ANDRA Drag Racing Series

In just two weeks, Australia’s biggest drag racing event, the Fuchs Winternationals, will kick off at Queensland’s Willowbank Raceway for four days of world class motorsport.

Maurice Allen has added Fuchs Lubricants to his sponsorship portfolio, with the German oil manufacturer joining Milwaukee Tools as the currently second-ranked, Victorian-based team prepare for their sponsor's title race - the Fuchs Winternationals.

The Fuchs Winternationals is an event where the best drag racers in the nation meet and it is the same attraction that brings new competitors into categories to prove themselves in Australian drag racing's most highlighted spectacle.

Willowbank Raceway’s Fuchs Winternationals will host a world first when Rob Tucker, Shane Tucker and Kirsten Tucker-Cannuli all compete in the one professional drag racing bracket - Pro Stock - next month (June 7-10).

While families racing together in motorsport is fairly commonplace, when Rob Tucker and his children Shane and Kirsten (pictured above) suit up it is believed to be the first time a father, son and daughter have competed at the same time at the same event in the same professional-level class in the world.

A minor mechanical glitch was perhaps all that was between Russell Pavey and his first event win in Top Doorslammer following the Nitro Champs at Sydney Dragway.

After completing his first round burnout the clutch would not release and meant he was unable to race against Mark Belleri, who would go on to win the event with two solos due to strange circumstances in other races.

Jason Grima may not have won Pro Stock at the 2013 Nitro Champs but he was able to keep his championship hopes more than alive by knocking out points leader Wayne Daley in the second round of eliminations and putting his PC Group Ford Mustang back in the lead of the ANDRA championship.

The LTFR Top Fuel dragster had a mixed weekend at the Sydney Nitro Champs but a semi final appearance and more data sees the team confident about their chances as the ANDRA Drag Racing Series heads to its biggest event of the season, the Fuchs Winternationals.

In a weekend of mixed fortunes, Brisbane based racer Steve Ham has cemented his name in Australian drag racing history by claiming both the national time and speed records for the hotly contested Top Alcohol Funny Car category.

The 2013 Nitro Champs saw three first time professional winners in racing that ranged from the record breaking to the bizarre.

Lee Bektash in Pro Stock, Russell Mills in Top Alcohol and Graeme Morell in Top Bike all scored their first pro victories on a day where the saying “to finish first, first you must finish” was more important than ever.

Darren Morgan managed to sway the Top Fuel points balance slightly in his favour during qualifying for the 2013 Nitro Champs at Sydney Dragway, taking top position ahead of race day.

Racers have come from around the nation to be at Sydney Dragway for this weekend’s Nitro Champs – here’s what they’re telling us about this weekend!

He might have spent 11 months out of the driver’s seat of the world’s fastest accelerating vehicles, but three times Australian Top Fuel champion Phil Read doesn’t have nerves ahead of his return at this weekend’s Nitro Champs, just a pure desire to win.

The Nitro Champs this weekend at Sydney Dragway will feature round four of the ANDRA Pro Stock championship and again Jason Grima will field two cars with the return of the USA’s Brandon Huhtala behind the wheel of the second Ford Mustang.
