The Hof (the Corvette driving Supercharged Outlaw driver not The Hoff, 1980s Trans Am driving Knightrider star) goes into next week’s Fuchs Winternationals looking for his first ANDRA Gold Christmas Tree.

Kelly Bettes can’t wait to get back in the seat at the FUCHS Winternationals next week especially since her last appearance behind the wheel came at the Sydney Jamboree in March.

Bettes, who broke the New Zealand four-cylinder record at the V4 and Rotary Nationals earlier this year, expects the Super Compact field to be very tough with some quick cars to contend with.

“A lot of cars are capable of running a fair way under there respective indexes so it could come down to a reaction time advantage to be able to take the win,” she said.

Local Ipswich resident Rick McBroom will get the chance to tick off a major bucket list item in just over two weeks at Willowbank Raceway.

During the recent X-Champs at Sydney Dragway, Dallas Whyte and Steve Fowler completed the first ever side-by-side six-second pass at over 200 mph for naturally aspirated vehicles in Group Three.

Until recently, Daryn Schuster didn’t even know he was the owner of the Competition Bike D/AB mph record at the X-Champs.

He may have been defeated on a holeshot in the X-Champs Junior Dragster final, but Toby Austin will take some consolation in scooping the 60foot Rising Star Award for Round 6 of the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship.

It’s hard not to talk about Alistair McClure and Kyle Putland as a pair after their record setting X-Champs weekend at Sydney Dragway.

Gold Christmas Trees were handed out and records were smashed in an memorable weekend of racing in Round 6 of the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship.

The X-Champs is off to a flying start as several competitors set themselves up for a record setting weekend in the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship.

While the Most Powerful Motorsport in the World is personified by the nitro chugging stars of Top Fuel, the grassroots categories of the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship hold plenty of interest for hardcore fans. 

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

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.

David Roberts is the latest recipient of the 60foot Rising Star Award at Round 5 of the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship.

The team comprising Australian Modified champion Craig Baker and his Junior Dragster son Josh, are donating $1300 in prize money accrued from the recent Portland Funny Car meeting, Calder Park’s John Taverna Classic and the Adelaide round of the Aeroflow Sportsman Drag Racing Championship to the Love Me Love You foundation.

Spearheaded by former Australian Rules footballer Lance Picioane, Love Me Love You is a foundation committed to the prevention, intervention and control of youth mental health disorders and substance abuse.

Don’t expect Leanne Braggs to back down against her son should the pair meet during Modified eliminations at the Southern Nationals presented by Fiat Professional & Essendon Chrysler Jeep Dodge next week.
