In Top Methanol Sandro Bellio is the leader after two qualifying runs, while in Pro Modified and Pro Stock Jere Rantaniemi and Jimmy Ålund recorded the quickest run and claimed the provisional number one qualifying position. Great weather conditions, sunshine and a cool wind made it to a good first day of qualifying for the Summit Racing Equipment Internationals. Especially in the second session there were many improvements and changes in the qualifying order. With another sunny and dry day on the Saturday, it will be a day worth visiting to see the fastest and quickest cars in Europe. This time Top Fuel was not the most exciting class of the day. After two runs home favourite Susanne Callin is the leader, with her RF Motorsport teammate Colin Millar

After a long break, the FIA European Drag Racing Championship resumes with the Summit Racing Equipment Internationals at Tierp Arena, Sweden. The Main Event at Santa Pod Raceway, at the end of May, feels like ages ago, so it’s time to refresh the memory and start part two of the 2026 season. Reigning FIA European champion Susanne Callin is the leader in Top Fuel, but with Timo Habermann in Top Methanol, Andres Arnover in Pro Modified and Stefan Ernryd in Pro Stock, in all other classes the reigning champions have some work to do. But with one race done and still three to go, the championship fight in all four classes is still fully open. The Summit Racing Equipment Internationals, August 6th- 9th, kicks off part two of the most prestigious drag racing championship in Europe. After the Swedish round at the beautiful Tierp Arena venue, the teams travel to Germany for the NitrOlympX at the famous Rico Anthes Quartermile of the HockenheimRing, August 21th -23th. After a short break to reco

Michel Tooren raced to victory at the Summer Nationals at Santa Pod Raceway, round three of the British Pro Modified Championship. The Pro Dutch Racing driver did it in style by resetting his personal best in the final to 5.797 seconds. With this win and personal best, the Pro Dutch Racing Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 seems to be ready for part two of the season, which features no fewer than three races for the FIA ​​European Championship. “This gives the whole team a lot of confidence. We look forward to the next race in Sweden, immediately followed by the NitrOlympX at Hockenheim, which is almost a home race for our team,” said a happy Tooren. Pro Dutch Racing kicked off the 2026 season with The Doorslammers at Santa Pod Raceway, one week later followed by The Main Event, the opening round of the FIA ​​European Championship. Because the Pro Dutch Racing Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 was updated with a new converter and new shock absorbers, but above all a new engine from Justin Bond’s JBS Motorsports

A working trip to Gainesville, Florida, earlier this year has led to a new chapter for Jedborn Motorsport. While working for Randy Meyer Racing, the team had the opportunity to meet with Maxima Racing Oils. What started as a conversation about racing, performance, and the technical demands of drag racing, quickly developed into discussions about the future of the sport in Europe. With the availability of racing lubricants becoming increasingly challenging for many European teams, both parties recognized an opportunity to strengthen access to products specifically developed for high-performance motorsport applications. The result is a new partnership that will see Jedborn Motorsport become a European dealer for Maxima Racing Oils Performance Auto. Having used Maxima products and experienced their performance firsthand, the team believe the collaboration is a natural fit. More importantly, it reflects a shared commitment to supporting racers with the products and technical knowledge requ

Marck Harteveld got off to a flying start of the 2026 drag racing season at Santa Pod Raceway. During The Doorslammers, he immediately reset his personal best from 5.852 to 5.811 seconds, and claimed the number one qualifying position for the opening round of the FIA ​​European Pro Modified Championship one week later with 5.818 seconds. Unfortunately, the speed was hardly rewarded while the Voodoo Hemi Racing crew went through some hectic weeks, as they had to work hard to get the ‘70 Plymouth Superbird race ready to the starting line again and again. Hard work does not always pay off; otherwise, Marck Harteveld and his Voodoo Hemi Racing team would certainly have had better luck during the two consecutive races at Santa Pod Raceway. Harteveld kicked off the season with The Doorslammers, which was primarily seen as a good preparation for The Main Event, the opening round of the FIA ​​European Drag Racing Championship. Harteveld finished this most important drag racing championship in

Susanne Callin, the reigning FIA European Top Fuel champion, raced to victory by defeating 2024 champion Jndia Erbacher in an all-female Top Fuel final in the first round of the FIA European Drag Racing Championship, The Main Event at Santa Pod Raceway. In Top Methanol the eliminations were filled with drama, but in the end it was number one qualifier Timo Habermann who claimed the win after a 6-year break from the sport. In Pro Modified Andres Arnover bounced back from a difficult qualifying to win over Andy Robinson in the final. In Pro Stock there was a major upset as well as Stefan Ernryd defeated number one qualifier and multiple champion Jimmy Ålund. It was a great day of racing at an extremely hot Santa Pod Raceway where The Main Event kicked off the 2026 FIA European Drag Racing Championship. Over the weekend the event was attended by thousands of spectators who had a great meeting with spectacular runs, close racing and several surprises. It was once again ladies day in Top Fu
