The Bend International Circuit Openpitlane Passenger trackday 5th October 2026 (Public Holiday)
Advertisement
It’s our once-a-year October Long Weekend passenger event on the Bend International circuit!
The 4.95km International configuration is the fastest of all the layouts at the Bend, featuring 18 corners including the fearsome quadruple apex 7/8/9/10! Its little wonder its the premier racing layout - and the one drivers most love to test themselves on.
As ever, our day has NO groups and NO sessions, and unlimited passenger rides throughout.
You’ll be mixing it with a combination of high performance sports cars taking their family and friends for high speed thrills, hot hatches with bantering mates, as well as race teams finishing off their season with some charity and sponsor rides. We love all kinds of machinery!

Standard inclusions in the entry price:
6 hours of tracktime on the 18 corner, 4.95km International circuit with NO groups and NO sessions.
Single drivers $695 - drive as much or as little as you want.
Add an additional driver for just $200 and share your track time (each driver may bring their own vehicle).
Passenger laps all event long @$35 per passenger pass* (unlimited laps per passenger).

Our unapologetic approach:
Openpitlane Australia is a “no hoons” event. We craft events that encourage like-minded enthusiasts, committed to honing their craft in a safe and inclusive environment. We don’t belittle entrants by judging and grouping them by their car badge, engine performance or race class. We also welcome those new to circuit motorsport - we all started somewhere.
We brief extensively about what to expect each event - the kinds of machines you’ll be sharing the track with, circuit and weather conditions, and how to show respect and courtesy to all track users. You will be sharing the track with everything from a Hyundai Getz to hypercars, cup cars, and prototypes. Your safety relies on self-awareness, mutual respect, and judicious use of your mirrors!

Proposed Schedule (final event information and confirmed schedule will be confirmed by email to all registered participants approximately 48 hours prior to the event)

MANDATORY driver’s briefing at 8.30am
