Check out the video below as MCN takes a sneak preview of preparations for the final round of the European Drag Racing championship.

Some of the most powerful and extreme bikes in the world will be heading to Santa Pod in Northamptonshire this weekend.

The event runs over three days starting Friday, September 7, 2007 with the finals running on Sunday September 9 from 9.30am.

Top fuel bikes with around 1000bhp will be aiming to beat staggering times of around seven seconds down the famous quarter mile strip.

Other classes include the UEM Supertwin Bike – thundering 700bhp twin cylinder motorcycles and the UEM Pro Stock Bikes – screaming, petrol-burning motorcycles.

The European Finals is the last round of the prestigious European Drag Racing Championship, and features the largest race entry and most packed Motorsport event anywhere in Europe.
 
Alongside the international racers is a full supporting line-up of race classes for bikes racing in the British championships including the MSA British Drag Racing Championship and demonstration runs from the 270mph Jet car.
