2015 Harley-Davidson Braggin' Rights UPDATED

June 4, 2015:
The 2nd Annual Harley-Davidson Braggin' Rights turned out to be great. More than double the number of last year's riders showed up, all vying to take home the much coveted bragging rights. The spectators came out in great numbers too. Naturally, we've been asked to turn this event into an annual trip to the drag strip. Enough said!

From our side, we were completely caught off guard by the quantity of participants and spectators and didn't have enough bar tenders to keep up with demand. Notes have been taken on the subject.

Rather than announcing who won this year's bragging rights, I will refer you to a short video in which those present at the Curaçao Internation Raceway pretty much proclaimed the winner. Please click here to watch the three minute video clip.

We'd like to thank Hubert Raper of Asogas Fuel Services for generously allowing the riders to assemble at the new Pablo Frederik gas station in Saliña.

The funds raised will go towards various programs, such as the DRAP, future publications of the FAC pocket size rule book, and of course to the PWF and the Ronald Mc Donald's House Curaçao. Thanks to all who participated. It was great fun!

We will kick off the night at Pompstation Pablo Frederik were we will assemble and await everyone to arrive while enjoying a welcome drink. Around 20:45 the riders will depart on a journey that will take them ultimately to the track. Don Silvio and his crew will turn night into day where we will have the track and timing system to ourselves until 23:00 hrs. While at the track we will be serving premium drinks, as has become customary. Also, Priscilla will be serving a delicious meal that will be as good as last year's "pan ku stoba".

Regarding the tickets, these will be sold only in advance. Please contact your Wild Hogs or Easy Riders representative. Alternatively, contact Danny at 511-5615 but DO NOT wait until the last minute as chances are we will not be able to accommodate you. So, buy your tickets as early as possible to ensure you get to enjoy what looks to be a very memorable evening under the lights.

JD being cool

Last week I got a photo that immediately put a smile on my face. Our friend Jeff Dobbins was sporting our T-shirt in support of our racing efforts, and of course, our beautiful island of Curaçao. Great stuff... thanks man!

I have been harassing him to come down for a few days for some R&R, and if there is enough interest, have him available to answer your questions. Not only is he a great driver (ask Pat who he's often beat off the line with Whathehell's GTO), he's also a past IHRA World Champion who nowadays crew chiefs for the Goforth's in IHRA Pro Stock competition and occasionally substitutes for them as well.

We still have some T-shirts for sale, though mostly are large sizes. Designed by Wicked Grafixx and printed on high quality cotton T-shirts, call me to get yours. Phone 5999-511-5615.
