‘THE BOSS’ BACK AT BURDEKIN
The township of Ayr is gearing up for a huge motoring weekend with it’s annual Burdekin Auto Fest to be held at the Pioneer Park Speedway on Saturday 26th April.
Back to headline the event for the second consecutive year is Drag Racing Champion Brett ‘The Boss’ Stevens who will be burning plenty of rubber as he throws his famous custom built 2,500 horsepower Jack Daniel’s Racing Burnout Ute around the speedways burnout pad.
The tyre frying show, for which the Brisbane based professional Drag Racer is as famous for as his racing, is sure to excite the crowds as he goes through approximately 80 litres of pure methanol fuel and an entire set of 29 inch Drag Racing tyres in a single exhibition.
“Last year the Burdekin Auto Fest was a really great event for the motorsport fans of North Queensland and this year it is shaping up to be even better,” Stevens said.
“The organisers have done a fantastic job at ensuring there will be something there for everyone, for those that love big horsepower I will have my Jack Daniel’s Racing Burnout Ute out to play on the burnout pad as I annihilate a couple of sets of tyres for the fans.”
“As well as the burnout show I will also have my teams Jack Daniel’s Racing and SP Racing 3000 horsepower BF Ford Falcon Top Doorslammer race cars on display for the crowds to look over.”
Stevens is one of the countries leading Drag Racers and is the only person in the world to compete in three professional Group 1 Drag Racing brackets simultaneously (Top Doorslammer, Top Bike and Top Alcohol).
Some of his recent Drag Racing accomplishments include winning the 2004 Australian Top Doorslammer and the 2005 Australian Top Bike Championships, member of the Australian Motorcycle Hall of Fame, holder of the fastest Australian Harley record at 215 mph (347 kph), as well as various other records and titles.
The Burdekin Auto Fest is set to be one of the largest automotive shows ever in North Queensland and will also feature a burnout competition, demolition derby, driver skills competitions, sound off and much more.
Brett Stevens and the Jack Daniel’s Racing team will also be making special guest appearances to meet the fans at the Queens Hotel on Friday 25th April from 6:30pm-8:00pm.
