Welcome to Black Baron Racing!

Black Baron Racing started life at the beginning of the 2004 british drag racing championship at the Easter Thunderball at Santa Pod Raceway.

 With the team made up of only two people, of which are Owner,driver Andy Agroment and my Dad Steve Agroment turned this once rusting old 1200cc beetle (and blue) into the race car of which you see now and we are (hopefully) gaining in confidence, and trying to be a more professional team.

 With the car first powered by a very mild 1641cc, then it had a 1776cc engine built by dan simpson, and though we never got to see the full potential of the car i did mangae a 16.06 at bugjam 20 in 30+ heat and high humidty. But now the car is powered by a 2110 Dick Landy Ind Supercharged motor, go to the secound page to find out more.

I would like to say a BIG thanks to the following people who have helped us out in building this car you see now:
