TEASLEY
FAMILY TAKES THREE
AT THE ROCK MIROCK
EVENTS
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anybody
who
is
not
a
member
of
Orient,
Ohio’s
Teasley
family
no
doubt
gets
tired
of
seeing
their
name
in
the
headlines
of
nearly
every
major
motorcycle
drag
race
in
the
nation.
But
truth
is,
they
are
at
all
of
those
races
with
a
full
trailer
of
motorcycles
prepped
for
all-out
assaults
on
checks
and
trophies,
and
walk
away
with
more
than
their
share.
Usually
it’s
Jeremy
taking
the
Teasley
headline
honors,
and
he
more
than
held
up
his
end
this
past
weekend
at
the
Dragbikelive.com
Sportsman
Showdown
at
Steve
Earwood’s
Rockingham
Dragway
in
North
Carolina,
stop
number
six
on
the
nine
round
Mickey
Thompson
MIRock
Superbike
Series
schedule.
In
what
really
was
a
test
session
for
Teasley
and
the
RS
Motorsports
Kawasaki
ZX14
he
rides
in
DME
Real
Street,
Jeremy
entered
FBR
Shop
5.60.
The
team
fully
intends
to
run
Real
Street
7.60s
on
the
bike,
and
owner/tuner
Roger
Starrette
was
throwing
more
nitrous
pills
into
the
stacks
to
see
what
it
would
do.
Razor-sharp
leaver
and
finishline
judge
Teasley
took
the
opportunity
to
collect
another
MIRock
win
along
the
way,
beat
class
sponsor
and
points
leader
Marion
Ford
in
the
5.60
final.
Jeremy
rode
his
legendary
foot-shift,
stock
wheelbase,
stock
motor,
no
weight
added,
no
MSD
SB6-equipped,
8.60s
Kawasaki
ZX14R
streetbike
to
beat
August
race
winner
Scottie
Keller
in
the
MIRock
Crazy
8s
final.
Younger
brother
Cameron
Teasley
started
the
season
on
the
CarrCraft
Racing
Suzuki
Hayabusa,
but
lingering
effects
of a
puppy
love
bite
have
baby
brother
spending
more
quality
time
with
his
lady
that
at
the
track.
So
dad
James
“Crow”
Teasley
Jr.
took
over
the
CarrCraft
seat
this
weekend,
scoring
the
Brock’s
Performance
Street
ET
win
on
Saturday
before
bent
clutch
steels
sent
the
bike
rocketing
skyward
and
out
of
competition
on
Sunday.
He
beat
frequent
winner
Jerry
Turner
in
the
final.
Barry
Pryer
Sr.
won
Brock’s
Performance
Street
ET
on
Sunday,
keeping
fellow
finalist
Dustin
Lee
from
doubling
up.
August
race
winner
Lee
and
his
‘Busa
streetbike
took
out
Mark
Schwalm
and
his
Kawasaki
dragbike
in
the
Trac
King/APE
Top
Sportsman
final
for
that
crown.
The
season
long
Louis
Concrete
4.60
battle
between
three-time
winner
Kenny
Cornnell
and
Ronnie
Smith
continued
at
The
Rock,
with
the
world’s
quickest
eighth
mile
index
bike
class
boiling
down
to
these
two
in
the
final.
Cornnell
took
the
tree
but
Smith
took
the
stripe
for
his
second
win
of
the
season.
Sunday
Street
winner
Pryer
runner-upped
to
the
fine
looking
turbo
‘Busa
dragbike
of
Brian
Canoles
in
Saturday’s
Nitrous
Express
Pro
ET
final.
“Formerly
Big”
Stanley
Russell
won
Sunday’s
final
over
Virginia
racer
Michael
Rankin—both
on
no-bar
bikes.
Afterdark
Underground
was
rained
out,
but
grudge
sessions
saw
some
shakedowns
going
on,
including
Jeremy
Teasley
on
the
Adams
Performance
‘Busa,
and
Ricky
“Hollywood”
Grayson
and
