Australian National Drag Racing Association
The Australian National Drag Racing Association, or ANDRA for short, is a drag racing sanctioning body in Australia.
The organisation was created in 1973 from a more drag racing oriented faction of the Australian Hot Rod Federation.
Today ANDRA sanctions races throughout Australia at all levels, from Top Fuel to Junior Dragster, on everything from temporary regional tracks to international standard facilities in capital cities such as the Perth Motorplex.
It also manages the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Series - the calendar for which can be viewed - and also sanctions group one racing at select events, for example at the 2019 Westernationals where .
It was announced in January 2020 that Top Fuel match races will appear at the 2020 Westernationals, which will also feature Top Doorslammer and Top Fuel Motorcycle racers competing for Gold ANDRA Christmas Tree trophies alongside the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Series competition.
