The Fultrot Magazine is a division of SDDK Motorsports which is a non-profit foundation dedicated to the promotion of motorsport.
The word “fultrot” is papiamentu for wide-open-throttle, pedal to the metal or just full trottle, as the writer resides on the colourful island of Curaçao and uses this word a great deal himself.
Short interesting articles are written about the past, present, and future of motor sport, by Danny de Kort, who’s an amateur writer. He got his passion for the sport from his father Eddie, a rally car driver and drag racer himself.
The FulTrot Magazine is the continuation of FulTrot.blogspot.com which has a pretty decent following around the world of more than 70,000.

- Car themed events, such as the 50th Anniversary of the 911, the Hot Cars & Hot Cakes event, the Harley-Davidson Braggin’ Rights at the CIR, Exotic Car Drives, Drag Race Test Sessions,
- publication of valuable information to car enthusiasts and racers, such as the “pocket size” drag race rule book,
- organization of supporting programs such as Drag Race Photography contests,

The founder, a race car driver himself, owned and drove a 762 ci Mountain Motor powered Chevy Cobalt Pro Stock called Piss’d Off Pete in the Top Gun category in Curaçao.
