Behind the venue are three passionate motorsport enthusiasts whose combined experience spans decades of racing, car building, engineering and business. Their shared vision is simple, to create Australia's premier destination for drag racing, drifting, burnouts and major automotive events.
Together, they are investing in the future of Australian motorsport by developing a world-class facility that competitors, promoters and fans can proudly call home.
