Official testing ahead of the 42nd annual Westernationals concluded today at Perth Motorplex with Andrew Sutton and Lee Bektash leading the way in Top Doorslammer and Pro Stock respectively.

We're at the pre-Westernationals test session today and bringing you highlights throughout the day.

ANDRA Pro Stock points leader Jason Grima has announced that he will be fielding a two car assault for the first time at the 42nd annual Westernationals at Perth Motorplex.

Grima will steer the ‘black’ PC Group Ford Mustang while US racer Brandon Huhtala will make his Australian Pro Stock debut in the ‘blue’ Mustang.

Wayne Newby confronted the scene of a dramatic crash in April 2012 to come back and win in Top Alcohol at the Aeroflow Summer Speedfest on Sunday.

Ten months ago Newby was left with a written off race car following a 200kmh impact with the safety barriers, but this time he left with the ANDRA trophy and the first win since shifting into his new JBS Tools funny car.

The ANDRA Drag Racing Series heads to Adelaide International Raceway for the Aeroflow Summer Speedfest featuring national rounds of Top Alcohol, Top Bike, Pro Stock Motorcycle and the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship.

We will bring you live tweets on the results as they happen plus be Instagramming and Vining our way through the event!

Gary Phillips, Chris Matheson and Luke Crowley lead the way in their respective categories following a hot first day of the Aeroflow Summer Speedfest.

With temperatures reaching into the high thirties, racers who could find a way to make horsepower and then get it down to the track were rewarded.

Since 1973, ANDRA has been Australian for drag racing. An organisation of racers for racers, ANDRA continues to ensure safe and fair competition around the country and promotion of the sport.

This year ANDRA celebrates its 40th anniversary and a range of activities are planned to recognise both the occasion and the many people who have been and continue to be instrumental to the growth of drag racing in Australia.

Wayne Newby comes back to confront some demons this weekend February 23-24 at Adelaide International Raceway’s Aeroflow Summer Speedfest, returning to the scene of a dramatic final round crash last year.

Newby’s JBS Tools dragster overpowered the track and turned right into the safety barriers, writing off the rail car (below) and forcing the early debut of a new Top Alcohol Funny Car (above).

Former Group One drag racer Robin Judd has been appointed to the ANDRA Board, bringing a wealth of business and practical motorsport experience to the organisation.

Judd is a corporate advisory director of William Buck Chartered Accountants in Western Australia and a multi-time event winner in Top Doorslammer.

For Darwin drag racer Scott White, contesting the ANDRA Pro Stock Motorcycle Championship has been no easy street.
