Victorians will be treated to an action-packed, high-octane weekend of racing as the Winton Festival of Speed makes its way to Winton Motor Raceway this weekend.  

Hosted by the Victorian Historic Racing Register, the event is a celebration of both classic and modern racing cars with resounding tributes to a large variety of historic automobiles on and off the track.  

The weekend will see seven exciting categories compete across three days, starting with practice sessions on Friday, before the racing dominates most of Saturday and Sunday’s busy schedule .

There will be a little something for all car enthusiasts planning on making the trip to the northern countryside of Victoria – with vehicles ranging from HQ Racing, MG Racing, Alfa Racing, C & A Touring Cars, Group S Sports Cars, Formula Vee and Formula Ford as well as a handful of invited classes all scheduled to take the track.

Headlining the weekend's action will be the 50-kilometre Historic Touring Car race, while the Classic Sports Car feature race will also take place on Sunday in an unmissable weekend of racing. 

Not only that, but more than 500 cars will be on display over the course of the three days, giving plenty of opportunities for motorsport lovers to not only get an up-close look glimpse of the cars, but engage with the cars' owners themselves.  

In addition to that, there will also be a grand parade on both Saturday and Sunday where attending fans will get to witness an incredible display of classic cars driving side-by-side.

For those interested in showcasing their own collectable or wanting to take the track, you can still enter the event here.  

There will be plenty of onsite parking options with a cafe trackside and several trade stands including, Shannons Insurance.
