Porters_LogoThe 2010/2011 ANDRA Pro Series Pro Stock season has not been the season that the Porters Racing team had hoped for. The season for the Porters Can Do Ford Mustang Pro Stocker has been interfered with business commitments and inclement weather. Despite this, the team did start the season with their first career pole position, turning in a time of 7.05 seconds.

Current ANDRA Pro Series Australian Top Fuel Championship leader, Darren Morgan isn’t allowing the frustration of the Sydney Nitro Champs get to him as he eyes off the season-ending Castrol EDGE Winternationals in just three weeks time.

Morgan took his AEG Powertools/Hungry Jacks Mildura 8000 horsepower dragster into last month’s Nitro Champs at Sydney Dragway 122 points ahead of nearest rival – Phil Lamattina and had the chance to wrap the Championship up.

If Darren Morgan claims the ANDRA Pro Series Top Fuel Championship at Willowbank Raceway’s Castrol EDGE Winternationals over June 10-13, it will be the first time an owner/driver has taken the title since Jim Read in 2006.

Morgan, who won the 2004/2005 Top Fuel championship driving for Lamattina Top Fuel Racing before starting his own team Darren Morgan Racing, is currently 101 points ahead of the last-round winner Read – a three-time Top Fuel champion and son of Jim Read.

zapJohn Zappia and his Zappia Racing Team proved why they are the National Champions last weekend, when they won the most exciting Final in Top Doorslammer history at the Nitro Champs in Sydney Australia. The win was probably one of John’s best drives this season as he had to overcome a huge wheel stand, tyre shake and after using most of the track also dropped a cylinder a the 1000 foot mark and still managed to take the win.

Porters_LogoThe Porters racing team were hoping that the 2011 Nitro Champs was going to see the Porters Can Do Ford Mustang return to the strong pace that it showed during the opening event of the season – the 2010 Fuchs Lubricants Australian Nationals, however, due to further inclement weather in Sydney the team struggled to meet the targets that they had set prior to the commencement of the event.
