RUN THE WALL — High Risk. Higher Reward
This layout has claimed its fair share of drift cars — and egos. Drivers flow through the first two corners, lining up the perfect speed and angle to launch it deep onto the bowl and skim the wall — just millimetres from disaster. Too shallow? You miss the moment. Too deep? You’re in the wall. This is precision, pressure, and pure crowd chaos.
KING OF THE 8 — Drift Battles for the Crown
Eight of Victoria’s best go head-to-head in a no-qualifying, sudden-death battle tree. It’s all on the line — one mistake and you’re out. No second chances, no resets. Just pure competition, high-stakes tandems, and one driver walking away with the cash, the glory, and the crown.
PREMIUM MERCHANDISE — PLUS CROWD MERCH GIVEAWAYS!
You know the drill. Come say hey at the Keep It Reet merch tent and pick up some warm goodies for a night of non-stop drifting! Rumour has it we'll be throwing some kang merch out to the crowd at some stage in the night as well. So keep an eye out! See you there!
ANTI-LAG BATTLE — PSI60 vs the Fake Lambo
Two wild builds. One brutal showdown. The quad-turbo VL PSI60 takes on Mike Lake’s turbo rotary Fake Lambo in a flame-throwing, limiter-bashing 2-step comp that shakes the ground. The cars go head-to-head, taking turns lighting up the night — and the crowd decides who brought the most heat.
Get ready for chaos in formation — it’s Team Drift!
Three (or more) drivers. One goal: throw down the tightest, smokiest, edge-of-disaster tandem runs they can.
It’s not just about skill — it’s about trust, guts, and how close you can get without swapping paint.
Watch teams push their limits and each other in this wild halftime showdown!
RIDE WITH A PRO — Add-On Experience
Strap in for 2 wild laps with a hand-picked PRO driver in a fully built drift weapon. Smoke, speed, and sideways chaos — all from the passenger seat. It’s the closest you’ll get to the action without holding the wheel.
