Sydney Motorsport Park, located in Eastern Creek, New South Wales, is one of Australia's premier motor racing facilities and the only permanent race track in the Sydney metropolitan area. Opened in 1990 as Eastern Creek International Raceway, the venue was originally built to host the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix. Today, it is owned by the New South Wales Government and operated by the Australian Racing Drivers' Club (ARDC), serving as a world-class hub for both professional competition and community motorsport enthusiasts.
The venue is celebrated for its versatility, offering four distinct track configurations including the 3.93km Gardner GP Circuit and the technical 4.5km Brabham Extended Circuit. One of its most striking features is the state-of-the-art stadium lighting system installed in 2020, which enables high-octane night racing. This has made the 'Sydney SuperNight' a flagship event on the Supercars Championship calendar, creating a vibrant, electrified atmosphere that allows fans to enjoy the action long after the sun goes down.
Beyond professional racing, Sydney Motorsport Park is a central pillar of Australian car and bike culture. It regularly hosts the world-renowned World Time Attack Challenge, the Australian Superbike Championship, and various drifting and TCR events. With its famous high-speed Turn 1 and a comprehensive suite of facilities including a floodable skidpan and the Australian Motorsport Innovation Precinct, the park offers a professional yet accessible environment for everyone from elite drivers to track-day novices.
