2023 October 10th
Street Machine Drag Challenge at the BendThe Drag Challenge 2023 was held over two states, Victoria and South Australian between October 10 and 14.Competitors from all around Australia .The idea is to drive the street car to the track and race. The cars need to be insured and registered, with working street paraphernalia (lights, horn, blinkers and brakes), and will need to drive at least 1500km during the week. Support vehicles are not allowed so the crew working on the car need to travel in the race car and any tyres and spare parts need to be carried in a trailer towed behind the race car or in the car itself. Five raceways over six days, each car must race at each venue and stay as close to their nominated times to win. This event is the first time four wheels have raced on the track. The venue has the official opening 21st – 22nd October the Spring National including nitro top fuel cars.
