"From the Funnybike ranks all the way down to stock street bikes, racers are going quicker and faster then ever before because of our unique nozzle design" said Kevin Schultheis, Sales and Marketing Director, "our goal is tove give the most exciting class, and one of the lowest paying, an incentive to run fast."

"The day is coming soon when one of these two-wheeled rockets will enter the sevens for the first time" continued Schultheis, "we plan on making it something awsome to remember."

The 7-second club is open to any bike, regardless of nitrous system brand or the use of a turbocharger.

All entrees will receive an embroidered honorary member^s jacket. The first first member will also receive a check for $250, remaining entrants will each receive $100.

An season end bonus of $500 will also be awarded to the quickest bike using a Nitrous Express system.
