Summit Racing Equipment Renews ANDRA Support



The Australian National Drag Racing Association and Summit Racing Equipment are pleased to announce a multi-year renewal of their relationship.

This renewal sees the support Summit Racing Equipment has provided ANDRA’s Sportsman racers over the past three years as the naming rights sponsor of the national Sportsman Series continue.

Summit Racing Equipment Motorsport and Events Manager, Jim Greenleaf, said the performance powerhouse was always looking at ways to support Sportsman racing.

“We are very excited to be able to continue to support Australia’s sportsman racers through the extension of our relationship with ANDRA,” Greenleaf said.

“Like they have done for the past three years, sportsman racers will continue to receive end of year payouts of tens of thousands of dollars in recognition of their championship efforts from us. At the same time, they will continue to benefit from exclusive discount pricing by qualifying as a Summit Racing Pro Shop member.

The Australian Nationals Postponed

The following has been released by Calder Park Drag Racing as at the 18th of December 2017.

As a few of you may have already heard, The Australian Nationals will not go ahead as initially planned on the 26^th and 27^th of January, 2018.

Unfortunately, with the late withdrawal of the 400Thunder Group One categories and with only six weeks to go, it is not practical to run the event as planned.  We do hope that you understand this has been an extremely difficult decision and one that was not taken lightly. This event was viewed as a major step forward that we hoped would bring the sport together again nationally, but it is unfortunately being postponed.

While this event will not go ahead, we can confirm we are working in conjunction with Calder Park management on a plan to resurface the asphalt portion of the drag strip together with some other upgrades. Planning and negotiations are well advanced and we are sure you will all be pleased with the end result (which we will keep you posted on).

A return to Championship racing at the venue is expected very soon following the abovementioned upgrades.

Regards
Calder Park Drag Racing

ANDRA Approved Fuels Update

FUEL ADDITION
VP Racing Fuels have homologated their PSX + fuel blend. PSX + has been blended to suit the needs of high RPM, naturally aspirated racing engines with compression ratios above 12.0:1

The fuel has been added to the ANDRA Approved Fuels List and is available for use at all ANDRA sanctioned events from 15^th February 2018

FUEL REMOVALS
VP Fuels homologation of PSX-AU, X16 AU and C23-AU and all Sunco Fuels have been removed from the homologation fuel list by the Suppliers.

As per the homologation policy fuels will be deleted off the list 90 days from advice received, therefore removal will be effective 21st February 2018 for removed fuels listed above.

Homologation of Powerplus Fuels Racing 110+ was advised as being removed from the homologated fuels list on the 31st October 2017, thus will be removed effective 31st January 2018.
