Schedule confirmed for Supercheap Auto Bathurst International

A super three-day schedule for the 2024 Supercheap Auto Bathurst International has been locked in place.

The bumper three-day program will provide an apt send off for both the 8-10 November event, which will be staged for the final time this year, and the Shannons SpeedSeries in what will be the final round in its current form.

The event doubles as the title decider for several key national categories with five champions to be crowned on Sunday 10 November.

As is tradition with Shannons SpeedSeries events, the program features a weekend of on-track activity, with a huge array of categories racing from morning to late afternoon on each day.

Following a busy day of practice and qualifying on Friday 8 November, racing bursts into life on Saturday afternoon following a 7:15am on-track start time.

The Trico Trans Am Series will race twice in a packed afternoon, the Ford-versus-Chevrolet Muscle Car battle staging a pair of 40-minute races in what is the penultimate round of their series.

The Saturday afternoon also includes one-hour races for Monochrome GT4 and Fanatec GT World Challenge Australia, sprint races for Supercheap Auto TCR Australia and Precision National Sports Sedans and a 30-minute dash for Meguiar’s Australian Production Cars.

The final day commences at 8:40am and will feature a major ‘Championship Sunday’ vibe – five national categories to decide their 2024 champions on the Sunday.

The event will conclude with a series of five potentially championship-defining races, commencing with the First Focus Radical Cup Australia finale at 12:50.

That will be followed by the final race in a pulsating Supercheap Auto TCR Australia Series at 14:10, preceded by a grid walk.

The last race in the 2024 Fanatec GT World Challenge Australia Series starts at 2:55pm and will be battled out over an hour, before the fire-breathing Precision National Sports Sedans decide their winners at 4:05pm.

The final race will see an hour of Monochrome GT4 Australia action and a final, 30-minute Meguiar’s Australian Production Cars encounter to complete the weekend.

Action will be broadcast live and free on the screens of Seven across Saturday and Sunday at Mount Panorama, with a full broadcast schedule to be confirmed closer to the event.

Tickets are available online at the Bathurst International website now, with a three-day adult pass just $60.

VIP packages are also available while camping in the Paddock campground remains on sale.

All residents living in the Bathurst 2795 postcode will have free access on Friday 8 November while all ticket holders have access to the grandstand, pit roof and garage rooftop areas.
