  Records Broken at Santa Pod Last Weekend 2 Jun 2009 (News)
  Not only did many racers manage to pip their personal bests, but also, numerous FIA records were dispatched with scant regard for their importance. In Top Methanol dragster, Dave Wilson piloted his car to a new lowest elapsed time of just 5.304 seconds, whilst Fred Hanssen reached an unprecedented terminal speed of 266.47 mph. Hugely impressive times for this class. Not to be outdone, Andy Robinson clicked off a neat 6.100 ET figure in his Pro Modified car with Jimmy Allund hitting both ET and terminal speed records in the Pro Stock class by reaching 206.84 mph in just 6.694 seconds!
