Race coverage

The Mickey Thompson Tires Pro Bike Battle is a yearly race-within-a-race bonus event for the Pro Stock Motorcycle competitors in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series. This year, riders competed head to head for a $25,000 winner payout at the Denso Spark Plugs NHRA U.S. Nationals. Fan’s saw Andrew Hines, Jerry Savoie, Matt Smith, Eddie Krawiec, Hector Arana Jr, Angelle Sampey, Steve Johnson, and Scotty Pollacheck battle it out. The special event, originally scheduled to take place at its traditional site at the NHRA Sonoma Nationals, was moved after that event had to be canceled for this season because of the COVID-19 pandemic and other considerations.
