In the wake of the current world economic crisis, the Brett Stevens
Racing team elected not to travel to Western Australia to contest the
Goldenstate Championships in order to consolidate their resources for
the remainder of the 2008/2009 ANDRA Championship Drag Racing series.
Far from taking a break however, they have been in overdrive at their
Queensland based workshop concluding their most recent testing schedule
and also working on a number of exciting new projects which they are
hoping to launch in 2009.
The testing at Willowbank Raceway proved extremely promising for the
next round of the Top Doorslammer series with team driver Steve Packman
running his SP Racing Falcon to a personal best speed of 249.17
mph/401.00 kph, making him the third fastest legal trim Top Doorslammer
in history behind Brett Stevens (252.66 mph/406.76 kph) and Gary
Phillips (249.86 mph/402.27 kph).
