World Time Attack Challenge

The World Time Attack Challenge is the largest time attack event globally, with motorsport enthusiasts from around the country and abroad attending the event every year.

During the two-day event, spectators see the fastest teams worldwide compete against the clock. The Drift Challenge is an exciting highlight, as elite drifters battle head-to-head in the biggest drift event in Australia.

Other thrilling features of the event include the Turbosmart Flying 500, which is when the fastest tuner cars in the country battle it out. It’s an adrenaline-charged event and has always been a crowd favourite as 1000-hp cars compete for top speed. Fans may also get to see the biggest motorsport legends during the event.

Patrons are also treated to various activities and attractions inside and outside the track. The Trader Alley is filled with exhibitors showcasing their latest merchandise and offering expert consultations on motorsport.

Automotive enthusiasts will be amazed at the array of engine components, brakes, suspension, wheels, turbos, and car care products on display at the event. Several food outlets are located in the Pit Zone, the ski pad area, and behind the Grand Stand.

However, spectators should remember that Pit Lane, located on the trackside of the garages, is a restricted area. Only accredited media and competitors will be allowed inside Pit Lane, but the Pit Building Roof and the Grand Stand are open to the public. The quickest way to reach the Grand Stand from the Pit Zone is by taking the underground tunnel between the control tower and the Pit Building.

Disabled facilities are available, although parking will be limited. Just show disability stickers to security, and they will assist you in finding a spot. A lift can also take you to the Pit Building roof.

Getting There
