Connor Begley - Junior Dragster Australia

A/JD 8000 WA

Connor Begley is the son of well known drag racer Anthony Begley and has been around Drag racing since he can remember. Growing up watching his father race down the track, Connor knew he shared the same passion of a need for speed.

Connor first jumped into a junior dragster at the age 12 and has been racing in the class ever since. “My best moment in the Junior dragster so far is when i made it into the semi finals at the Western Nationals in 2013” he quoted. Connor soon found a passion behind the wheel and also started to crew for his father when he was 13.

begs With lots of experience for someone so young Connor has been able to travel around Australia with his fathers racing team. “One of my favourite memories is when dad came runner up in the Top Fuel Dragter at the Winternationals in 2014″explained Connor. Connor has plans this season to continue crewing for his father at many national meetings over the year (2015) and to continue being behind the wheel of his Junior dragster. Connor does have a goal in mind of what he would like to race after he finishes up in Junior Dragster and it looks like hes very much following in his dads footsteps! “One day I would really love to race a Nitro Funny Car” Connor quoted. No doubt Connor will have enough experience and knowlege to have alot of fun with Nitro! [lookwhostorquing.com]
