Real Street Sponsored by BST Carbon Fiber Wheels AMA Dragbike is pleased to announce Blackstone Tek Carbon Composites, better known as BST, as the 2009 Real Street class sponsor.  "We are excited to have BST on board with the AMA Dragbike series" commented Scott Valetti, AMA Dragbike President. "BST is well known worldwide for their carbon composite parts as well as a number of years producing drag racing specific wheels" he continued.
Brock's Performance is now the exclusive US distributor for BST carbon wheels for Japanese sport bikes as well as drag racing wheels. Racers will also benefit from BST contingency postings for using their products in many classes. Contingency claims will be channeled through Brock's Performance. "I can't put into words how honored I am that a prestigious company like BST trusts Brock's Performance as their US representative to the sportbike world. I'm also proud that the positive reputation of the motorcycle drag race community was one of the determining factors in their decision to choose us. During my recent trip to South Africa to tour their facility, they commented on how surprised they were several years ago to realize that drag racers were using their wheels as they were originally intended as a high-quality replacement for aftermarket magnesium and OEM road race applications. Now, not only have they made significant improvements in construction techniques specifically for drag race use but we have already finalized plans to create even better products in the future with the drag racer in mind," said Davidson. BST is known for making the highest quality carbon fiber wheels in the world. The Real Street class is the first chance for street bike drag racers to compete in heads up racing on a pro tree. These bikes are capable of mid to low 8's. The class was designed as a stepping-stone to Superstreet and to provide an open forum for entry-level heads up no wheelie bar drag racing.

Schnitz Racing is excited to announce title sponsorship of the AMA Dragbike Street Fighter Series for 2009. This class is tailored for street bikes running D.O.T. street tires without the aid of a wheelie bar. All complete with a heads-up, pro tree start on a 9.50 index.
"This class is exactly what our customers are looking for, something a little cheaper to compete in." says Dave Schnitz. "With the entire class on the same index you get the starting line rush of both bikes leaving the line together and the thrill of trying to edge out your competitor at the finish line without "breaking out". Add to that the ability to ride your bike to the track or on the street when you get back home. It's a great way to transition from the Street ET class to other street bike classes."
"Dave and his crew at Schnitz Racing have supported the series and racers for many years in countless ways. We are thrilled to have Schnitz Racing back with the series as a class sponsor" commented Scott Valetti of AMA Dragbike. "Dave came to us at the beginning of the 2008 season with an offer to send welcome packages to all new members on behalf of AMA Dragbike. This was a kind addition in supporting AMA Dragbike racers" Valetti continued.
Dave added "We have all the necessary components needed to make any rider with any sport bike competitive in the class. Exhaust systems, fuel controllers, piston kits and nitrous components to swingarms, shocks and bodywork from all major suppliers and manufacturers."
