Our aim is to create a family orientated atmosphere for young and old alike where everyone can enjoy a great day's racing. The 600 metre long track is super fast and creates some excellent racing with it’s kidney shape layout providing a long sweeping corner with some tight bends to keep it real.
Members of the public are welcome to come along and enjoy the racing. Bring your family or mates along for good day out. At this stage, entry is free for spectators, but we do charge a gate fee on our BRE days. A pit pass can be purchased for $10 to get up and close to the drivers and their karts.
