2 Hour Race

The Adelaide 2 Hour Races
header-3hr-2

The Adelaide 2 Hour Races are a relay race for teams and have a Le Mans start where riders have to sprint across the track to get to their waiting bikes.  Over the next 2 hours,  teams will complete up to 260 Kms of the circuit only stopping to change riders. The race is also contested by Solo riders where the amount of time spent in pit lane can decide the winner of that category.

Once considered a reliability test for bikes, distance racing is now more a test of the riders endurance to stay focused and maintain lap times. In 2022 the race was changed from 3 Hours to 2 x 2 Hours, the first for lightweight bikes (<400cc) and the second for larger bikes (>400cc).

The 2 Hour race are on Sunday with practice sessions and support events in the morning.

Saturday is a full day of racing for all the usual Classes and most 2 Hour riders will compete as part of their preparation.
