Was there recently for roll racing, first time at the track, first time at roll racing, and it didn't disappoint. Great place with a lot of history in the main building cars and bikes. Will be back for sure.

We had a company drive day for the launch of the new Bridgestone Adrenalin RE005 performance tyre, the facilities are excellent the food was great. The track experiences and variety of tracks is second only to the Adelaide street track there's something for everyone from drags, V8 super cars 4wd tracks drifting and many more, and multiple everyday drivers training

Had an amazing day yesterday attending a conference at The Bend. The staff were kind and made us feel safe with each activity. The hot laps and karting were amazing. Hope to be back in the future.

Incredible place.
Well thought design of facilities and the track layouts really shows.
Very good facilities, with very interesting cars displayed.
Hotel is mega - pits underneath, balcony over the pit lane and main straight....
The race tracks are super technical and very enjoyable 😁.
Pity it is 600kms from home....

First night we stayed in a pit lane hotel room , perfect view overlooking rhe pit lane and track , room service food was top quality , the next day was filled with drifting events .
Strong family friendly events and atmosphere , beautiful automotive displays , the venue can handle a large influx of supporters , this is truely what South Australia needed for motor sporting events and enthususists for all to enjoy ,

An amazing motor racing sport complex. So many types of motor racing available from fast GoCarts to the bellowing howls of V8 Supercars. A great display of historic motor cars from decades past to the current day. A well stocked Cafe & merchandise shop. If you’re tired at the end of the day you can stay in a plush Rydges hotel overlooking the track or at the onsite Big 4 Caravan Park.

This facility is exceptionally well-suited for drag racing. The area provides excellent camping opportunities for participants, and the event organizers are highly accommodating.

Amazing track was a first time there, great facilities and really worth the drive up. Was a first time there but there will be many more to come!!

For something a bit different The Information Centre suggested a visit to the Shell V-Power Motorsport Park where you can visit Rydges Pit Lane Hotel. There are two viewing platforms here that you can access, one on the first floor and one on the fourth floor which give you views right over all the racing tracks. On entering the hotel the information person suggested taking the lift to the fourth floor for the best view, there was an event on so that was very appealing. Meanwhile there was a display of premium sports cars on the ground floor that would have even the most disinterested car enthusiasts being impressed. I don’t know how many race tracks were viewed from the fourth floor platform, the area was huge and seemed to go on forever. There were about 12 cars on the track and it was exciting to stand there and watch them doing their laps until they all finally called into the pits.

Can highly recommend the defensive drivers course that The Bend offers,great opportunity to test you and yours cars ability without to much filler.
Engaging instructors with a format that’s keeps you driving.

Truly an amazing venue for South Australia. Have been to a variety of events, but enjoy their Speed off the Street track days best. Do yourself a favour and get up to The Bend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thoroughly enjoyed my Porsche hot laps. The organisation and professionalism of the staff and my driver were faultless. We also had lunch there and the food was excellent. Highly recommended.

Terrific track run by a team of very helpful and friendly professionals. We were there for a ride on track during the lunch break. Looks like many were enjoying their track experiences, lots of smiles. A great day for our group, and lots of exaggerated chat afterwards.

Shell V-Power Motorsport Park – Go Karting 🏎️💨🔥

An incredible experience for anyone who loves speed and adrenaline. The track layout is fast, technical, and heaps of fun — and the karts themselves are well-maintained, responsive, and quick off the mark 💯. Staff were friendly, clear with instructions, and kept everything running smoothly 🙌.

I went during the $100 “All You Can Kart” deal, and it was absolutely worth it — great value for anyone wanting to put in serious laps 🏁.

One thing to keep in mind: wet weather will heavily affect your kart handling 🌧️. Grip drops significantly, so expect sliding, slower control, and a different driving style. Not a deal-breaker — just something to be aware of if you’re chasing your best laps.

Overall, a fantastic karting experience in SA. Perfect for mates, time trials, or anyone wanting a proper motorsport hit. Highly recommend — I’ll be back for more laps! 🔥🏎️

Track experience on the velocette bikes a bucket list tick, the motor sport building is excellent, display of collectable cars , recommend a visit

All I can say is, fantastic!!!
We were lucky enough to have International Club tickets. The staff were so courteous and attentive, the food was great.
Unfortunately, this has ruined my motorsport experience as I will now have to have these types of facilities every time I go to the big events😁

My husband did the Fast Lap experience at The Bend in a La mans dual open cockpit today. The facility is amazing and great to visit. We think he only had two laps instead of three and Adam (The Bend, Manager) was so helpful and insisted my husband get back in the car and make sure he got the full quota. Thank you so much for your understanding. My husband loved the experience and we really appreciated your understanding. Would highly recommend for people who feel the need for speed!

What a Fantastic venue.

Its much better IRL than on the TV.

I would love to return and stay at the walking distance Big 4 and do a track day in something.

Definetly world class

Great track, excellent venue, they'll look after everyone that visits

It's like Disneyland for car lovers. One of the best facilities in the world. An incredible track with a lot of technical features and elevation. Configuration of several tracks. Such a great experience that I shelled out for a Gold Membership. Never thought I'd get out on track again, but built a car to get that shot of adrenaline again. An excellent restaurant and bar/coffee area with amazing views of the track. Highly accessible pit area to get up close to the teams. Track days are precision run and have all the safety that a full race meet would. It's a safe environment to try out your car off the public roads. Drift track is great and has many layouts. Incredible drag racing area of world quality. Off road course and rally track. Plus proper karts in a dedicated area. It's a dream come true, and luckily just 35 minutes from home. One day it might get me back racing. Thanks to all the staff too. You're what makes it special.

Spent time at The Bend, enjoying The Apex League. Whilst here I went for a Hot Lap with Colin in their 5.0 Mustang. It’s the fastest I have ever been in a car before. Had full and total confidence in my personal safety at speeds up to 220 kmh, under Colin’s control. Highly recommend you get out for a fun ride as an activity for a great day out.

Just the best in the country
Best facilities. Best dragway. Best track. Longest track in the southern hemisphere. More corners than la sarthe lemans france. Camping, hotels , food, everything. Go karts

Very different experience. In all fairness we are not motor racing fans so a little biased. All we wanted was a room for the night not realising that once a month they have a race meeting. Our room and bed were most comfortable and certainly there was a buzz about the Rydiges hotel. We had a fairly ordinary supper surrounded by petrol heads. At least the racing finished at 10 pm so we had a good night’s sleep. Advice don’t go on race night.

Excellent place for the Car enthusiast, loved all the amazing cars on display, came to watch friends race in the mini race car event, lots of thrills and spills!
The only negative was the service of the Cafe inside, one staff member was very rude to me, he took my order, but when more than 5 other customers after me had their orders, l enquired as to where mine was? the other staff member said it wasn't there, he had deliberately not put it through, food choice was very limited too.

What an awesome racing facility. World class! Multiple tracks for all types of racing, it's mind blowing. Also has Hotel, sports cars on display, bar & restaurant etc. Worth a look if passing by

Best motor racing curcuit in Australia. We flew over to Adelaide to watch the Australian Superbike Championship final round at Talem Bend. Ive visited many racetracks but "The Bend" was something special. For not much more than normal entrance fee you can buy an Apex pass. With our Apex pass we could wonder around the main pit building. On level 1 theres a bar for a cold beer, and you can book a table in the Apex restaurant overlooking the pit straight and starting grid. Theres also the rooftop or out the front of the bar and restaurant for viewing. We loved it. Will be back in November 2025.

our experience as spectators to a world class event we were at the spring nationals and got cooked in the grandstand why would you build a stand which is directly in the suns path with only patial covered for the people at the top and only 24 degrees and believe me feels like 36 cant immagine january also very poor for such a big event the number of to top fuel and funny cars was so so poor if you want to get the public back you need to address the numbers because a lot of people come a long way also the time just sitting there waiting between events too slow boring and it would be a great idea to have something to entertain the public between events perhaps a live band ect and you will find they will stay longer and tell friends ect i have been in business for 40 years and i have found if you spend the money you will will get it back 3 fold the venue is world class but lacks above thanks dennis couzner 0418829991

My son and I were booked for a Legends experience for my 50th birthday.
This track and venue is world class, first class and best in class.
Both the experience and accommodation, staff and organisation of the day was spot on. Very welcoming and accommodating, nothing too much trouble.
So much fun, such a credit to the motorsport industry. Well done, well be back soon. So much to do.

Great track and decent hotel, everything was as expected or above. However, surprised that your scrutineering air compressor/ pressure gauge was 15 to 20 psi over. Ruined my second (last) session; for beginners could be quite dangerous. Checked at OTR next door and front was 19 psi hot. Will bring own pump next time.

Worst motel restaurant meal ever Dinner was horrible, ordered the Barramundi received 3 thin soggy battered fillets that were tastless, they weren't even prepared in-house, prebattered bought in product. Was told our buffet breakfast would be available from 7am, not buffet, no juice, no yoghurt or cereal order cooked breakfast that was again horrible, plates were stone cold which in turn made what was on the cold. Could wait to leave. Never returning.

The bend motorsport park Is one of the best places for car enthusiasts in south Australia.

They have all types of prestige and luxury cars for show room There staff were really kind

Pls note I have no even went on track or went over to the drag strip or go karting

I am planning on comming to top fuel dragster And maybe soon go to the go karting but I recommend going

Had an absolute blast today with the V8 Mustang drive and hot lap!!

The instructor was awesome and very clear about what to do and helping with track familiarisation.

Absolute kudos to the man and all the staff I met today. I will definitely be back for more laps as a driver and passenger 🏎️💨😎🤙🏻

Awesome place. The mini car museum in the foyer is fantastic and you can go out on the balcony from the first floor bar to view the track from over pit lane.

Finally got the chance to visit Motorsport Park and stay at the Rydges Pit Lane Hotel. Quiet during my visit but excellent display of classic racing cars in the hotel foyer. Great views of the track and surrounds from the top level of the hotel. Plenty of parking.

Visited for car hot laps. Had a fantastic time, great viewing, very friendly helpful staff, brought nice shirts from shop, anyone can visit for free to watch, we had an awesome time. Thankyou.

Such an amazing venue. Multiple race track layouts, skid pans, 4WD area, drag track, rally track, rallycross, drift circuit, kart track, accommodation, restaurant, great coffee,
And don't get me started on the car collection in the foyer.

Totally blown away by this incredible facility. We were there on a Sunday while a track day was happening and it was great to pop up on the sky deck and watch. Also to wander the show cars inside was mouth watering. Follow us Sweet-Az RV'n on youtube ???? ????

WOW love the bend.
We go every year for the V8s.
This time stayed on the track camping area. Soooo much fun.
A must go for everyone.
Atmosphere is a ROAR.
Go MONSTER.
People are great at this event.
We got to do the Pitt walk this year, thanks to some very generous blokes that won 10 spots an 4 pulled out so they offered them to us.
WOW what an experience ????
Up an personal with the race drivers an cars.
GO HAVE A LOOK.
You'll be amazed.

Had never been here before and didn't know what to expect. On arrival the parking was casual and simple which was excellent then straight In through the gate. Easy access awesome facilities cannot wait for more events. Definitely worth the drive up from Adelaide. Plenty to see and do during the Supersprint.

What an exceptional facility, the level
Of care and detail that has gone in to making this a world class venue for all is incredible. We visited for the first time this past weekend for the V8 Supercars and as a spectator wow what an experience! Unparalleled access to the action, public areas that would rival the most exclusive of zones at other facilities. Every little detail has been considered to make a visit to The Bend one you will never forget. I sincerely hope there are more international events headed there way as they certainly deserve them. We can’t wait to go back next year

A great place for the motorsports enthusiast. Very clean and tidy, with good friendly service and like new facilities.

This is an excellent spectator's track. It may be out rural, but it's worth a drive. I went to see the V8's and it was the first time I have been. I will definitely be going back if the V8's are on again next year. I live about 6hrs away.

Went roll racing there and then stayed in the pit lane rooms. Can't fault any of it. Great staff (except for the grumpy old lady that lets you out onto the track) very luxurious hotel with heaps to see and do. Can't wait for the drag track. Only minor issues is the lack of trees etc but hopefully they will come in time.

Bend Motorsport park Great place when no one around, amazing car collection in main hotel reception area to look at, access to sky deck without anyone there. Being a week day nothing going on, however, great place to visit. Go Kart track operating and was able to drive part way around track boundary for a look.

2 night stay with the family.
Overall we had a good time and enjoyed the food and the accommodation at Rydges, nothing much to complain about but if was to get picky I’d have to say please put some bottled water in the rooms and also table water on the tables for diners in the Apex restaurant would be great!
Coffee should absolutely be included with breakfast too, which I must say was superb!

Best racing complex, lots of fun unlike Subject 9 Australia Unlike the horrible Subject 9 Australia I found the complex well laid out, interesting (especially the mini car museum) and all supported with a customer friendly atmosphere coupled with a feeling you are a part of the racing. A great complex, well thought out, customer centric and obviously run by professionals, unlike my experience with Subject 9 Australia.

Great fun doing the Mustang self drive Celebrated a birthday by driving a modified v8 Ford Mustang around the Bend track with a driver in the passenger seat. Quite a different experience than I'm used to driving in my Triton ute! Wow - what an experience - travelling over 200km/h down the straight, how late you can brake and keep that flow going! 5 laps was over in no time and I was starting to warm to it. Navigating other track users was fun and I dont think the driver in the passenger seat soiled himself due to my driving! Well worth the price and I cant wait to do it again!

Great venue and epic cars ????
You get to walk through pit lane after heats and see the owners/drivers and get an insight into the amount of effort and time that goes into their beast. The merch they sell is actually decent and made with good materials.
A great night out for sure!

Great service, great veiw of track cool car displays good merchandise range great value for money super comfy bed and room

Excellent meal and atmosphere Had dinner at the Apex Bar x Dining.
Food was excellent. Nanette went out of her way to accommodate my daughter's dinner requests - nuggets, no chips, lettuce and beetroot. She made sure everything was to our liking all throughout the evening.

DON'T DINE THERE, OR GO FOR DRINKS Huge complex, but forget eating there
Non Alco beer a Rip off @ $11. a bottle. ( Woolworths sell this beer for $9 for a 6 pack) The Burger i was served was a rather dry bun, non toasted, and a Pattie that had obviously been frozen and thrown on the BBQ for a few minutes. Therefore raw and somewhat cold in the centre, a few sliced pickles and a piece of melted cheddar and drowned in aoli All accompanied by re fried crinkle cut over salted chips. The cost $24. The worst and most expensive load of excrement I have ever been served. The so called Chef should hang his/her head in shame, roll up his/her knives and go back to school and take a recourse.
I would not recommend this eatery to anyone, Your local pub would be a better option. Even street food in the outer parts of Vietnam make better food than this high priced low class food eatery!

A well organised track cruise with a great overnight stay, dinner and breakfast. Lots of smiling faces after the cruise! Excellent room overlooking pits and track. Perfectly positioned bar and dining. And of course the exceptional staff.

Pit lane experience . Accomo meal and breakfast and track cruise Great staff , friendly and helpful. Nice food and quick service lovely clean rooms with great bedding and room furniture.
Got a upgrade to an executive suite was very nice had Pit Lane experience with own car great fun thrills something that everyone needs to do

Excellent meal and very friendly staff. The vehicles on display are amazing. Lovely modern facilities

It's very interesting here. There are sports cars inside, a couple of race cars, and some like the F1s. You can purchase a coffee or an alcoholic drink and sit down to enjoy. There are also many souvenirs available. A restaurant is open here, too, which has a buffet breakfast.

Brekky and Bikes at the Bend Motorsport Park Brekky and Bikes at The Bend.
Another top experience organised by Champion Ride Days in cooperation with The Bend Motorsport Park.
Thirty nine dollars gets you at least 10 laps at your own pace behind a pace bike on your machine of choice with just Helmet, Jacket, Jeans and boots as a minimum to experience this magnificent venue.
After the session of approximately 20 minutes you are treated to a Breakfast Buffet in the Apex Restaurant and then have the opportunity if you wish to register and take part in the remainder full on track day.
This is the sixth event I have done and it's more than enough for me to get my jollies
off the only downside is the trip home back to Adelaide on the Freeway seems so tame.
Highly recommended, the Bend is a top facility with friendly and accommodating staff, nothing seems too much trouble and the Team from Champions Ride day go about their operation in a safe, competent manor to maximum the enjoyment of all participants can't wait for the next one, if you are in Adelaide on your bike highly recommend you check out the next one.

Fantastic track, great facilities, very modern, great experience to go to the track and watch motorcycle racing. Car parking was ok but could be improved by more guided directions. But overall we parked in the grass paddock and walked to the track which was fine. Highly recommend you going to watch any motorsport that you like to watch.

Went here for the ASBK Championship on November 26/27 2022. Top class venue & awesome facilities for the Motorsport fraternity. Great public viewing points, great facilities & world class pit areas.
The entrance to the main area has some very nice Motorcycle & Vehicles.

Great service While food was good , the service was exceptional , which created a welcoming , fun atmosphere. Especially Nanette
