QLD CHAMPS
FULL-STEAM AHEAD
The 2019 Summit Racing
Queensland Championship
will kick-off in less than
two months’ time.
The three-round series will get underway
at Ironbark Raceway across April 20 and
21, before heading to Benaraby Raceway
for round two on August 31. The third and
final round will then be held at Palmyra
Dragway across October 4 and 5.
Once again, the series is being supported
by leading performance powerhouse,
Summit Racing Equipment.
“Since the establishment of the Summit
Racing Queensland Championship we
have been very pleased to be able to
play a part in what we believe is a great
concept,” Summit Racing Equipment
Motorsport and Events Manager, Jim
Greenleaf, said.
“This series is an important part of our
campaign to support grassroots racing
and regional tracks in Australia and we
can’t wait to see what the third instalment
will have in store.”
The state-based championship develops
and promotes drag racing in regional
Queensland, and will enjoy its third-
running in 2019. The winning competitors
will be announced as the ANDRA
Queensland Champion for their class
with the awarding of a prestigious ANDRA
Copper Christmas Tree trophy.
Following two successful years so far,
the 2019 series will once again be run as
a joint effort between the committees of
Palmyra Dragway, Ironbark Raceway and
Benaraby Raceway.
“We are very pleased to again have the
backing of the performance powerhouse
that is Summit Racing Equipment,”
Palmyra Drag Racing Club President, Glen
Cunningham, said.
“We have been very proud of how the
series has developed in its two short
years and the support of Summit Racing
Equipment and ANDRA has played a
critical part in that development.
“The great enthusiasm of the regional
drag racing community of Queensland
in embracing our series as it has grown
and developed has been fantastic to see
also, and I can’t wait to see how the series
continues to grow over the coming years.”
