LAST year we had 80 entries for our very first Drag Challenge Weekend, held at Willowbank Raceway and Warwick Dragway. Twelve months later, we have 121 paid-up entries, with more to come before entries close this Friday evening.
It is a killer field comprising some of Australia’s toughest street-ready cars. And it is gratifying that the new 235 Aspirated, Tuff Mounts 235 Blown and XR6 Turbo Developments Six-Cylinder classes all have stout fields.
So if you having been waiting to check out the competition before making a commitment, get with it! Click here for entry details.
The event starts with registration day on 3 May, with racing kicking off on 4 May at Willowbank Raceway, continuing at Warwick Dragway on 5 May before the finale back at Willowbank on 6 May. Spectator entry is $20 per day, with kids under 13 free. More info here.
