A FRESH START

It's been a thrilling 3-month sprint as we've worked closely with our neighbours, Goulburn Mulwaree Council and our avid motorsport community to craft a future that balances the needs of our local community, yet will still deliver an extraordinary racing experience and a much needed economic boost to the region.

We've got the official nod, our roadmap is council-approved and ready to roll out.

A NEW ERA, A NEW NAME

One Raceway, a name that encapsulates our passion to bring everyone together with a genuine sense of unity, community and respect.

Hold tight, we’re aiming to launch One Raceway the first half of 2024.

TWO CIRCUITS, ONE RACEWAY

In a move that redefines Motorsport for an entire generation, we're introducing an Australian first: a dual-direction circuit. This isn't just big, it's monumental. Each track will bear its own identity—unique names, individual records, and distinct vibes. Forget packing up your car for a different experience; at One Raceway, the next thrill is just a lap away. This game-changing feature is set to challenge even the most seasoned racers while offering spectators a viewing experience like never before.

MORE DETAILS

Dialling down the noise, amping up the views

Our southern noise wall is almost across the finish line, and the northern counterpart is well underway. These aren't just barriers; they're vantage points for fans. And rest assured, we're keeping noise levels capped at 95dB.

A nod to safety, a leap in innovation

After consults with Motorsport Australia and Motorcycling Australia, we're implementing safety features that aren't just essential—they're innovative. Think revamped pit exits, improved track corners, international-grade light panels, and advanced timing systems that have the industry buzzing.

Built to last, ready for any weather

We've bypassed quick fixes in favour of a complete circuit resurfacing. What's next? Advanced drainage systems to keep our track race-ready, come rain or shine.

We're listening, we're improving

We're not just sprucing up the asphalt; we're amplifying your overall experience, starting with a freshly resurfaced paddock. And keep that feedback coming, because we're making facility-wide improvements tailored to your insights.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO SHAPE HISTORY AND ACCELERATE OUR LAUNCH

We're calling on you—our community of enthusiasts—to volunteer. We're fully committed to getting One Raceway up and running as soon as possible, and your involvement will bring this track to you sooner. Whether you have trade skills, a love for motorsport, or simply a desire to be part of this journey, your contribution will push us closer to the finish line.

What about the Land and Environment Court decision?  How can you operate more than 4 days per month?

The previous owners' LEC-approved DA with its 4-day operation condition was rescinded before our acquisition; we now operate under the 1993 DA guidelines and have implemented noise abatement measures and a transparent event calendar to ensure compliance.

With the mention of the 1993 DA and its obligations, can you provide more context on how these changes align with or expand upon the original directive?

The LEC's decision and the subsequent DA were rescinded by the previous owner before our acquisition, reverting back to the 1993 DA.  We're collaborating with the neighbours and council to address the noise concerns and implement measures to mitigate the noise, including provisions specified in the 1993 DA such as implementing a detailed operational schedule and constructing noise abatement walls.

How can you operate the circuit given the extensive issues that led to its closure?

We have cultivated strong relationships with our neighbours, the council, and the NSW government. Through mutual trust, collaboration, and compromise, and by upholding our commitments, we have created a framework that will soon allow the circuit to resume operations.

The integration of international-grade light panels and advanced timing systems aims to elevate and redefine the racing experience, while also improving safety by eliminating the need for dangerous infield marshal posts.

The renovations we are planning will cost several millions of dollars, being entirely self-funded, except for a $1m contribution from the Labor government towards noise abatement.

To maintain the 95dB noise cap and secure our track's future, we're building noise walls and implementing an operational calendar that provides noise respite.  If your car or bike is too loud, you still have time to fix it…
