Multiple PRA points champion, hard core VW drag racer; he has survived brain surgery and a serious crash in the Fred Simpson fastback... this is The Spoiler, Andy Costello. He only showed up for one PRA race in 1998, but he was both the #1 qualifier and the race winner. This vintage 1989 footage will give you an idea of what he does to relax.

Deep in the heart of V-8 country is a crew of hard-core VW racers that are up for any kind of a challenge. When Austin racer Tom Funnell heard there was a burnout contest on the internet he fired up his 2110 and laid down a burnout that will leave you smelling rubber for a week! He earned himself a free PRA video and maybe won the contest as well.

Check out this smoking burnout by Edward Bergenholtz in his '89 Honda CRX. Edward runs in the Quick-8 front wheel drive class, and he ran a 10.62@138 m.p.h. at the Goodtimes Import Challenge on 5/98. These kinds of record-setting passes are what makes import racing the sport of the future!
