Practice

As practice is being conducted jointly with the ARDC we must also allow the public to enter in separate groups. This means that public practice entrants may have occupied the garages that our entrants were to use over the weekend.

We intend to avoid this potential clash by reserving the garages of those who enter practice AND the weekend event, and closing them to the public entrants on Friday morning. This makes it imperative that you enter practice online ahead of time so that we know who will be using their garages on Friday.

Please enter in advance online by clicking this link. Reach out if you need help navigating the entry.

The reality is that the number of public entrants as of today is very low, so your chances of having a clash with a public entrant is similarly low. This should be overwhelmingly an HSRCA practice session.

Finally, on the note of track time – we intend to offer 4 sessions of practice over the Friday.

Those competitors who do not enter Friday Practice should leave bump-in until after 3:00pm on Friday to ensure that they can access their garages. If you get there much earlier you should be doing practice!

No access will be available until 6:00am Friday morning, but you may leave trailers in Parking 5, which is to the right of the entry gate up the hill.

Bump In

Access will be available between 12:00pm and 7:00pm on Thursday evening, and from 6:00am on Friday morning. You may leave trailers in Parking 5, which is to the right of the entry gate up the hill.

Paddock Layout and Use

A paddock map is at the above link. Please adhere to this map, particularly in taking up a position on the skid pan. Also, please assist by parking your tender vehicle and trailer in the designated parking areas (not the paddock.)

  • E-85 Race Blend – $2.75 per litre
  • Elf Race 102 – $5.50 per litre

The bowsers at SMSP have also been updated with Paywave, so competitors can ‘tap and go’ when they get their fuel. To buy your fuel:

  • Press 1 on the keypad to begin
  • Select your required pump
  • Tap or insert credit card
  • Enter your required amount in dollars. Enter full dollar amounts, no decimal places
  • Go to the pump and fill your car or jerry can

If any entrants require Elf Core 50 at the event, this will need to be ordered through fuelorder@racefuels.com.au or by calling the office (03) 9706 5233.
