This event is run by the Tamworth Drag Racing Association. Last i heard TDRA was madly saving for funds to build a proper strip at Oakburn park in Tamworth. In the meantime they have been using Gunnedah airport.

Last time I raced there it was an eventful day with some bogan in a t bucket running over the timing equipment and a full drag (cortina i think) V8 rolling a heap of times at high speed. Oh and I beat a late model supercharged Ford v8 ute in my 32 GTST that I had at the time!! Anyway its still a good event.

The drift curcuit is a go cart track at Oakburn Park in Tamworth. It is a fun little track and wide enough to do some low speed drift. The track has been used by Tamworth Sporting Car Club for years for lap dashes ect. The track is home to 'Runamuk' drift club. One driver in particular Bryce Chapman is very good and has competed in the Australian drift series.

I think SAU should hire the track for a weekend. Not just for drift but for a timed lapdash.
