The car is an ex-Darren Morgan ride that has been set up by the reigning champ, with the Mariani finally getting the chance to return to racing as a family. Mark’s father Mario Mariani formerly raced Top Fuel while Mark drove for Santo Rapisarda for a number of years and won the 2010 Nitro Champs. The Mariani team is the second to begin licensing this year, following Peter Xiberras making his first runs in Queensland recently as well. {fcomment}
