It is mere rumour no more. Sydney Dragway is delighted to announce the overdue return of Drag Racing’s most unpredictable creations – The Australian Nitro Funny Car Gold Cup at the venue on Sunday, July 4!
“Drag Racing is about variety and the return of Nitro Funny Car to Sydney Dragway is a welcome and important step. We aim to be committed to showcasing these amazing cars moving forward,” remarked Sydney Dragway MD Tony Beuk.
The Australian Nitro Funny Car Gold Cup is no tentative step forward, with the same prizemoney offering as what an ANDRA Pro Series Top Fuel round would be paid at a Sydney Dragway event.
Also a pleasing initiative for this event is a mult-round shootout style format, with a qualifying round, then an eliminations round, followed by finals according to performances in the eliminations round earlier.
“With the development of Nitro Funny Car events in a one day package racing wise at this stage, we see the need to bring these cars out as much as possible for both the racers and the fans,” Beuk explained.
In a pleasing change-up as well, the various Sportsman categories will also race using a three-round format style.
Stay tuned as we let you know who will rage Nitro Funny Car Thunder in a 4th of July Firecracker at Sydney Dragway!
