Sam
(a second generation drag racer) was born into the sport
and attended his first race meeting at only 2 weeks old.
Ever since, Sam has been a regular at the race track and
was given an opportunity to ride his fathers National
Title winning modified bike right after his 18th
birthday.

Sam started off with this bike in the Modified
Bike class where he had some success but eventually
moved up into Competition Bike after putting a slightly
more serious motor into the frame. While spending a
couple of seasons in Competition bike (running under the
C/CB index), Sam built himself a brand new Pro Stock
motorcycle and debuted it at the start of the 2006/07
season.
With
current personal bests at 7.69 and 170mph, Sam has
proven himself in one of the most competitive classes in
ANDRA drag racing in only his first season and with an
all new combination. He looks forward to further
developing this combination down into the 7.3-7.4 second
region at over 180mph and hopefully winning some Group
One trophies. For further information on the Parker
Family Racing Team, please check out http://www.dragrace.com.au
for the latest news.
Sam would like to
thank his major Sponsor's, Dearies Spray and Pumping
Equipment and Semple's Pump Centre for all of their
support.
