Donegal hot rod driver Drew Russell had a perfect day on Sunday in Tipperary.

The Letterkenny native, now living in Drumkeen, had three wins in the three races.

Russell excelled at the Tipperary Raceway in round 11 of the Advance Pitstop World Qualifying series.

Russell won the two heats and came out on top in the Open Class RWD final.

Last year, he was the all-round hot rod winner.

His car is based on a Peugeot 205.

Russell developed his love of hot rod racing from a young age when he remembered attending stock car races at Woodlands.
