Top Alcohol championship aspirant Wayne Newby had a race against time to have his JBS Funny Car ready for the Nitro Champs in Sydney, but amazingly was able to qualify the fresh ride into the field.

Newby and his team built up the new car in just two weeks after crashing their previous dragster at the last round of the championship in Adelaide.

A total of 20 national drag racing records were set at the Nitro Champs at Sydney Dragway over the weekend, including the oldest record on the Australian National Drag Racing Association books.

Jamie Prothero took his humble D/Modified Bike to a 10.23 and a 135.08mph speed pass which surpassed the 26 year old mark set by Henderson & Shearer at Calder Park.

With just one round of the 2011/2012 ANDRA drag racing season remaining, a number of titles will go down to the wire at the Winternationals at Willowbank Raceway, June 8-11.

Top Fuel has provided the scene for a dramatic end with Western Australian Damien Harris and his Best Tractor Parts team leading Victorian driver Darren Morgan by just 2.5 points.

Harris recovered from a first round loss at the Pro Series 1000 in Adelaide to win at the Nitro Champs in Sydney, as well as taking bonus points for low time and top speed that elevated him into the number one position.

In what many are calling the best event held at Sydney Dragway, ANDRA Pro Series eliminations day featured some of the best personal performances and amazing drag races Australian drag racing has produced.

ANDRA Top Doorslammer was a feast of 5.7-second passes, with West Australians John Zappia and Robin Judd continuing to trade blows. However, Peter Kapiris defeated Judd in the first round and Belleri in the second round to force a finals showdown with long-time rival Zappia.
