John Willard’s ‘Aussie Outlaw’ has hit the Santa Pod dragstrip for the first time, and has already caused a sensation in the UK by smashing Outlaw Anglia records.
At last year’s Winternationals, Supercharged Outlaw racer Bill Fletcher was involved in violent braking area crash that totally destroyed his dragster, since recovering from the accident, the team have had a new dragster built, and Bill will return to competitive drag racing a year on.
The number plate says “Tuff” and it is. But nowhere near as tough as the rider.
While the weather destroyed what was shaping up as a record setting Sydney Jamboree, a few racers made the most of the preceding test days including Collin Willshire who raised the four cylinder bar in Australia once again with the Jett Racing Mitsubishi Eclipse.

There’s a new team in town and they’re ready to bring fun mixed with old-school nostalgia back to the quarter mile. However, their connection to Drag Racing runs a lot deeper than everyone thinks.
John Willard’s ‘Aussie Outlaw’ Anglia and the ‘Double Trouble’ altered of Paul and Dearne Stephen have been locked and loaded in shipping containers for the long voyage on the high seas to England.
