After kicking off the 2024 European SFI re-certification tour at Santa Pod Raceway on the Tuesday, it was time for the Dutch stop on the Thursday morning, March 13. Racers and team members from Germany, The Netherlands and even Italy, travelled to Hotel Ibis, located almost at Schiphol Airport, to re-certify parts to be race ready when the new season kicks off in a few weeks.

With the start of the 2024 drag racing season not far away, it’s time for the 2024 SFI Inspections Tour. There is a slight change in the traditional schedule as the first stop is now in the UK at Santa Pod Raceway. “With the Festival of Power falling on an early date this year, we hope this helps racers have as much time as possible to prepare for their first event after having their parts inspected,” said SFI Foundation president Jennifer Faye.
