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.

It also manages the ANDRA Sportsman Series - the calendar for which can be viewed here. - and also sanctions group one racing at select events, for example at the 2019 Westernationals where Top Doorslammer and Top Fuel Motorcycle competitors competed for a Gold ANDRA Christmas Tree trophy.
