Tomac Wakes Up to Win Anaheim 2
Monster Energy Kawasaki’s Eli Tomac earned his first AMA Supercross win of the year the hard way in front of 43,106 fans inside Anaheim’s Angel Stadium. After a bad start that had him round the first lap in tenth place, Tomac got into his groove early and started turning the…
Roczen’s Return Complete, Will There be More Wins?
Team Honda HRC’s Ken Roczen earned his first 450SX Class win after what many had thought would be a career-ending injury in 2017. Three seasons worth of events, 50 rounds of which he’d competed in 26, had come and gone since the German rider was able to get back on…
12 Days of Man Cup: Top Fuel
The 2019 Kibblewhite Man Cup World Finals will always be known for one thing—The Pass—and it didn’t even happen during qualifying or eliminations. But that deviantly undeviatingly straight pass to the world’s quickest ET and fastest MPH (5.50 at 264) is seared into the mind of everyone who saw it…

Quick Learning Fab Man Mike Mullaney
It’s PRI time, which also means it’s “Drag Illustrated” magazine’s “30 under 30” announcement time also. And chassis fabricator and no-bar Suzuki Hayabusa sportsman drag racer Mike Mullaney is on that list. Mullaney took a fairly dramatic leap into the NHRA drag racing consciousness this past season when Pro Stock…
12 Days of Man Cup: Real Street
One class that really caught my attention during the Kibblewhite Man Cup World Finals marathon was Real Street. Sure, the class was won by Jeremy Teasley on a “new” bike, but what about Anibal Merced going to another final on his venerable ’14 and Johnny “Turbo” Dobrin still plying his…
