Hi guys and girls,
Most of you may be familiar with the original 3.93km Eastern Creek Raceway circuit - you may have had your most memorable moments at the circuit at ATCC or V8 Supercar rounds, or maybe you were lucky enough to have the chance to race on the circuit. What you may not know is that in 2011, the circuit underwent a $12 million dollar upgrade which enabled the original 3.93km GP circuit to be split into four different configurations, creating a motorsport megaplex now known as Sydney Motorsport Park (SMSP). The new facility is just about utilised every day of the year, from car and bike track days and grass-roots racing through to massive motorsport and entertainment events. Whether you’re a car enthusiast, avid motorsport supporter or even an amateur competitor there will definitely be something on the cards that sparks your interest.
The original 3.93 kilometre Grand Prix circuit is now renamed the Gardner GP Circuit.
THREE ADDITIONAL CIRCUIT CONFIGURATIONS!
The new 4.5km Brabham Circuit combines the classic Grand Prix layout with an additional 830m of track that branches out from the southern end of the circuit.
GP North was the first new circuit for Sydney Motorsport Park, created via the addition of a link road between turns four and fifteen, utilising the northern half of the Grand Prix circuit.
Running around the famous Corporate Hill, GP South incorporates the 830m extension from turn 6 through to turn 14. For more detailed information on new circuit configurations visit: http://www.sydneymotorsportpark.com.au/about-the-park

ARDC SUPERSPRINT SERIES
A Supersprint is a speed event where cars are sent out onto the circuit in pairs to set their fastest single lap. The pairings are sent out at 10-second intervals, with the fastest at the front to minimise overtaking. It is not a race - in fact, anyone found to be “racing” is sent straight to the stewards. It’s a race against the clock!
ARDC MEMBERS receive a 10% discount on entry fees to ARDC Super Sprints rounds.
