Brayden Davis Secures Vance & Hines Motorsports Rental Bike for Full NHRA Countdown

BROWNSBURG, IN (September 10, 2025) – Vance & Hines Motorsports today announced that Brayden Davis, an independent Pro Stock Motorcycle competitor, has secured use of a Vance & Hines Motorsports rental bike for the remaining six races of the 2025 NHRA Countdown.

Davis will continue to compete as an independent entrant, utilizing a Gen 3 Pro Stock Hayabusa made available through Vance & Hines Motorsports’ rental program, which provides qualified racers without their own motorcycles the opportunity to participate at the highest level of NHRA competition.

Season Recap

Davis has already competed in three national events aboard the Vance & Hines Suzuki Hayabusa:

• Thunder Valley Nationals (Bristol, TN) – Secured the No. 1 qualifier position with a 6.870-second pass.
• Virginia Nationals (Richmond, VA) – Earned a second consecutive No. 1 qualifier, advanced to the semifinals, and won the Mission #2Fast2Tasty Challenge, posting career-best marks of 6.757 seconds and 198.85 mph.
• U.S. Nationals (Indianapolis, IN) – Earned a runner-up finish at the sport’s most prestigious event, while also breaking the 200 mph barrier during qualifying to join NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle’s exclusive 200 mph club—a standout milestone early in his career.

• Rookie of the Year Eligibility – By committing to the six Countdown events, Davis becomes eligible for NHRA’s 2025 Rookie of the Year award. Under NHRA rules, rookie status applies to competitors who participate in five or more events without exceeding four national event starts in a single prior season or 15 starts across multiple seasons.
