Trevor Branden Breaks into the Sevens at Sick Week 2026

Canadian racer Trevor Branden has officially made history.

At Sick Week 2026 Presented By Gear Vendors Overdrive, Trevor set a new record in the Sick Week Freaks class, becoming the first competitor to push the category into the sevens with a staggering 7.847 average in his Nissan GT-R.

Taking an all-wheel-drive car down the strip consistently is no small task. Managing traction, power delivery, and driveline stress over multiple days of drag-and-drive competition requires a dialed-in setup and serious driving skill. Trevor and his team made it look almost effortless, round after round, laying down the kind of performance that wins events and sets records.

And win he did.

Against tough competition, Trevor powered through the week to claim the overall Sick Week Freaks victory. Breaking into the sevens is impressive on its own. Doing it with a 7.847 average across the event is what truly cements this achievement in the record books.

At the heart of this record-setting performance is boost — and plenty of it. Trevor’s GT-R is running a pair of True North Turbos TNTSF68 turbochargers, delivering the airflow and consistency needed to dominate a demanding multi-day event.
Drag-and-drive racing isn’t just about peak horsepower. It’s about reliability, repeatability, and efficiency. The TNTSF68 setup proved it can handle all three, helping push the Sick Week Freaks class into new territory.

A Milestone for Canadian Motorsport

Seeing a Canadian racer take home the win on a stage this big makes the moment even sweeter. Trevor and his team put in the work, made the right calls, and executed when it mattered most.

Congratulations, Trevor, on an incredible accomplishment. Breaking records. Winning the event. Putting Canada on the map in a major way.
