Posted: 21st July 2015

The newly crowned Australian Top Fuel Champions, Rapisarda Autosport International (RAI) team made the trip to Hidden Valley Drag Strip, Northern Territory for the first time this past weekend July 17th and 18th for the Nitro up North event.

The 2015 ANDRA Top Fuel champion, Damian Harris and Wayne Newby put on a show in-front of a record crowd of approximately 6,500 people to witness the quickest and fastest Drag Racing passes the Northern Territory have ever seen.

Harris and Crew Chief, Santo Rapisarda Junior departed the venue with both ends of the track record 4.639/317.49 miles per hour. Wayne Newby and his crew chief Santino Rapisarda were able to gain valuable data in testing their new car. This data will be put to good to use in the upcoming 2015/2016 ANDRA Top Fuel Championship.

“I’d like to thank my crew led by Santo Rapisarda Junior, for all of the hard work that they put in over the weekend. Not to mention that the car that we ran was a new Brad Hadman chassis and this event was the first time that I had ran this car,” said Harris.
