The Harv’s Harley-Davidson Racing Team made the short drive over to The Indianapolis Motor Speedway for round 9 of the Vance & Hines XR1200 Championship. This weekend not only showcased the MotoGP riders racing in America, but it marked the opening round for the 10-rider showdown for the overall champion of the XR1200 series. Having missed the test the weekend prior at IMP, it was up to Travis to get a jump on the other competitors and come out strong. After very little practice, Travis managed to qualify his Harv’s Harley-Davidson XR1200 in 8th place out of more than 30 riders! An unfortunate oil spill ended race 1 early, resulted in Travis finishing in 8th. Race two found Travis in a heated battle with two other riders all the way to the stripe. A last lap attempt at a draft pass was not enough for Wyman as he once again brought his XR1200 home in 8th place. Travis is currently sitting in 6th place in the points championship, and plans to continue his efforts into the next round at New Jersey Motorsports Park (September, 7-9).

Travis and Cody Wyman made their way to the closest track on the circuit in Lexington, Ohio. Travis stormed out of the gate on Friday finding himself 3rd in practice, and 6th in qualifying, while Cody had his best qualifying effort of his Pro career in 14th.
A rain delayed Race 1 had riders caught off guard with the damp conditions on DOT slick Dunlop tires. The track at Mid-Ohio has a unique tarmac surface that is practically unrideable in the wet. While Travis struggled with setup, he fell back into a 10th place finish, Cody improved one spot to take 13th.

MACEDON, NY (February 20,2012) - After a grueling up and down 2011 race season consisting of podiums, race wins, and injury, our focus has moved on from last year and directed completely toward the 2012 race season. My brother Cody and I, along with my crew chief Aaron Brown and Mother Kim, have put together an incredible program to make this a successful year. We have totally re-vamped our program that will incorporate two riders competing in the AMA Supersport East Series on GSXR 600’s, in coordination with my third year in the Vance and Hines XR1200 Series.

MACEDON, NY (October 28,2011) - After my unfortunate weekend at Barber Motorsports Park in late June, I suffered an injury to my left hand. I lost the front end in turn five of race two resulting in a serious injury to my pinky finger. The race of champions was the first time that I would grid up and race since my wreck. So I flew down to Florida in hopes to shake off the jitters and get some quality seat time.
I spent most of practice getting used to new Suzuki 600’s that I am riding now while building my confidence back up. I had two races on Saturday where I had to start from the back of the grid, which was around 35th place. The first race was 25 minutes, and I got a good start. My only goal at this time was to just make it through turn one. There was so much traffic and clutter through the first section of track that I kept careful until we got up on the banking. I got a good drive and was able to draft pass five bikes going into the next section.
