Willowbank Raceway has released its 2015 calendar, headlined by the FUCHS Winternationals and Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race events and manufacurer specific days.

The new calendar features: ANDRA Drag Racing Championship events, the Summit Race Equipment Sportsman Series, more than 60 test and tune events, nine ‘Race-a-Mate’ nights as well as seven rounds of the Queensland Drag Racing Championship and Street Series. 

A collection of standalone events are also scheduled, including Nostalgias, Pro Street Shootout, GM Mania, All Ford Day, Mopar Sunday and the Brisbane Jamboree.

Willowbank Raceway CEO Tony Manson said the focus of the 2015 calendar was to cater to all levels of drag racing, from grass routes to the top end.

“We worked hard to create a mix of events that sees the popular and proven events and concepts of years past continue, while evolving and introducing new events to meet the demands and preferences of our racer and spectator communities,” Manson said.

“The new calendar includes a new All Bike Day to be held in May, as well as the return of Nostalgia racing, our Ford, Mopar and GM enthusiast events, the Jamboree and the Pro Street Shootout.” 

Willowbank Raceway has also catered to demands for more Test and Tune dates. 

“We have a strong calendar of test and tune events with new Friday evening dates in place in response to calls from our participants, and the Street Series and QDRC will continue to grow from strength to strength with seven events each across the year," Manson added.

“On top of all of that, we have national level racing through a standalone event for the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Series, the amazing FUCHS Winternationals and the popular Santo’s Super 3 Extreme Drag Race event, which in 2015 will enjoy a one day format to take the level of excitement and pressure to a whole new level.”
