Bio
Andrew Started Drag Racing mid season in 2022 after building his first Turbo Suzuki Hayabusa. He battled to 2nd place at his first event out of 20+ bikes.
Prior to the 2023 season Andrew completely stripped the bike down to bare frame as he wanted to move into ACU comp bike from 8.50 Bike, which has no set ET, this would require greater power and setup.
Andrew achieved a personal best for his 2023 season of 7.75s in the ¼ mile and 5.0s in the 1/8th of a mile. His highest speed achieved for the year was 185mph in the ¼ mile.
Due to personal reasons Andrew was not able to attend as many events as he would have liked to, but to have built, tuned and ridden a 7 second machine within his first year of drag racing is a huge achievement in itself.
Andrew will be competing in ACU comp bike 2024, and has made drastic chassis upgrades. Andrew hopes to achieve 200mph in the ¼ of a mile and a ¼ mile et of 7.4 seconds or quicker.
A huge thank you to XHYPE for their Gravity Ride Moto 10W-40. Running 40+ PSI and E85 is tough on the Hayabusa engine, especially when pushing 2500cc of fuel injectors through a 1300cc engine—it’s no easy task for any oil. We often find the oil heavily contaminated with fuel, making it a challenge for any engine oil to keep up. XHYPE truly understands these challenges, and its products have proven themselves time and time again. After each race week, when we pull the engine and replace the big end shells, we’ve noticed significantly less wear since switching from Putoline to XHYPE. The oil is clearly better at handling the high-fuel contamination
In 2025, we’ll be switching to methanol, running a new GPT turbo with even more fuel and boost. If you’re interested in supporting my racing or getting involved, please DM me!
