Once again the free oil change tent will be set up on Junction Ave from the 6th to the 10th, from 9am to 4pm. Hope you can stop by. Please pray for this ministry as we spread the word of our LORD JESUS CHRIST. -Rich V aka "VERN"

2007 Season - Well the 2007 season is here. Here's a update. All three bikes have been rebuilt. 2 got new transmisions and the frames powder coated. All three have new valves, springs and such. The VR has lost a little weight thanks to the carbin fiber wheels. Ray and Joe have worked real hard on the bikes and the dyno #s are inpressive. Gainsville didn't go well, & we'll leave it at that. -Rich V aka "VERN"

2006 Season Wrap Up - Well the 2006 AHDRA season has come to a end. This was our first year that we ran for points. Of the 8 races we attended, 7 were points races. We finished 9th in V-rod and 13th in Super Sport. We learned a lot and had tons of fun !!!!! All in all we made it to three final rounds and won two of them. We raced in five different classes with 3 V-rods, made lots of new friends. Next year we plan to focus on three classes - VR, SS and SG. Thanks to all the people that helped make this season a great success Ray V. the motor man, Joe P. the crew chief, Tony V., the Crew, my wife Patti, the new crew. …the list goes on Don, Rick, Marty, Denny, John, Mom and Ron. Thanks to our sponsors – Harley-Davidson Motor Company, Joe Gibbs Racing Oil, Christ in Action, and Dandy Don’s Ice Tea. --- See Ya in Gainesville -Rich V.

STURGIS 2 Wins !!!!!! -- WOW, what a week. Our first ever AHDRA Win came at Sturgis Dragway in SS class and then 10 minutes later, our 2nd in VR. It was great. I can't win these races by myself, it takes the work of Ray Vreeland, my brother and engine builder, Joe Phillips my crew chief, and the rest of the crew, Tony, Steve, Don and Rick for the website. I also want to thank my sponsors, Harley-Davidson, Don Pursel, CHRIST in Action and Joe Gibbs Racing Oil. After the races we set up the free oil change tent. We had a great response and did 121 free oil changes while spreading the word of our Lord JESUS CHRIST. That is more than double the number last year !!!! The oil change team was awesome, Joe, Jarred, Dave, Harold, Bill, Denny, Steve and myself. Big thanks to Brad and Nanci for letting us stay at their Ranch. Richmond is next. -Rich V

Sturgis, SD
Screamin' Eagle V-Rod and S & S Super Sport Winners

Norwalk, OH June 10-11 - We made it to the final round!!!!! Ohio was a blast !!!! We were close to home, only 6 hrs away. The bikes were running great and the team was gelling. The SS bike was running right on the number, we qualified 6th and went 4 rounds to the final, lost on reaction time. It did move us up to 5th in National Points and 6th in VR Nat'l points. We are hanging in there in VR with a stock motor. When Ray gets the race motor back together look out. The Super Gas bike is running good and we should get it dialed in before Iowa. Thanks to H-D, Ray, Don, my team, Joe & Tony, and SKI the webmaster. -Rich V

Atlanta May 27-28 - We had a good trip to Atlanta, went to the semis in V-Rod and quarter finals in Super Gas. We are now in the top10 in points in two divisions, VR and SS. Oh ya, the Virgina State Police stopped us twice to say "Hi", they sure are friendly. -Rich

1st time under 10sec in St. Louis - We had a good trip to St. Louis, weather was great !!!! This was the first race for the new 95CI v-rod that Ray built for me. The first pass was 9.98 at 132 mph my first pass in the 9s !!!! We qualifyed in all four classes and went to the quarter finals in VR and SS. We keep getting a little better each race. Next trip - Atlanta May 27 & 28. -Rich

AHDRA Lone Star Nationals ReCap - We had a great trip to the Lonestar Nats in Dallas, TX. The Bikes were running great. I bent a front wheel Friday night & has some shifting problems, but it was a cool "wheelie" !!! Next Race is St. Louis May 6-7, plus we will be at Numidia Dragway on Friday Apr28 to test the new trans. -Rich
