WATCH: Jerry Savoie defeats Andrew Hines after epic staging battle
Jerry Savoie and Andrew Hines were in no hurry to stage their Pro Stock Motorcycles during the second round at the Mopar Express Lane NHRA Nationals presented by Pennzoil.
The two former world champions warmed up their motorcycles for more than a minute before Savoie lit his bulb and outran Hines down the strip to move to the semifinals. The battle of wills elicited cheers from the fans at Maple Grove and the rest of the competitors, who gathered behind the riders to cheer on their team of choice.
