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
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
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.

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.


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
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 🏎️💨😎🤙🏻
And don't get me started on the car collection in the foyer.
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.
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


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!




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!

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.


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!


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


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.

The entrance to the main area has some very nice Motorcycle & Vehicles.


The hotel there, Ridges, looked great so will stay there soon.
The reception for the track was manned by a blonde girl who was a subject matter expert on the place. She even had a glint in her eye when describing the circuit where you could see her passion.
I want to do a bike track day there as a result. Need my ankle fixed and ship my tracking down here to get the Bend E experience.
The OTR owner who set this place up is a genius.
Be sure to check the cars out in the lobby.



Great experience racing and the staff and training experience is brilliant real buzz





Definitely recommend it despite the drive. But I don't mind.



Exotic and classic car collection in the lobby, accommodation, food and drink on site, track/lap experiences, race your own car, watch the professionals, watch the amateurs, have a go in a go kart, experience off road driving, or rally, or . . .

It was over too quickly, but highly recommended if you know a petrol head, or anyone who enjoys a drive. Options are available for you to drive the car yourself.....maybe next time.
A very cool display of some very expensive cars...
No matter what your budget I. Sure you can enjoy something here.
We had food and it was sensational. Some Veggie options and some healthy option were great to see.
Don’t forget to take the Lift to the top floor for the viewing platform.
