AHDRA/AMA All-American motorcycle drag racing is set to deliver a fantastic show to motorcycle enthusiasts from today until June 11, 2023, in the upgraded Kuhnle Motorsports Park in Thompson, Ohio. It promises to be a thrilling event with the Advanced Sleeve All-Harley Nitro Buckeye Nationals showcasing AHDRA's Top Fuel heroes, gasoline studs, and pro and sportsman bikes that will race down the Kuhnle quarter mile.

Race fans’ excitement will be fueled by the exciting head-to-head action between reigning Top Fuel champion, Tracy Kile, Ohio’s Ryan Perry--the 2021 champion--and other Top Fuel Harley racers such as Chris Streeter and “Gunslinger” Jason Pridemore. Spectators will also be on the edge of their seats as Derrick Nelson, Smokin’ Dean Ryan, and other top racers compete for the win.
