Current Pro Stock Motorcycle champ Luke Crowley has sounded an ominous warning as he plans to turn his bike up to 11 at the X-Champs in Sydney this weekend.

Edgell Mallis has spent 34 years in drag racing and not once has he contested the full Australian championship schedule. Until now.

NHRA Aussie Shane Tucker returns this weekend in what will most likely be his only Australian appearance of the year in a stacked X-Champs Pro Stock field.

The X-Champs this weekend will see a maximum hit of nitro as eight Top Fuel dragsters and 10 Top Fuel Motorcycles take the track at Sydney Dragway.

Of the 300 competitors entered across all ANDRA brackets for the event, no less than 20 will be part of the Top Doorslammer field ensuring the competition for the eight race day spots will be extremely fierce.

The X-Champs at Sydney Dragway featuring all the stars of the ANDRA Drag Racing Series and Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship will roar into life this weekend.

Shane Wynd has crossed the Nullarbor no less than 55 times but he doesn’t foresee many return trips in the future now that the current 2014 Modified Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship points leader has made the move back east permanent.

At last weekend's Santo's Super 3 Extreme Drag Race, Gary Phillips swept the board by claiming wins on both nights and setting a new elapsed time record in his Lucas Oil Products Top Alcohol Funny Car.

Last weekend at the Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race presented by Uplift Cranes and Titan Cranes, Gary Phillips put down the quickest Top Alcohol pass ever seen in Australia.

Allan Dobson reached his second A Final in as many nights to secure the Louie Rapisarda Top Fuel Trophy for Rapisarda Autosport International while Gary Phillips set a new national record for Top Alcohol Funny Car on his way to another ANDRA Drag Racing Series win.

Rapisarda Autosport dominated the opening night of the Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race presented by Uplift Cranes & Titan Cranes on Good Friday at Willowbank Raceway.

As the final hours tick down to tomorrow’s kick off of the Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race presented by Uplift Cranes and Titan Cranes (18-19 April), Sydney’s Peter Xiberras is preparing for his Top Fuel debut. 

Confusion over similar sounding names is something we have all had to deal with. But imagine you had the same name as one of your competitors. This has been the unique bug bear of two racers who will line up this Good Friday and Easter Saturday for the Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race presented by Uplift Cranes and Titan Cranes at Willowbank Raceway.
