About
About 5 years ago (2007) the SHDRC was reformed to look into opportunities to build an eighth mile drag strip at Chisholm Reserve, a block of land designated for motorsport activities in the Swan Hill district.
Chisholm Reserve currently accommodates speedway, motor cross, go karts and short track dirt races. A number of years ago they used to run dirt drags on the parcel of land allotted to the drag club, but this hasn’t taken place for a number of years.
With a newly formed club and land to build a drags strip on Lucas Woodburn approached ANDRA in 2008 to get the ball rolling. Working closely with Brenton Meyers, ANDRA’s Events and Operations Manager, Lucas and the club prepared a proposal that highlighted the economic benefit that a drag strip would bring to the local community.
