Get ready for an adrenaline-fueled night at Friday Night Drifts, where some of Queensland’s best drivers showcase their skills with clouds of tyre smoke and the roar of engines. This event is perfect for seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike, offering everyone the chance to get behind the wheel and put their driving to the test.
Held once a month, Queensland Raceway is the ultimate spot for Friday night action. With plenty of track time available, drivers can run solo or with a buddy, lining up as many times as they like. The event features the Drift Playground, specially designed for amateur drivers without a drift qualification, while experienced drifters can take on the main track for more challenging runs.
Spectators will enjoy an evening packed with non-stop excitement, while drivers will experience the thrill of drifting in a safe and supportive environment.

Morning Drift Sessions are perfect for those who enjoy a more laid-back atmosphere while still embracing the excitement of drifting. Held about once a month, these sessions are designed for experienced drivers looking to refine their skills and push their limits.
To elevate the experience, start lines are extended, providing drivers with a better run-up and allowing for faster entries. The event features two different circuit layouts running simultaneously, ensuring diverse practice opportunities and continuous action.
Good vibes are the essence of the day, making it an enjoyable event for both drivers and spectators alike. To participate in a Morning Drift Session, drivers must be qualified as experienced by Queensland Raceway. If you’re new to drifting and want to test your skills on the main track, obtaining a Drift Qualification is required. You can achieve this through one of our dedicated qualification programs.
