#1 Qualifier - Jeremy Teasley 7.525
ET Record - Brandon Teasley 7.516

DME Racing Real Street Royal Rumble paid out $5,000 to win and featured a 32-Bike field at this event. The smack talk amongst the riders leading up to the event was out of control. And to add fuel to the fire XDA offered up a bounty of $100 to any racer that could take out the class leaders of Brandon Teasley, Spencer Claycomb, and Ben Knight. And just in case that wasn't enough, Jason Miller lit the fuse by offering up a one-of-a-kind award for the first rider to run in the forties.

A schedule change landed the last qualifier for Real Street on Sunday morning, only a few hours before their first round of eliminations. This would be an advantage for the entire class to tune to the track conditions going into round one.

Husband and wife of Michael Sweeney Jr. and Ashley Sweeney made up for not racing at the last event by taking wins in round one. The Royal Rumble brought out Pro Street legend Rodney Williford who took a first-round win over Brittany Bohne. Ralphie Navarro returned to his first event since his accident last year with Shane Stubbs on riding duty. Stubbs took out Hylton in round one.

Class champions Anibal Merced and Claycomb both took round one wins as well. The lowest ET of round one went to Jeremy Teasley running a 7.531.

In round two of eliminations, Merced earned $100 in bounty money, taking Ben Knight out on a holeshot win with a 7.57 to his 7.53. Brandon Teasley, Claycomb, and Stubbs would get easy wins when their competition broke and was unable to run. The highlight of round two would go to the faceoff between Jeremy Teasley and Rodney Williford. These two have faced off many times, but never in Real Street. Teasley had the advantage with Williford only having a handful of passes on his bike and winning over him with a 7.620.

Jeremy had an earned bye in round three, automatically sending him the semi-final. Class champions Claycomb and Merced met in round three, giving Merced a chance and winning another bounty. Unfortunately for Merced he broke traction about 70 feet out and fought with his ZX-14 the rest of the pass but couldn't catch back up to Claycomb, who took the win with a 7.64. The standout pass went to Brandon, who took the ET record away from his brother running a 7.516. The fans went crazy when the board lite up!

Round four is usually the final for Real Street; however, the larger field size gave the class an extra round of competition to earn a win. Team Brandon had an earned bye this round while brother Jeremy Teasley had to earn the win and attempt to take back his record. Jeremy could not get the record back, but he took out Claycomb with a 7.535 to earn some extra cash on the bounty for him.

Going into the final, the sibling rivalry was at the forefront. Brandon, who has watched his brother win thousands of races and break hundreds of records, wanted this win and record for himself. And Jeremy had every intention offing taking it all from him. Father and the crew chief for the boys, Crow Teasley, got both bikes set at the line and then stood in the middle of the track, knowing that the family would ultimately celebrate any outcome together. Brandon cut his best light of the day while Jeremy cut his worse light. And as they raced side-by-side down the track, it was a nail biter waiting to see the win light come one. When the right lane win light came on, the starting line crowd went wild for Brandon, who ran a 7.554 to his brother's losing 7.599. Brandon Teasley took the win, the record, and the points lead.

"It was great to see such a massive turnout for the inaugural Royal Rumble," affirmed class sponsor Dimey Eddinger. "We appreciate so many racers showing up to make this a big event. A class's performance can only improve if the competition is there to push each other to work harder. And even though we didn't see a 7.4x pass this race, there is a good chance someone will run that number next month at the DME Racing Fall Nationals in the cooler temperatures at Maryland International Raceway."
