Eddie Krawiec at Pomona

Krawiec ready to battle for a second NHRA title at PomonaMILWAUKEE (November 11, 2009) - Screamin’ Eagle/Vance & Hines rider Eddie Krawiec knows all about come-from-behind victories. Last season, Krawiec arrived at the Automobile Club of Southern California NHRA Finals in Pomona, Calif., 19 points out of first place in the Countdown to the Championship, yet managed to power his Harley-Davidson V-Rod motorcycle to the Pro Stock Motorcycle title when the leader faltered – and Krawiec stayed steady – in Sunday eliminations.
On Thursday, Krawiec returns to Pomona for the Finals as the defending champion, but faces the challenge of overcoming a 54-point deficit to Buell rider and points lead Hector Arana.
“No question we are going to need Hector to stumble,” said Krawiec. “It’s his race to lose. But if he makes a mistake, I’m going to be there to take advantage. This is drag racing and a lot can happen. We are not out of this championship chase yet.”
To take home the title, Krawiec knows that the Screamin’ Eagle/Vance and Hines team needs to come off the trailer red-hot for the first rounds of qualifying on Thursday.
“We’d really like to do well in qualifying and earn enough bonus points to cut Arana’s lead to just two elimination rounds, or 40 points,” said Krawiec. “We’d need to be the quickest bike in each qualifying round, and hope that he never does better than fourth. That would give us 12 bonus points, plus the bonus for being top qualifier. There’s also the possibility, with the temperature predicted to be only be in the 60s, of setting a new class ET record, which is worth a 20-point bonus. There’s really a lot that can happen.
“The bottom line is that we just have to do our best and continue to race the way we have all season,” said Krawiec. “If we race as well as we can, we can’t be disappointed no matter what happens.”
Screamin’ Eagle/Vance & Hines rider Andrew Hines, who won his third event of the season on Nov. 1 at Las Vegas, comes to Pomona 153 points behind Arana and out of contention for the title. But the three-time world champion is just 38 points ahead of Nitrofish.com Suzuki rider Matt Smith in the race for third place in the season standings.
“I’m racing to hold on to that third position, and look for an opportunity to help Eddie bring home the title again this year,” said Hines. “The Screamin’ Eagle team will be racing hard all weekend.”
The Automobile Club of Southern California NHRA Finals will take place at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, Calif., with qualifying rounds on Nov. 12-14, and final eliminations scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 15.
Screamin' Eagle Performance Parts are inspired by and built in the spirit of the raw adrenaline and power of motorcycle racing.

40 Years and Still going…
This Year marks the 40th Year that Doc’s Motorcycle Parts has been in business and they look as though they are ready for 40 more after their 40th Customer Day Celebration and Bike Show help on September 20th. Over 3000 people attended what was a beautiful day. Complete with over 80 Bikes that entered into the Bike Show where we saw David Leslia’s Indian take home the top Trophy for Best in Show. Another big winner was James Prunty, who’s 9/11 Tribute Bike not only brought out emotions in all of us, but also took home Trophies for People’s Choice and 2nd place Best in Show, James then showed what bikers are all about, donating his $1,000 Cash prize back to the Veterans and Fire Fighters of NYC. And with the Yankees ready to start another Playoff run, it was fitting that with the help of Ct. Cruise News very own Don Clady, the crowd was treated to the “Yankee” Tribute Bike owned by Angelo Ortisi, which was a big crowd pleaser. And if the “Yankee” Bike was a big hit, an even bigger hit was the special guest appearance by “America’s Strongest Man” Derek Poundstone. Derek who was scheduled to leave for the Worlds Strongest Man competition in Malta 2 days later took photos and signed autographs all day.
But behind every great business, there is always someone who makes it all happen. And Doc’s wouldn’t have their success or reputation without Doc D’Occhio himself and his wife Wendy. But after speaking with Doc, he remains as humble as ever, and gives the credit for the stores success to you the customers, “I can’t thank our customers enough for all their support over the years, some guys have been with us for every one of the 40years. Because of you, there is a Doc’s Motorcycle Parts.” As always, all of the gate money went to the Waterbury Veterans Committee, and through your generosity over $3400 Dollars was donated. Over the years Doc’s has been able to raise Hundreds of Thousands of dollars for local charities.
