About

Welcome to the new Cackling Pipes website – if it’s extreme and bleeds horsepower we plan to cover it with high quality imagery.

The launch of this new site marks 20 years since Cackling Pipes first appeared on the internet – we were the first dedicated drag racing news site in Australia – and after various format changes we are now focusing on showcasing and promoting motorsport through our photography.

Motorsport is an assault on the senses and through photography we can capture instants in time that can demonstrate the fury on motorsport in that one frame.

We hope our site not only showcases our work but also helps to promote the sports we cover through the site article we will put up.

We plan to give love to a range of extreme horsepower motorsports that don’t get much mainstream coverage, including drag racing, burnouts, speedway, boats and anything else pumps out the ponies and gets the adrenaline flowing.
