The Route

The route is always meticulously planned to provide the best experience for competitors. Taking in the best roads Victoria has to offer, competitors will drive over 1000km and compete in around 70 – 80 Time Trials over 4 days.

The route also takes in as many opportunities for communities and spectators to enjoy the spectacle as possible. If you enjoy Classic Cars then you won’t want to miss seeing the field of vehicles that take part in this great event.
