TDR is proud to be a sponsor of the AHRMA series for Open 2 Stroke. We are dedicated to continue the 2 stroke heritage and continue to develop and make high performance 2 stroke engine, parts and race bikes.

Here is a quote form a facebook page from 1 of my racers.

No not my first time. I've been 4 times to Barber. I have TDR reeds in my RZ and my Daytona.
I like waking around the paddock and seeing all of the racers and their bikes. The museum is worth the trip. One of my videos.

Great Video. It is unbelievable how much there is to see and take in in 4 days. Almost too much but then again not. Every form of motorcycle imaginable is there.

I'll be there, the far end of level three. The tired old man with two tired old race bikes. A 1959 Norton which I race in the classic 60s. 500, and my 1984 RZ 350 which I race in the open two stroke.
Yes it does have TD reeds !
Dave. AHRMA race #977.

This is my first festival appearance. I'd like to put a face or two with names! Also would be cool seeing your rides, if you bring em. I'll be flying over from Atl on a Street Triple R with four or five other riders.

Tony- it was great to meet and talk with you in the Paddock area at Barber! Sorry to hear about the mishap with one of the race bikes and hope that ya'll were able to get it back together for racing before the weekend ended. The 421 bike you had there was by far one of the nicest bikes I saw all week! Hope we didn't drool on it! Truly a work of art, Hoping that John Evans might have a pic or two to upload so all can see your expert craftsmanship. If you get a chance Tony, please type an update on how your team did.
