In the early days drag racing was an outlaw sport, played out on the streets of North America, the rules were simple, cars were pitched against each other over a predetermined distance from a standing start, first across the line took the win. That was more than 50 years ago and though the sport has come a long way since then there’s still something special about heads-up racing. In 2006 the Outlaw Flat Four Drag Racing Club brought this tradition to the UK VW scene for the first time with an all new race series.
With Drag Racing originating in North America as you might expect it was the cars from Detroit that dominated the sport through its formative years but in time imported cars started to make a mark on the sport. One of the earliest of these was the VW and the Volkswagen flat four engine has maintained a mighty presence to this day. There are probably almost as many tuning options for the flat four as any of the favoured V8 configurations and despite continued advancements in technology a built VW motor can still hold out against the myriad of engines in today’s sport such as those from Japan. The Outlaw Flat Four Drag Racing Club intends to maintain the profile of the VW flat four by not only running its own series but also through organising feature races with other parts of the UK's racing community and in so doing hopes to help maintain the momentum the UK racing scene as whole has gained in recent years.
