Morning drifts
Morning Session Drift is the worst kept secret at Queensland Raceway. Offering a reprieve from the party atmosphere of Friday Night Drift, Morning Session offers drivers and spectators a more laid-back event, held at least once a month.
Compared to an FND, our start lines are moved back to provide a better run up for those experienced who are chasing a faster entry. Morning Session is open to regulars to improve & level up their skills, while also giving social drivers an opportunity to hit the track.
Good vibes are the order of the day and with two circuit layouts run simultaneously before switching to the drift-o-rama format (Sprint Circuit) for the final hour.
