Formula Tasman features some of the fastest circuit racing in Australia. The category is for single-seater, open wheeler racing cars, from a diverse range of backgrounds. Cars from Formula 1, Indycar, ChampCar, Formula 3000, Formula Nippon, Formula Holden/4000, Formula 5000, Formula Atlantic, Formula R and more are all eligible.

Formula Tasman's diversity has something to appeal to everyone, whether you're after the high-technology of modern open-wheelers like Formula 1, Indycars and Formula 3000s, or if you prefer your racing raw, with the brute force of Formula 5000s, or if it's high-fidelity you crave, there is the precision of the Formula Atlantics.

Formula Tasman harks back to the hey-day of Australian open wheeler racing, when the big boys of Formula One would do battle with the local Formula Two and Formula 5000 heroes.

The Touring Car Challenge showcases the past 20 years of Australian Touring Car history. Featuring ex-V8 Supercars, Super Tourers, Future Tourers and Group A cars.

The cars that have captured Australia's imagination, and launched the careers of many Australian champions feature strongly in the Touring Car Challenge. The diversity of the cars is what makes the Touring Car Challenge great - the big power of the ex-V8 Supercars means they have an advantage on the fast circuits, but the more nimble handling and superior braking of the other cars, like the Super Tourers, means they get their own back on the tighter circuits. Overall, who gets the upper hand is anyone's guess, which only serves to make the Touring Car Challenge all the more exciting.

Inspired by the Prototype Sports Cars seen at Le Mans, the LM Sports cars are high speed, high technology, high action Sports Cars.

With a variety of manufacturers represented, including WEST (USA), Radical (UK), Saker (NZ & Aus), Minetti (Aus) and more, LM Sports boasts outstanding diversity, and some cutting edge technology. The cars feature a broad range of engine configurations, from 1000cc, high-revving motorcycle-derived 4-cylinders, to turbocharged boxer engines, and whilst nobody has been crazy enough to do it yet, we're looking forward to the day when a V8-powered car lines up on the grid! The composite bodies aren't there for show either - some serious downforce is produced by the cars, resulting in amazing grip, and VERY fast laptimes.

Production Racing Cars follow the true tradition of Australian motorsport - cars that can be bought from the dealer, made safe for racing with minor modifications and then raced hard - just like they used to do at Bathurst.

With a broad range of manufacturers represented, Production Racing Cars truly is a fantastic showcase for the carmakers - providing the opportunity to demonstrate who makes the best car. It's a great category for drivers too - with the minimal modification allowed, it comes down to the driver being able to find a balance between getting the most out of a car, and having enough mechanical sympathy to get the car to the end of the race.

RocketSports is a class that is all about driver skill. It features economical race cars that may be small in size, but are huge in performance.

The class has a strong driver-development focus, where modifications and developments to the cars are kept to a minimum, and a number of innovations are incorporated to ensure drivers gain the maximum experience from competing - things like different format starts (rolling and standing), reverse-grid races, and much more.

The cars are strong and reliable, and help make RocketSports a true breeding ground for the stars of tomorrow.

Muscle Division caters for all types of production-based racing cars. From the venerable HQ Holdens, to V8-powered Ford and Holden Utes, to ex-Commodore Cup cars, Improved Production, Sports Sedans (non-spaceframe) and Japanese Turbos, as well as Classic Touring Cars and more.

Muscle Division is one of the most diverse categories around, and the beauty of the racing format is that everyone has a chance of winning. With handicap races, it all comes down to consistency and getting the most out of your machine on the day.
