Top Doorslammer plus one in NT.
ANDRA Pro Series Top Doorslammer driver Scott MacLean is adding to his operation with a Ford Mustang Top Alcohol Funny Car.
The car has been purchased from fellow racer Adam Croker but has not yet been driven in Australia.
“Top Doorslammer racing will always have the higher priority but we wanted to expand,” said MacLean.
“When the opportunity came up to buy Adam’s Mustang we decided it was the perfect addition to the S&M Racing team. We’re still unsure if it was a moment of madness or a wise move but we’ll soon see.”
MacLean hopes to run both his Studebaker Top Doorslammer (pictured above) and the new Top Alcohol Funny Car at Hidden Valley Dragway during 2012.
“We will concentrate mainly on the Studebaker with some testing schedules being planned for the near future,” he said. “We are very keen to achieve our first five second pass, it’s all there right in front of us with the data, but getting it all right is the tricky part. Once we have the ability to run fast there is no reason our car won’t be competitive, as most cars are similar component wise. It would be a great achievement to duck into the fives at home, and maybe keep our track record in the Territory.”
The ANDRA Pro Series Top Doorslammers next compete at the Westernationals at Perth Motorplex in March.
