Wild Racing at SDBA Season Opener

The Southeastern Drag Bike Association, sponsored by Schnitz Racing, hosted the VooDoo Season Opener at Brainerd Motorsports Park in Ringgold Georgia on April 11th, 2021.

All SDBA events in 2021 are presented by Evil Swing Arms. All-day testing went well on Friday but Saturday was awash after some morning showers. Luckily, the track owners (thank you Steven and Amy Farrow) and the SDBA decided on a pit bike race and the result was a super fun Saturday with 119 entries and a $2300 purse!

Adults, kids, and adults acting like kids all participated and had a blast! Legendary sportsman racer-turned-scooter-jockey Bob Burt was runner up to Junior Dragster racer-turned-golf-cart-bracket-racer-extraordinaire Ashley McCarver and her father Charles Gazaway.

 

Sunday was a great day for racing with 218 entries for competition, with a few leaving due to the rain Saturday.  

The Hard Times Parts & Service 32 bike Shootout Friday night ended up with Sonny Vick, Duane Jackson, Joe Deck, and Dustin Lee splitting the $3200 purse.
