Mr Micallef beat his personal best of 3.91 seconds and a top speed of 302mph, which he acquired a fortnight ago at the Tierp Arena in Sweden.
He now holds the record for the fastest lap in the European FIA drag racing finals, besides setting a new track record for the Santa Pod race track in the UK.
At the championships, Malta was also represented by Glenn Borg and Shawn Buttigieg.
