The event featured eight categories with many of the champions decided and also unveiled news regarding 2026.
The feature TFH TA2 Muscle Cars Series presented by Maritimo category had already been decided and went to Jarrod Hughes while the final round confirmed Ben Gomersall and Josh Thomas as outright second and third.
Kobi Williams won the Formula Fords Stars & Renegades while Aiden Williams became the Legend Car Australia Champion. The Hyper Racers Australian Drivers’ Championship was decided after the first race in favour of Damon Sterling who then went onto win the remaining three.
Lindsay Kearns was all set to win the APC Endurance Championship until his engine expired in the two-hour, 20 minutes from the end. That paved the way for fellow Ford Mustang driver Trent Whyte, driving on his own, to take the title.
