Entries are now open for Round 1 of the iRace Series at Sydney Motorsport Park (Eastern Creek) on 14th June 2014.

This year will see the introduction of “Formula Mono”, a development category for single seaters including Formula Fords, Formula Vees, Formula Juniors and other non wings and slicks single-seaters. These are the formulas that the Formula 1 greats cut their teeth on and are renowned for frenetic racing. It will provide a growth path to the established “Formula Tasman”, which captures the noise and glamour of the sixties and seventies when Australia hosted Grand Prix stars, who fought with the gallant local heroes. This year we confidently expect an influx of new cars and drivers including international entrants. So expect to be wowed by the might of F1, Indycars, F5000, F4000, F3000, F2, F3 and Formula Atlantic.

Sportscar racing will also see dramatic expansion, both with the purpose built track cars of the “LeMans Sports” category and an array of modern, exotic and historic road based machinery in the “Sportscar Cup”.

For those that love door-to-door racing, there will be a wide array of road going touring cars in the “Production Racing Cars” category, plus the awesome display of race modified machinery in the “Muscle Division”. Come and enjoy the best from Australia take on the European, American and Asian imports.

This year there will be more  for the family in the paddock, with “Show and Shine” demonstrations by specialist car clubs. Don’t be surprised to see people in period costume and watch out for air displays and jumping castles for the kids. We will be creating our own take on the Goodwood Festival, putting on a complete show to fascinate dedicated race fans and casual family and corporate visitors alike.

Stay tuned for the flow of announcements on the www.irace.net.au website and in the media.

Click to choose between online, mail/fax in or to have an entry form sent out to you. Entry fee is the standard $395, so show your support for the iRace Series by getting your entry in early, and you could be one of the ones to get the surprise rewards and prizes.
