Lake Family Racing

Well workshop prep is well underway for the 2026 seasons with some of our crucial parts arriving just before Christmas.

The 2025 season didn’t quite go to plan with a major parts failure mid year. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our sponsors, supporters, family and friends for all the support during the year.

Special shoutout to Tony and the Pine
Mountain Performance team for trying everything they could to get us back on track, even offering the spare engine for us to use 🙏

Merry Christmas to all, stay safe and see everyone next year. Bring on 2026….

Big shout out to the big chief at Pine Mountain Performance (LFR engine builder 👌) and the Pine Crew for an outstanding result winning the NDRC Aeroflow Allstar event in Sydney on the weekend.
Well done boys 💪🎉🍻🍻🍻🍻

Well not the news and picture below we wanted to share 😞. Unfortunately Lake Family Racing has had to withdraw from this year Gulf Western Oil Winternationals. We had a major parts failure recently and unfortunately we cannot get the parts in time for this event.
We would like to wish all competitors the very best of luck, and thank all the staff and officials from Willowbank Raceway for all the back ground work to run the biggest and best race in the country.
On a positive note, all of Lake Family Racing merchandise will be available for purchase at the Wild Ink stand in Trade alley.
As always we could not do this without our sponsors and supporters below.

Big shout out to Lake Family Racings engine builder Tony Whyatt and the Pine Mountain Performance team for just winning the Gulf Western Oils Nitro Champs in Top Sportsman, well done boys….. 🎉🍻💪
