Had a conversation last night about Drag Racing in the "old days" and I happened to mention a guy who was a top fuel regular that always rode the bike (Harley) on the rear wheel and wheelie bars. He steered with his butt and the front wheel never moved a mm. The two youngsters (under 50) just found it hard to believe that someone was regularly riding a 175mph bike competively on the rear wheel. I remember too many details to be making this up...I think! :shock: BUT my fellow conversants were firmly convinced that it didn't make sense that someone would do it other than for show. All I could say is "But they did!"
Does anyone remember who it was etc.? I've got until beer thirty to come up with something to throw in thier unwrinkled little faces! :lol:
So, You History Buffs...HELP!
