What's on!
DT LAYOUT - Backwards entries, risk it all!
Tight. Technical. Fast.
The DT Layout is where commitment counts. Fast entries, quick transitions and close proximity make this one of the most exciting layouts at Calder Park.
Drivers run the wall on turn one then send it backwards over the hill on the opposite side of the track, keep an eye on your favorite drivers as they drive to impress on this killer layout!
Premium Show and shINE
Our Show & Shine always brings a stacked mix of cars. Tough JDM builds, tidy Euro cars, unique street projects and everything in between.
If your car turns heads for the right reasons, throw it in the mix. Apply at the link below.
