With Judgement Day nearly here racers are readying their US and Aussie Muscle cars to do battle on the Sydney Dragway quarter mile.
The finale of the 2011 Track Championship Series at Hidden Valley Drag Strip is sure to see competitors pushing their vehicles to their limits as the points chase comes down to the final round of the year.
Yes that’s right the REAL Judgement Day is on at Sydney Dragway on Saturday the 24th September… Pre 1978 Aussie and American muscle cars go head to head on the Drag Strip!

Records were meant to be broken on the weekend as more track records tumbled at Hidden Valley Drag Strip.
In the lead up to the Fuch’s Australian Nationals we have seen record breaking performances in testing on track, here is the wrap from events over the last week.
Hot on the tyre tracks of Rod Harvey’s world record setting run just two weeks ago, Joe Signorelli has struck back reclaiming the title as the world’s quickest 2JZ and Sport Compact car. The Fuchs Nationals test and tune at Sydney Dragway was the scene for the run, where Signorelli in the Gas Motorsport Celica carded a 6.38 at 223mph, surpassing Harvey’s 6.40 second mark. New Zealander Harvey still retains the speed title at 224mph, but with Signorelli admitting to pedaling the car, the speed mark will look shakey next time the Gas Motorsports team hit the track this weekend. One thing is for sure, a titanic trans Tasman battle is on between the world’s two quickest and fastest Sport Compact cars. Incrementals were : 60′ 1.039 330′ 2.811 660′ 4.207 @ 178.10 1000′ 5.388 1320′ 6.384 @ 223.32
