About Symmons Plains Raceway
Symmons Plains International Raceway is located on Midland Highway some 30km south of Launceston. The track is known for several interesting features including its very long back straight with a kink, its extremely tight hairpin bend at the end of the front straight and the unusual placement of the original start/finish line and grid that was on a curve. Symmons Plains recently received a $3 million upgrade. The Raceway opened in 1960 and after the closure of the Longford road circuit quickly established its own reputation as Tasmania's home of touring car and championship motor racing. Catering facilities are open on the day.
