Om Winton Motor Raceway:
Winton Motor Raceway is a motor racing track in Winton, near Benalla, Victoria, Australia.
The Benalla Auto Club began planning for a permanent racing track around 1958. In 1960 it was decided to build the track at Winton Recreation Reserve and was completed in twelve months. The circuit hosted its first race meeting on 26 November 1961.[1] The circuit length was extended prior to the 1997 round of the V8 Supercar championship and the upgrade included a new pit complex.
Racing at Winton Motor Raceway is always exciting and close because the circuit has a combination of long fast straights and twisty and tight bends. It is also known as "The Australia's Action Track".
The original circuit (now called the Winton Club Circuit) is 2.03 km in length and comprises 11 turns. The circuit was lengthened to 3.0 km with the cars turning left prior to the esses and a series of right hand turns added before the extension rejoins the original track at the esses. The long circuit is called the Winton National Circuit.
The track is currently used as a round in the V8 Supercar series, hosting the Winton 360. The track is one of the more popular tracks in the series with spectators, especially those who live in the area. Easy access to the track and the fantastic viewing from one of the many areas around the track makes it very popular.[citation needed] It attracts some of the biggest crowds of any of the permanent race tracks in the series.
