DRAG CHALLENGE HAS ARRIVED AT THE BEND.

The cars are in. The tools are out. And the pressure is building ahead of a huge afternoon and night at Dragway at The Bend.

We caught up with three very different stories from Street Machine Drag Challenge presented by VPW before the first passes of the day.

First up, Sandra Horne and the unmistakable #214 1932 Ford Coupe, High Maintenance. Competing in VCM Performance & HP Tuners DYO, Sandra has already logged an 11.702 at 118.07mph at VMP before running 7.761 at 98mph over the eighth-mile at Portland.

Then there’s Barry Hall.

Barry opened Drag Challenge at the very top of the outright standings with a huge 7.154-second pass at 198.57mph in his VH Commodore. After a tougher Day 2 at Portland, he heads into The Bend 17th overall with a combined 14.219.

And finally, the man everyone is chasing.

Defending Drag Challenge champion Brandon Zito now leads the event outright in his twin-turbo LC Torana after smashing out the only four-second pass of Day 2, a 4.849 at 155.48mph. His combined time of 12.301 puts him at the top of the standings coming into The Bend.

Five days. Five tracks. Hundreds of kilometres on the road.

Today, Drag Challenge takes on The Bend.

RACING FROM 3PM TO 9PM.
