Rapisarda Autosport International will return for the final round of the 2014 NHRA Mello Yello season to be held at Auto Club Raceway at Pomona on November 13-16, 11 days after the final round of the local ANDRA season at Sydney Dragway.
Dom Lagana will again assume driving duties after his excellent performance at the US Nationals when the team qualified eighth and then caused a massive upset by defeating NHRA superstar and then points leader Doug Kalitta in the first round before losing to seven-time NHRA fuel champ Tony Schumacher in the second.
“My boys, Santo and Santino are keen to return to race in America,” said team owner Santo Rapisarda. “I sat down and said ‘do we want to race in Sydney, jump on a plane and go to Pomona and they said ‘yes!’.
“Dom Lagana will be driving for the team again. He did a great job at Indy and proved that we can give the Americans a run for their money.”
