Memphis International Raceway Host Bumpus Harley-Davidson Bike Class
Memphis International Raceway (MIR) is set for the upcoming Bumpus Harley-Davidson Pro ET, Street ET bike class schedule that will take place during the Summit Racing Equipment Bracket Series presented by COMP Cams. Located minutes outside of Memphis in Millington, Tenn., MIR is a favorite among fans and racers for all the action and events it offers. They host races on their 1/4-mile drag strip sanctioned by the International Hot Rod Association, a 1.8-mile road course and a NASCAR 3/4-mile paved tri-oval. Yes, that's 3 tracks, which means they can host the prestigious events such as the original Super Chevy Show, NASCAR races and the IHRA Summit SuperSeries World Finals.
Plus, they've got the Bumpus Harley-Davidson Pro ET and Street ET bike class schedule set. Race fans can get their tickets on the MIR website along with entry information. The Bumpus Harley-Davidson Pro ET class allows bikes with wheelie bars and delay boxes, slicks or street tires allowed. It's going to be a exciting series, and currently, both Pro ET and Street ET will be awarded a $300 payout with the runner-up taking home $100. If more than 10 bikes enter any event, $50 will be awarded in the semi-final round.
