Located in Millers Creek, North Carolina, Hawaya Racing Products (HRP) specializes in the research and development, and manufacturing of drag racing motorcycles, parts, and safety equipment for Harley-Davidson® racing motorcycles.
Hawaya Racing Products (HRP) is deeply involved in the sport of Harley-Davidson® drag racing. Johnny Vickers, the owner of Hawaya Racing, is an accomplished racer with five National championships and many national and world records. Johnny is the crew chief for Pro Fuel rider Sam White of White Lighting Racing.
In 2010, Vickers started the first-ever school for Nitro drag bikes and ran two schools yearly until 2015, with over 100 riders attending. HRP has an in-house chassis program with several National records as the P/F World record, to its credit. Their chassis are designed on SOLIDWORKS software, then CNC bent and notched for the perfect fit. The tubing is jigged up and welded on a specially designed frame table.
In 2014, HRP started designing and manufacturing drag racing wheels and brake components, now used by some of the fastest bikes on the planet, like Larry “Spiderman” McBride and Dave Vantine.
In 2022, HRP added Industrial Composite 3-D Printing of end-use parts to further push the sport and 3-D Digital Scanning and digitizing. This technology speeds up the prototyping of new and obsolete parts and makes it cost-effective and efficient for new or reproduced parts.

Located in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, GMS Racing Engines takes Harley-Davidson® drag racing seriously, with multiple championships and National records in several classes. They know what it takes to get to the front and stay there.
Staying in the winner's circle requires a year-round research and development effort utilizing state-of-the-art engine design and building concepts. The GMS Racing Engine team is constantly experimenting and pushing the limits of the Harley-Davidson® V-Twin engine.
Winning championships takes more than huge horsepower - you also need a chassis to put the power to the ground safely. GMS Racing Engine bikes run in classes that do not permit wheelie bars, which makes chassis setup even more challenging.
Whether you are after a full-blown Harley-Davidson® drag bike, looking for a little more grunt from your touring bike, or want something in between, GMS Racing Engines can provide performance engines and chassis fabrication/modification.
