The schedule for the 204 Repco Bathurst 12 Hour has been locked in with a bumper four days making up the highly anticipated event.
Some of the biggest names in Australian and international motorsport will venture out to the famous Mount Panorama for Australia’s most notable international enduro, which takes place in its now traditional time slot at 5:45am on Sunday 18 February.
While the race will be held on the Sunday, there will be plenty of track action in the lead up to the main event, with four 40-minute practice sessions on the Friday and two one-hour practice sessions on the Saturday morning setting up a two-part qualifying session in the early afternoon.
The top 10 will then complete a special shootout later in the day, where the fastest driver will claim the iconic Allan Simonsen Pole Award.
Outside of the 12 Hour track action, fans will also get multiple opportunities to meet their favourite drivers from the stacked grid, headlined by the great Valentino Rossi and Australians stars Craig Lowndes, Jamie Whincup, Chaz Mostert and Cam Waters.
The first occasion will be during the iconic Track to Town parade on the Thursday where the full 12-Hour field will travel in convoy from the circuit to Russell Street and park up for a signing session from 1pm AEDT.
Fans will also get the chance to meet every driver again on the Saturday ahead of the top 10 shootout for a free all-driver autograph session in the paddock area.
In addition to the headline endurance act, the race weekend will also welcome the Duggan Family Hotels Combined Sedans and Group S Historic Sports Cars as support categories, while Sports Car legend Roman Dumas will drive the iconic Ford SuperVan for demonstration laps on Friday and Saturday.
The event is the first half of a bigger Bathurst SuperFest, which will see the Repco Supercars Championship take over the mountain in the week following the 12 Hour for the Thrifty Bathurst 500.
Tickets and camping options are still available for purchase via Ticketek, while live coverage of both the Repco Bathurst 12 Hour and Thrifty Bathurst 500 will be available on both the Seven Network and Fox Sports.
The 2024 Repco Bathurst 12 Hour takes place at Mount Panorama on 15-18 February.
