BMWDCM have been invited to compete again at Challenge Bathurst 2024.
Please read to the bottom as this notice contains important information
Challenge Bathurst is an invitation-only regularity event and we are very lucky to be invited to join in again for 2024. This is a fantastic opportunity to tick off one of your bucket list items and drive on one of the best circuits in the world. You only need a level 2 or above Motorsport Australia licence, you don't need to have a fully prepared race car - any vehicle that you use at a normal sprint day will be eligible as long as it is a BMW and passes scrutineering.
This year we have been offered 55 spots at a cost of $2000 per entrant. Your spot will only be secured once full payment has been received.
All paperwork will need to be returned completed too.
We will have 9 pit lane garages for all competing.
Once we have made the full payment to Challenge Bathurst, all refunds and cancellations are subject to Challenge Bathurst's cancellation policy.
What is a Regularity ?
A regularity is a timed competition event, where you nominate a lap time which you need to try to match each lap. This is not racing door to door, but allows you to drive at a pace that is comfortable for you and your car.
We will also need to supply 10 flag marshalls to help on the Thursday and Friday.
Please watch this video. Volunteers register here.
We need your help, so please ask your fellow club members to come along and help out. Arrive early and volunteer as a flag marshal and help those who normally help you drive. Please remember without volunteers you cannot have fun on the track, so this is your way of giving back. All volunteers will be offered free camping or accommodation at the Uni.
Register here to volunteer for specific days.
Any drivers volunteering on the Thursday and Friday will be able to go through scrutineering on Wednesday.
Team merchandise will also be available to order through this link.
There will be no stock at the track; orders will be all done via pre-ordering. All drivers will be required to wear team merchandise.
This is available to all current members of all invited BMW Affiliated clubs.
Not a BMW Club member? Easy, join here.
You will need to find your own accommodation and transportation to get there.
Full payment will be required on registration.
Full details will be sent out on the running of the event in July with further paperwork.
ALL paperwork needs to be completed or you will be deemed as not entered and you will miss your spot.
We will need volunteers to help run the team. If you are able to volunteer, or have someone in your family prepared to help, please register for that here.
Please review the short YouTube video here, which may help you with your booking.
Full Entry forms are not yet available. We will send all the necessary paper work out as soon as we receive them.
