Temporary ban imposed pending police investigation into the crash that killed Anita in Perth at the weekend, two days after her eighth birthdayJunior competition drag racing has been banned in Western Australia pending a police investigation into the death of an eight-year-old Perth girl at the weekend. The acting premier of Western Australia, Roger Cook, said inquiries would be conducted by the coroner and the Australian National Drag Racing Association, in addition to the police investigation. Anita turned eight on Thursday, the minimum racing age under the rules of the drag-racing association. Pete Styles wrote: “Knowing how much she loved her drag racing and how you guys as a family followed that dream to end up like this ... Remind them that you love them ... We know the racing family are the best bunch ever.
