The Australian National Drag Racing Association (ANDRA) has appointed Grant Goodall as its new CEO.
Goodall joins the national drag racing governing body with limited motorsport experience, having previously acted as chairman of Harness Racing SA and CEO of the SA Amateur Football League.
During an eight-year tenure at Harness Racing SA, which ended in 2011, Goodall received a national award for his services to sport.
Since then he has successfully restructured the SA Amateur Football League, which saw the competition secure a multi-million dollar infrastructure grant from the Federal Government, and a naming rights partnership with Channel Nine.
“I’m looking forward to working with everyone involved in the Drag Racing community and believe my racing, sports administration and business background will put me in good stead to achieve the organization’s goals,” said Goodall.
ANDRA appointed former Shannons Nationals boss Rob Curkpatrick as its interim CEO in September, with new recruit Goodall expected to take over on January 27.
ANDRA chairman Michael Fotheringham is reportedly looking forward to Goodall’s fresh approach to the sport, which is currently negotiating a transitional period following the formation of the breakaway 400 Thunder Series.
