Colorado native Anderson got his start
in drag racing behind the wheel of a
stocker in the 1960s before eventually
working his way up to the Alcohol
Funny Car class, where he amassed an
impressive 24 national event victories
and three NHRA world championships.
Anderson was the hands-down driver to
beat in Alcohol Funny Car in the
mid-1980s and won the prestigious U.S.
Nationals three times.
Anderson’s impact on the AFC class,
and a number of others, however, went
far beyond his on-track success as he
was responsible for dozens of other
event victories and championships in
nitro and alcohol categories as a
provider of cutting-edge performance
parts. Now, as it has been for more
than 30 years, Brad Anderson
Enterprises’ engine block and cylinder
head production is world-renowned in
the sport of drag racing.
BAE engine components can be found
around the motorsports world in every
arena, from tractor pulls, drag boats,
sand drags, monster trucks, mud bogs,
nostalgia Funny Car, alcohol and fuel
Funny Car, alcohol and Top Fuel
dragsters. And of course door cars in
a number of categories are equipped
with BAE components.
In the PDRA, BAE’s long list of
customers range from those running in
the Pro Extreme class all the way
through Top dragster and Top
sportsman.
“I feel good about the PDRA as it
continues to move forward,” Anderson
said. “They’ve made a lot of positive
moves and they are the future for
eighth-mile door cars. A lot of our
customers choose to race with the PDRA
and we’re just trying to support
them.”
Anderson takes great pride in being
the manufacturer of choice for racers
looking for the best engineered and
best built parts available when it
comes to putting together reliable
race-winning combinations.
“We try very hard to give our
customers what they want,” Anderson
said.
“We are extremely happy to welcome
Brad Anderson and BAE to the PDRA this
season,” said PDRA Race Director Bob
Harris. “Brad’s reputation as a
top-notch competitor, parts designer
and manufacturer is second to none.
Many of our racers depend on BAE
components to give them a winning
edge, and to have this prominent
company as a part of the PDRA as we
kick off our second season is a
perfect fit for all of us.”
