900hp Harley + 222.99 mph: There’s no thrill like itFor Damian

Cownden, the thrill of scary-for-most activities like skydiving and bungee jumping simply didn’t provide enough of a rush. Then, he discovered the sport of motorcycle drag racing.

Cownden, a native Victorian, now pilots a 900-horsepower Harley-Davidson race bike and is the head of his own team, Damian Cownden Racing.

“I’ve never felt the adrenaline rush like this — not even jumping out of planes or anything like that. This is just crazy, there’s nothing like it and I love it.”

This is not like watching a couple of crotch rockets bombing down the 1/8 mile strip at Western Speedway, although he was a regular at the local track earlier in his career. In the last few years, he has raced exclusively in the internally recognized Top Fuel division, the fastest class for race cars and bikes powered by a substance called nitromethane.

Top Fuel motorcycle drag racer Damian Cownden launches from the start line in a blur.

“It’s commonly confused with nitrous oxide. Nitrous oxide (when mixed with gasoline) will give you about 20 per cent more horsepower,” Cownden says.

“Nitromethane is a completely separate fuel — there’s no gasoline, there’s no nitrous oxide, it’s a totally separate fuel all to its own (and) it’ll give you about 400 per cent more power.”

Exactly how much power is that? About 900-horsepower and 1,000 tarmac-ripping foot-pounds of torque produced from a 175 cubic-inch V-Twin Harley-based engine. Cownden emphasizes Harley-based because at first glance most wouldn’t be to identify the 17-foot, 900-pound metallic monstrosity featuring a rear tire that’s 14 inches wide. It’s so lengthy that Cownden had to perform about a 15-point turn to move the bike off the stand where it was stored at the combination dealership/race-prep shop Steve Drane Harley-Davidson in Langford.

That’s where the custom-made parts sourced from all over North America were assembled to form the now-famous bike that broke multiple records at the Canadian Motorcycle Drag Racing Association championship series at Mission Raceway in August. Cownden made the quickest official Canadian quarter-mile pass for a nitro-fueled Harley-Davidson at 6.33 seconds, and later set the fastest top speed of 222.99 miles per hour.

“I think it’s an exciting time for me because, in the big picture, I’m really young compared to most of the guys,” says Cownden, 39. “They all refer to me as the kid.”

Getting to the top tier of competition can be a slow process for many — but not for Cownden who quickly reached the big leagues despite only having raced professionally for six seasons. He got his start working at Steve Drane as a motorcycle mechanic and attending races on the Island. One day he turned from audience member to participant after borrowing a company bike and winning a trophy his first time out. A year later, he started building his own.

“It kind of went from (dirt drags in Nanaimo and Lake Cowichan) to Western Speedway to Mission. I was licensed for Top Fuel the end of the second year really.”

Even though flying down the track at breakneck speeds is a regular activity for Cownden, he says the only injury he’s sustained while competing has been a broken toe from hitting a cone at 100 mph. Ironically, it was while riding a normal Harley years before he started racing that he suffered his only major accident. Riding up Shawnigan Lake Road he hit a van head-on and almost lost his leg as a result.

“Five operations and eight-and-a-half months later I learned how to walk again.”

Maybe that’s why Cownden feels safer on the drag strip than he does on the street, where he’s without his spine protector, titanium-knuckle gloves, bullet-proof vest and steel-toe boots. He won’t be wearing them for a while, though, as the season is finished up and the winter will be spent performing a complete tear-down and rebuild of the bike.

In April, the crew will travel to Florida for an All-Harley Drag Racing Association event, one of many that keeps Cownden on the road for at least three months out of the seven-month season. The rest of the time, he is in what he calls his “entrepreneur mode” running popular downtown nightclubs Touch and Sugar.

“This year we had a big rig, it was from another Harley dealership in Alberta that sponsored us. It was a 78-foot long rig that sleeps 10,” he says. “We did 43,000 kilometres driving this year.”

If you use a power buffer on your vehicle, it’s aggravating to have to stop to clean the pad. According to the Grit Guard company, The Universal Pad Washer can quickly and easily remove contaminants from virtually any orbital buffing pad without it being removed from the buffer. All you do is insert the pad into the pad washer, turn on your polisher and let the washer’s grid insert

clean and dry your buffing pads. The opening of the washer is adjustable to accommodate any pad size and polisher. The Universal Pad Washer system includes a four-ounce spray bottle of pad renewing solution that helps remove petroleum and water-based car-care products from wool fibers and porous foam.

LIKE ALL GOOD THINGS,

RECYCLE YOUR RIDE MUST COME TO AN END.RECYCLE YOUR RIDE IS ON ALL ACROSS CANADA —ONLY UNTIL JANUARY 3RD AND ONLY AT YOUR FORD STORE.

Ford’s Recycle Your Ride program is a great incentive for consumers looking to save on their next vehicle while responsibly recycling their old one.

Since the program was fi rst offered in 2009, Ford’s Recycle Your Ride program has retired more than 50,000 old vehicles.

And now, in an effort to recycle even more, the program has been expanded to include 2005-model-year-or-older vehicles. So even more people can receive between $500 and $3000* in incentives towards purchasing or leasing our smartest, safest and most fuel-effi cient Ford vehicles — like the Focus, Fusion and F-150, and even the award-winning Fiesta and Edge.

Our goal is to replace as many older vehicles still on the road today with more fuel-effi cient, lower-emission Ford cars, CUVs, SUVs and trucks. And you can help. If it’s time to recycle your ride, just visit any Ford Store across the country. But hurry, because Recycle Your Ride is only back for a limited time.

For more details visit ford.ca today.
