Hines
Beyond
Pleased
to
Be
Back
to
Sea-Level
Conditions
at
Sonoma's
Infineon
Raceway
Hines
Ready
to
Defend
2005
Win;
Krawiec
Anxious
for
First
Attempt
MILWAUKEE
(July
25,
2007)
–
Andrew
Hines
is
thrilled
just
knowing
he
gets
to
ride
his
Screamin'
Eagle/Vance
&
Hines
Harley-Davidson
V-Rod
at
Infineon
Raceway
this
weekend.
The
Sonoma,
Calif.,
facility
is
just
660-feet
above
sea
level.
That's
a
big
difference
from
the
5,860
feet
above
sea
level
track
of
Bandimere
Speedway
–
the
team's
last
stop
two
weeks
ago.
Hines
has
a
history
of
success
at
Infineon
Raceway.
He's
earned
one
victory
(2005),
two
No.
1
qualifying
awards
(2005,
'06)
and
has
set
the
national
record
there
as
well
(6.968
seconds,
2005).
Needless
to
say,
Hines
is
happy
to
be
back
in
California's
wine
country
for
the
19th
annual
FRAM
Autolite
NHRA
Nationals.
Qualifying
starts
Friday.
"We've
had
some
good
results
at
Infineon
in
the
past
and
it's
always
a
great
place
to
race
these
Screamin'
Eagle
V-Rods,"
Hines
said.
"We're
anxious
to
get
back
to
sea
level
conditions
and
see
how
well
the
entire
category
responds
to
the
conditions.
It's
been
a
battle
all
season
just
winning
rounds
and
fighting
for
qualifying
positions
and
I
think
it's
just
going
to
get
more
intense
as
the
Countdown
cutoff
gets
closer."
This
will
be
the
first
time
that
Eddie
Krawiec
–
the
newest
member
of
the
Screamin'
Eagle
team
–
will
be
making
an
appearance
at
Infineon
Raceway.
Krawiec
is
currently
in
12th
place
and
is
aiming
to
make
up
some
of
the
58
points
that
separates
him
from
a
spot
in
the
top
eight.
Those
top
eight
riders
will
be
the
only
riders
able
to
compete
for
the
NHRA
POWERade
Pro
Stock
Motorcycle
championship
when
the
Countdown
to
the
Championship
point
standings
are
readjusted
before
the
Aug.
29
start
of
the
U.S.
Nationals
in
Indianapolis,
Ind.,
start.
"All
I
have
heard
about
Infineon
is
what
a
great
facility
it
is
and
how
fast
the
track
can
be,"
Krawiec
said.
"It's
another
one
of
the
tracks
that
I
am
going
to
for
the
first
time
this
season
but
I'm
especially
anxious
about.
This
team
has
done
well
there
in
the
past
and
that's
a
confidence
booster
going
into
the
event.
"We
have
some
points
to
make
up
if
we
want
to
get
into
the
Countdown
ladder
and
we
have
just
three
races
to
work
with.
Things
are
starting
to
fall
into
place
and
I
think
we've
all
learned
a
lot
this
season
that
is
going
to
help
us
excel
in
the
second
half
of
the
season."
Riders
will
have
four
chances
to
qualify
for
the
ninth
of
16
national
NHRA
events
that
feature
the
Pro
Stock
Motorcycle
category.
Two
sessions
will
be
held
Friday
at
3:45
and
7
p.m.
before
wrapping
up
on
Saturday
at
10:30
a.m.
and
2
p.m.
Final
eliminations
will
start
at
noon
on
Sunday.
With
two
wins
in
three
final
rounds
to
his
credit
so
far
this
season,
Hines
has
visions
of
adding
to
those
numbers.
He
knows
he
certainly
has
the
right
team
to
make
it
possible.
"It's
always
great
going
to
a
race
where
you
know
you
are
capable
of
doing
well
at
and
love
being
at,"
Hines
said.
"I
always
look
forward
to
Sonoma,
especially
this
year.
My
team
has
worked
overtime
to
make
sure
we
have
a
chance
of
going
rounds
on
Sunday
and
I
can't
ask
for
more
than
that."

the
sinister

of

a
step
–
okay,

steps
–
further

before.

cranked
up
