Finland’s Zetterström holds the European speed record at 321.01mph. Sweden’s Callin is a shade slower at 320.20mph. Switzerland’s Erbacher held the previous record at 318.96mph before the other two topped it at Santa Pod in May. \nNow all three return to Santa Pod in a season-ending shootout to settle who will be 2023’s FIA Top Fuel champion. The European Finals will see more than two dozen overseas entrants take on Britain’s finest dragstrip practitioners across a range of two- and four-wheeled European championship title-chases supported by an array of UK national classes. \nFree entry to the pits allows a close-up view of all the team mechanics in action. With more than 250 entries\, there’s no shortage of activity to see. \nIn Top Fuel\, Malta’s ex-champ Duncan Micallef and Denmark’s Stig Neergaard will battle to uphold male honour in pursuit of their own race-winning ambitions. Gender is irrelevant in drag racing. While circuit racing still struggles to integrate female drivers in a male-dominated scene\, women have been taking the fight to men in the straight-line sport for decades. The Zetterström-Callin contest for this year’s FIA crown is just the latest example of female empowerment on the top rung of the sport. Erbacher\, Micallef and Neergaard are no longer title contenders but are no less bent on adding another prestigious race win to their tallies and disrupting Zetterström’s and Callin’s showdown for the crown in the process. \nAlmost as fast and just as loud as the Top Fuel Dragsters\, five ground-pounding nitro Funny Cars provide a Swedish opponent\, Patrik Pers\, for Britain’s high-octane\, high-decibel quartet\, Kevin Kent\, Steve Ashdown\, Kevin Chapman and Jason Phelps. Kent returns to the track after a race-winning\, record-setting performance (4.187sec/291.25mph) in July. \nFifteen overseas entrants will make the trip to battle Britain’s finest Pro Modified racers in a double-header contest combining rounds of the FIA European and Motorsport UK British championships. Sweden\, Switzerland\, the Netherlands\, Germany\, France and Estonia are all represented. Two Swedish racers share little mutual affection: veteran Michael Gullqvist has dominated the scene for so long with seven FIA Pro Mod championships under his belt but finds his rule usurped by Jan Ericsson\, a comparative newcomer to the class who has scooped the last two championships in a row and leads again this season. Among their compatriots\, fan-favourite Fredrik Fagerström brings his unique – indeed eccentric – Chevy truck\, a blunderbuss amid a field of rotary cannons. ‘Fast Freddy’ delights the crowds with half-track burnouts and blistering reverses while his 5.9-second\, 240mph capability can upset any storied opponent. \nOn Pro Mod’s home front\, Bobby Wallace has been running away all season with the Motorsport UK British championship. Wallace has reached Santa Pod’s last six Pro Mod final rounds\, winning four. His only defeats have come in previous combined rounds at the hands of Jan Ericsson. Can Wallace now go one better and take victory ahead of the dominant Swede\, or will the British champion-elect’s stellar progress be interrupted early on? With 22 entrants to be squeezed into Sunday’s 16-car eliminations field\, qualifying will alone be worth the price of admission. \nOverseas entries also compete in the Pro Stock and Top Methanol classes. Top Methanol features Dragsters and Funnies racing together. Supporting them all is a full programme of Sportsman competition. \nOn two wheels\, FIM-Europe competition includes Top Fuel Bikes\, SuperTwin Bikes\, Pro Stock Bikes and Super Street Bikes. Last time out at Santa Pod in May\, Sweden’s Top Fuel Bike champion Rikard Gustafsson twice exceeded 260mph to set a remarkable new European speed record. Similar exceptional performance figures were attained in Super Street Bike when Britain’s race-winner Alan Morrison Jr. topped 230mph. \nAlongside the championships\, track action includes three spectacular Jet Cars and Graham Sykes’ extraordinary steam-powered ‘rocket’ bike\, Force of Nature (yes\, powered by steam – boiling water!) which has already clocked sub-7-second\, 150mph quarter-mile passes. Away from the track\, Santa Pod’s regular programme of family attractions includes Monster Trucks\, stunt shows\, children’s entertainments\, funfair rides and live music.\n\nThe European Finals takes place at Santa Pod Raceway\, near Wellingborough NN29 7XA\, from Thursday 7th to Sunday 10th September 2023. Full information can be found at https://santapod.co.uk/european-finals.php and tickets may be booked online at https://santapodtickets.com/ or by telephoning the box office at 01234 782828.

His father a WW11 Squadron Leader serving in Africa. \nUnsurprisingly he joined the RAF and learnt to fly in a Provost at Cranwell. Tragically his father was killed in a flying accident during his course and he left the service. \nIn 1962 Robs bought a Mini Cooper modified by renown tuner Don Moore\, entered into a number of races competing against a well known member of BMRC\, whose identity will be revealed at the meeting! \nHe quickly developed to become a professional international racing driver. Within just two years his first pro race was at the 1964 Canadian Grand Prix at Mosport Park\, in a Brabham BT8\, shown here at Laguna later that year.\n \nIn the following years he competed in an incredible long list of single seaters and sports cars\, both in period and historic cars.\nA common addiction is his enthusiasm for BRM’s\, he still owns a P25 and P48 shown here competing in France at Angouléme .\n \nRobs will also reveal his memorable meeting with Louis Stanley in Bourne to acquire three former team cars. This proved to be a catalyst for owning\, competing and dealing in historic racecars. Many can be viewed in a rolling presentation on the night prior to Robs’ talk. \nAmongst them is the ex Jim Clark Lotus 33 which took him to his second World Championship in 1965.\n \nA former North American Racing Team (NART) Ferrari 275LM found languishing in Ecuador fitted with a NSU Wankel Engine! Eventually its original engine was located as part of a total renovation and sold by the new owner for a world record sum.\n \nRobs rekindled his passion for aviation\, when together with his brother in law he purchased an ex RAF WW11 Harvard advanced trainer. \nIn the mid 1970’s following a tip off from a friend he travelled to Israel in search of two abandoned WW11 Hawker Hurricanes in a scrap yard in Tel Aviv. The dealer was located in a street translated from Hebrew as “The street of a thousand bent car dealers” Sure enough there they were\, purchased and bought back to Duxford for restoration. \nEventually the search widened and Spitfires and P51 Mustang’s found derelict in a Kibbutz\, given as a gift for the children to play in! They were acquired together with a host of spares and form the basis for many Warbirds now flying today. \nHis prowess as a pilot featured not only in air shows but were in demand in the film industry\, he flew his aircraft in Memphis Belle\, Pearl Harbour and Dark Blue World. Robs has so many stories to tell it at has been an impossible task selecting those to focus on for the evening but I am certain it will be a highly entertaining and informative evening\, not to be missed!!
