The Tamworth Drag Racing Association had a grand old time across the 6th and 7th of August recently, hosting approximately 70 racers across two days including Cars, Hambsters, Altereds, Bikes and Junior Dragsters!
Racers came from as far south as Windsor (NSW) and as far north as Brisbane (QLD) to the Gunnedah Airport for what was the first TDRA event held in several months due to rain-forced cancellations.
The wet stuff tried its best to throw another spanner in the works with overnight rain Friday night/Saturday morning, but following some slight delays to dry the track Saturday morning, things got underway as planned with great fun had by all.
The next TDRA event is planned for the 29th and 30th of October – for all the event info, make sure you keep an eye on the Tamworth Drag Racing Association FB page.
Congratulations to the winners on the day (listed below) and to all on a great day out, and thanks to Aaron Brookes for the great pics!
