayden Litten’s brother, Brandon, was making his first Super Stock appearance since 2022, and he stormed back onto the scene. Both Litten brothers grabbed round one wins, but Jayden’s campaign ended early in round two against Rickey Gadson, leaving him to support his older brother from the sidelines.

Brandon wasn’t slowing down. He took commanding wins over Silas Wood, Caleb Holt, and Brian Johnson to reach his first-ever Super Stock final.

Davis, the #2 qualifier with an 8.865, entered the final as the clear favorite. When the tree dropped, Litten hit it hard with a .0976 reaction time to Davis’ .113. But the race took a dramatic turn as Litten’s ZX-14 leaped into a wheelie off the line, giving Davis the early lead with smooth control. It looked like Davis was finally on his way to breaking his runner-up curse—until the top end.

Litten never gave up the chase, clawing back inch by inch as Davis’ bike faltered. In a stunning finish, Davis clocked his slowest pass of the day with a 9.202, and Litten surged past at the stripe, stealing the win with a 9.040.

From comeback kid to first-time winner—Brandon Litten is officially making waves in Super Stock!

Team Skittles ATV Shootout

Winner – Blake Chavis
Runner-up – Tevon Huntley

Blake Chavis Clinches Second Win of the Season in Team Skittles ATV Shootout

For the third straight event, Blake Chavis proved he’s the one to beat, securing the number one qualifying spot in the highly competitive Team Skittles ATV Shootout. The 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown at Rockingham Dragway delivered yet another thrilling chapter in the ongoing rivalry between Chavis and Trevon Huntley, as the two standout racers once again met in the final round.

Chavis, riding the momentum of back-to-back top qualifier honors, earned a first-round bye and then powered past Luis Colin to advance to his third consecutive final. On the other side of the ladder, Huntley battled through a tough field, taking down Will McCulloch and Luis Garcia with clean, aggressive passes to set up yet another high-stakes clash with Chavis.

But just as the crowd braced for another epic showdown, drama unfolded in the waterbox. Huntley’s machine encountered sudden mechanical issues as he prepared for the final round. In a show of sportsmanship, Chavis waited patiently while Huntley’s team worked against the clock to resolve the problem. Unfortunately, time ran out as the XDA starting staff was forced to make the call, and Huntley was timed out of the lane.

Chavis was awarded the win by default, not the way he wanted to take the W, but still a testament to his dominance this season. He capped off the event with a solo pass, clocking a blistering 4.6809 at 144.88 mph—making a statement that he’s not just winning, he’s doing it with serious speed.

Chavis now stands with two wins in three final round appearances, and the season is far from over. The question remains: Can anyone stop him?

Outlaw Bagger Shootout

Winner – Bruce Emanuel
Runner-up – Jeremy Teasley

Bruce Emanuel Dominated the Outlaw Bagger Shootout

The 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown brought thunder to Rockingham Dragway—and the Outlaw Bagger Shootout added the rumble. Seven fire-breathing Harleys rolled into the lanes ready to shake the strip, but it was Bruce Emanuel who made it clear from the jump—he was the one to beat.

Emanuel fired the first shot in qualifying, laying down a scorching 7.848 at 177.65 MPH to lock in the #1 spot. His machine was smooth, straight, and brutally fast.

When eliminations kicked off, Emanuel kept that momentum alive. He took out Brent Hill in round one and earned a bye in round two, sending him straight into the final.

Across the ladder, Jeremy Teasley was on his own mission. After pulling the round one bye, he eliminated Mike Beland with a clean run to set up a heavyweight clash in the final.

At the tree, Teasley came out swinging with a strong .096 light over Emanuel’s sluggish .198. But the race was far from over.

Emanuel quickly made up the gap, unleashing every ounce of horsepower as he rocketed past Teasley to take the win light. With a matching 7.848 in the final, Emanuel proved that consistency and sheer power win races—even against the sharpest of reactions. Teasley clocked an 8.039 in a valiant effort, but it wasn’t enough.

Bruce Emanuel walks away from Rockingham with the Outlaw Bagger Shootout crown.

AGM Boosted Bulls

Winner –  Sean Henson
Runner-up –  Alex Moore

New Blood Shakes the Tree in AGM Boosted Bulls at Rockingham

The AGM Boosted Bulls class at the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown was an all-out shakeup that saw titans fall early and new blood rise fast. Class killers Malcolm Phillips and Frankie Stotz, both class champions, were blindsided in round one. The crowd was stunned. The gate was wide open.

Enter Sean Henson and his wild ride, ‘Vixen.’

In his Boosted Bulls debut, Henson came to Rockingham Dragway with something to prove—and proved it he did. Lined up against longtime friend and veteran racer Frankie Stotz in round one, there were no freebies. Henson threw down and sent Stotz packing, marking the first major upset of the day. The momentum kept rolling, and so did Vixen.

After muscling through the field, Henson found himself lined up in the finals against Alex Moore and his beast, ‘Big Country.’ It was raw horsepower versus rookie hunger—and the rookie was locked in.

When the tree dropped, Henson left like a bullet. No hesitation. No mercy. He hooked hard, shot straight, and never looked back. With surgical precision, he blasted through the eighth-mile stripe, delivering a flawless run that sealed his first Boosted Bulls win—and a warning shot to the class: the new kid’s not playing.

Sean Henson just made his name known in Boosted Bulls, and if Rockingham was any sign, Vixen is here to hunt.

Shore Car Wash Solutions Nitrous Bulls

Winner –  Aubrey Valentine / Moon Knight
Runner-up –  Ronald Benjamin / Two Face

Nitrous Bulls Bring the Heat: Valentine Shuts Down Rockingham

The Shore Car Wash Solutions Nitrous Bulls didn’t come to play—they came to throw down. At the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown, Rockingham Dragway turned into a warzone where only the bold survived. This wasn’t polished. It wasn’t pretty. It was raw, street-bred chaos. And when the smoke cleared, two names stood tall: Aubrey Valentine and Ronald Benjamin.

Aubrey Vantine
Aubrey Vantine

Rolling deep with Moon Knight, Valentine pulled that lucky first-round bye, but there was nothing lucky about what happened next. In the semi-finals, he lined up against defending champ Antonio Patton and his beast Big Durty. One clean hit later, Big Durty was sent packing. Valentine? Locked in for the final.

On the other side, Ronald Benjamin was on a mission with Two Face. First, he handed Caleb Holt and Fortnight an early trip to the trailer to respawn. Then he clipped Malcolm Phillips on Striptease, punching his ticket to his first-ever Nitrous Bulls final.

But in the final round, the mask slipped. Two Face showed the wrong side, and Valentine wasted no time—snapping off the line with deadly intent. Moon Knight flew like a missile while Benjamin was left reaching in vain.

No gimmicks. No mercy. Just straight-up street smoke. Valentine owns Rockingham now.

East Coast Collision Monster Bulls

Winner – Crow Teasley / Unhinged
Runner-up – Dany Bernier / Bad Bern

Teasley Unleashes “Unhinged” in the East Coast Collision Monster Bulls Grudge class

The East Coast Collision Monster Bulls class lit the fuse and brought the fireworks to Rockingham Dragway for the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown, where the street’s heaviest hitters came to throw down in true grudge fashion. No clocks, no excuses—just bikes, bravado, and bad intentions.

Crow Teasley - Unhinged
Crow Teasley – Unhinged

Back in the mix and making noise was none other than 2024 class champ Crow Teasley on the snarling beast known as Unhinged. After stumbling out early at the season’s first two events, Teasley rolled into Rockingham with one thing on his mind—redemption. And he didn’t come to talk about it; he came to be about it.

In round one, Teasley clapped back with authority, sending Kevin Dennis and Full Coverage packing. A lucky draw in round two gave him a bye run and a ticket to the big stage, where he would meet the man holding the crown this season—Dany Bernier on Bad Bern.

Bernier’s been on a tear, picking off hitters left and right. He snatched wins from Henry Wise on New Jersey Drive and Spencer Claycomb on One Trip, putting himself in his third straight final. Undefeated this year, Bernier came in cool, maybe a little too cool.

When the beams dropped in the final, Bernier jumped with ice in his veins, but Teasley turned Unhinged all the way up. With brute power and cold focus, he ran Bernier down and snatched victory out from under him—delivering a statement win that shook the points ladder.

Bernier still wears the points leader crown, but Teasley just reminded everyone why he’s the champ. And with the season heating up, the Monster Bulls class is about to turn all the way savage.

Tommie’s Motorsports DMV Bulls

Winner – Rodney Williford / Big W
Runner-up – Desmond Spaulding / NWA

Tommie’s Motorsports DMV Bulls: Built for the Hungry, Ruled by the Ruthless

The DMV Bulls class ain’t for the soft. This is where the future legends cut their teeth—low buy-in, but the pressure? Sky high. You got Nitrous? Boost? Bring it. This yard is for the fearless up-and-comers who want smoke with the big dogs.

Rodney Williford
Rodney Williford

At the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown, Rodney Williford pulled up with a brand-new hitter ‘Big W’ and from the first pass, it was clear: this wasn’t a test run. It was a warning.

Twenty wolves showed up at Rockingham Dragway looking to eat, but Williford wasn’t on the menu. He carved his way through the pack, snatching wins from Fly Guy, Pimp C, and Destro like it was routine.

Meanwhile, Desmond Spaulding was on a tear of his own. Piloting ‘NWA’, he buried Josey Wales, Da Colonel, Thunderbolt, and Stevie Badazz to claim his lane in the final.

The final was a showdown between two beasts—but when the dust settled, Williford did what he always does: WIN. NWA brought the heat, but it wasn’t enough to outpace a seasoned killer like Williford.

Still, don’t sleep on Spaulding. He might’ve lost the fight, but he’s leading the points—winning the war, for now.

Hems Site Solutions All Motor Bulls

Winner – Jordan Angelo / Da Setup
Runner-up – Mark Blake / Blue Chew

Jordan Angelo Stays Undefeated in All Motor Bulls with Back-to-Back Wins

Still undefeated in Hems Site Solutions All Motor Bulls, Angelo rolled back into the lanes with Da Setup dialed in and deadly. From the first round, it was déjà vu with a body count. Dennis Beatty? Handled. LA Payne? Handled. The Semi-Final? Bye. Angelo was on cruise control straight into another final.

Jordan Angelo
Jordan Angelo

But this time, a new name stepped into the spotlight—Mark Blake on Blue Chew. Blake clawed his way through a stacked field, knocking out Jeff Kanagie, Louis Garcia, and Grover Watford to earn his first shot at glory this season.

The grudge program stretched late into the night, but the final round spilled over into Sunday daylight. Didn’t matter—Angelo’s energy never dipped. Whether under the lights or under the sun, Da Setup came out swinging. Blake gave it what he had, but the undefeated king wasn’t about to lose his crown.

Two-for-two. Jordan Angelo ain’t just here—he’s making it real uncomfortable for the rest of the All Motor pack. And from the looks of it, he’s just getting started.

1 Stop Speed 4.60 Index

Winner – DeShawn Wheeler
Runner-up – Eran Pielert

Wheeler Clinches 4.60 Victory in a Nail-Biter Finish at Rockingham

The 1 Stop Speed 4.60 Index class brought the heat to Rockingham Dragway during the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown, with fierce competition from the first qualifier to the final pass. Six racers cracked into the 4.60 zone during qualifying, but it was Shawn Rainey who nailed a perfect 4.600 to lock in the #1 qualifying spot.

Rainey looked strong early on, but his campaign ended in heartbreak in round three when he went red against a surging Wes Hawkins. Hawkins carried that momentum through to the semifinals, where he met DeShawn Wheeler—who delivered a surgical .004 holeshot win to knock him out.

https://youtu.be/RG53vqUI3t8?si=OjF53BBwgJ5PZKCN

Wheeler’s path to the final was no walk in the park. He fought past a tough lineup that included Rashad Rowe, defending champ Ronald Procopio, Brad Gleason, and Mike Thyen—all without flinching on the tree.

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the ladder, Eran Pielert—currently sitting in the top five in championship points—was quietly stacking wins of his own. He eliminated Larry Leftwich, Mac McAdams, Michael Stewart, and Rock Sanders to punch his ticket to the final.

In what had already been a flawless season debut appearance for Wheeler that weekend, the final round was a dramatic conclusion. Both riders jumped the gun, triggering a rare double red light. But in the world of drag racing, it’s all about who goes red second. Pielert tripped the beams at -.014, and Wheeler followed with a tighter -.0017—giving him the win and a well-earned Rockingham trophy.

Wheeler’s performance proved one thing loud and clear: he may have shown up late, but he showed up ready. Expect to see more of him in the championship conversation after this clutch win.

Capital Brand Group 5.60 Index

Winner – Duane Jackson
Runner-up – Mark Schwalm

Capital Brand Group 5.60 Class Brings Ruthless Competition to Rockingham

The Capital Brand Group 5.60 class at the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown didn’t just deliver—it detonated. Rockingham Dragway became a battleground for index racers, where precision, timing, and nerves of steel ruled every round.

Qualifying saw four riders blast past the index, but it was Harvey Hubbard who rose to the top, laying down a razor-sharp 5.601 to claim the #1 qualifying spot. Hubbard kept the heat on through eliminations, marching into round three before running into Ken Straus in a double-breakout thriller. Straus edged Hubbard with a 5.589 to a 5.581—an eye-watering margin that underscored how unforgiving the 5.60 battlefield can be.

But the real showdown came in the final, where championship rivals Duane Jackson and Mike Schwalm faced off with just ten points separating them in the season standings. The tension was thick, and when the bulbs dropped, Jackson came out swinging—cutting a deadly .0137 reaction time against Schwalm’s .0502.

Jackson’s Hayabusa jumped out front, but Schwalm’s wheelie bar bike clawed back in a hurry, turning the race into a side-by-side dogfight to the stripe. In a dramatic finish, Schwalm ran closer to the index with a 5.614, but it wasn’t enough. Jackson’s starting line advantage sealed the deal, with his 5.648 taking the win light and the bragging rights.

This was 5.60 racing at its finest—tight margins, cold-blooded strategy, and a points chase that’s heating up fast.

Breezewood Farms Top Sportsman

Winner – Nick Hamlett
Runner-up – Brian Canoles

Nick Hamlett Clinches Breezewood Farms Top Sportsman Victory.

The Breezewood Farms Top Sportsman class brought electrifying action to Rockingham Dragway during the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown, delivering a weekend full of side-by-side racing and razor-sharp competition.

Donald Haas set the pace early, grabbing the #1 qualifying position with a strong 7.665-second pass. However, his weekend ended abruptly in round two after a heartbreaking -.004 red-light handed the win to Robin Procopio.

The spotlight quickly shifted to two standout performers—Nick Hamlett and Brian Canoles—who stormed their way through the field on Sunday. Hamlett knocked out Hank Lovett, Joe Procopio, Carson Fields, and Shawn Rainey to earn his spot in the finals. On the other side of the ladder, Canoles secured wins over Rob Hunnicutt, Jefferey Santin, Sequoyah Swain, and Mac McAdams with consistent, calculated runs.

In the final round showdown, Canoles dialed a 7.99 to Hamlett’s 8.05. With a sharp .015 reaction time, Hamlett was ready for the chase—but he didn’t have to. Canoles lit the red bulb with a -.004 reaction time, automatically handing the win to Hamlett, who cruised cleanly to the stripe and claimed the Breezewood Farms Top Sportsman Win.

MPS Racing Pro ET

Winner – Jeffery Santin
Runner-up – Wesley Jones

Jeffery Santin Clinches MPS Racing Pro ET Victory with Consistent Power and Precision

The MPS Racing Pro ET class delivered a thrilling display of strategy, consistency, and horsepower as racers battled through a stacked field during eliminations at Rockingham Dragway.

Jeffery Santin emerged as the dominant force throughout the ladder, showcasing razor-sharp reaction times and tight ETs that made him a tough opponent in every round. In the semifinals, Santin faced off against Logan Mathias and sealed the win when Mathias left too early with a -.008 red light. On the other side of the ladder, Wesley Jones continued his strong performance, defeating Gavin McMichael in a tight race. Jones ran a 9.78 on a 9.75 dial to edge out McMichael’s 8.47 on an 8.46 dial. Jones’s quicker .0313 reaction time over McMichael’s .0800 proved to be the deciding factor at the stripe.

In the final round, Santin delivered a masterclass in precision and racecraft. Jones, dialed in at 9.75, left the tree first with a .0927 reaction time. Santin, dialed at 8.19, responded with a superior .0076 light and began the chase. As he reeled in Jones downtrack, Santin expertly lifted off the throttle just after catching him, avoiding a breakout. The tactic paid off as he lit the win light with an 8.285 pass to Jones’s 9.768.

This victory adds another accolade to Santin’s racing resume and highlights the depth of talent in the MPS Racing Pro ET field.

The Brock’s Performance Street ET class continues to serve up edge-of-your-seat bracket racing action, and the latest chapter unfolded in dramatic fashion at the 190Hookup.com Superbike Showdown at Rockingham Dragway.

Coming into the event, Michael McAllister and Lindell White were deadlocked in the points standings—both tied for 13th and hungry to climb the championship ladder.

In the finals, McAllister dialed a 10.76 and came out swinging with a sharp .023 reaction time, giving him the immediate edge. White, dialing a 9.73, chased with a .098 light, but McAllister’s consistency and lane control paid off as he held the lead all the way to the stripe to take the win, light running 10.805 to White’s 9.775.

Winner – Jeffrey Santin
Runner-up – Ben Knight

Santin Seizes Victory in a Red-Hot Showdown at the VooDoo Components Bike Bash

The VooDoo Components Bike Bash lit up Rockingham Dragway with high-stakes racing action at the 190HookupNationals.com, where 109 fierce competitors brought their best to the lanes. With six elimination rounds separating the hopefuls from the final round, every pass had weight—and the intensity was undeniable.

As the field narrowed, two racers proved unstoppable: Jeffery Santin and Ben Knight. Both riders delivered clinical performances all day, cutting sharp reaction times and running their numbers with pinpoint accuracy.

Santin was a machine at the tree, posting killer lights round after round, while Knight stayed locked in, setting up for a head-turning final pass. With Santin dialed at an 8.23 and Knight coming in at an 8.72, the head start went to Knight.

When the bulbs dropped, Knight launched with purpose—but in his hunt for perfection, he pushed just a hair too far, going -.007 red at the line. That split-second misstep handed the win to Santin before his bike even moved.

In a class where milliseconds mean everything, Jeffery Santin walked away with the win—and the respect of his peers.
