The biggest event of the year is back for its 52nd running, the largest championship drag racing event held outside of North America, is the final round of the 400 Thunder season for all of the country’s championships.

From the amazing flame-throwing 500km/h Top Fuelers through to Junior Dragsters, every bracket that competes for national championship honours will be represented at the Gulf Western Oil Winternationals, with more than 500 cars and motorcycles from all over the country expected to be on track over four big days of racing.

There is non-stop action each day from Thursday June 6 to Sunday June 9, both on and off the track, with thrilling racing complimented by a wide range of activities near the seating areas and in the competitor paddock – all conducted in a festive atmosphere. Spectators have a range of viewing options available to them, from finding a grassy spot on “the hill” to general admission and reserved grandstand seating; while corporate guests have a range of options available from the permanent fixtures of the instantly recognisable Willowbank Raceway corporate centre and the RCE Performance Corporate Club to the purpose-built Sky Marquee of the Gulf Western Oil Winternationals.
