Supercars has released the full on-track schedule for the upcoming Repco Bathurst 1000 on October 8-11.
The 66th running of The Great Race will commemorate Peter Brock on the 20th anniversary of his passing by having a collection of the nine-time winner’s Bathurst cars on display during the event.
In addition to this, an audiovisual experience celebrating Brock’s career will feature in the Bathurst town centre from Monday, October 5 and will remain in place throughout race week.
The Repco Fan Fest will commence on Tuesday ahead of the Track to Town on Wednesday featuring the Live Finals of the 2026 PIRTEK Pit Stop Challenge.
Also confirmed is a change in the start time to the Repco Bathurst 1000 in 2026, with it beginning 15-minutes earlier at 11:30am AEST.
It follows the build up consisting of six practice sessions, Friday Qualifying, the traditional Saturday evening Top 10 Shootout and Sunday pre-race warm up.
The Repco Bathurst 1000 doubles as the conclusion to the Ryco Sprint Cup and decides Finals qualification.
An impressive support cast will be at the Mountain led by Super2, Porsche Carrera Cup Australia, GR Cup, V8 SuperUtes and Touring Car Masters.
Live coverage of the Repco Bathurst 1000 will be broadcast on the Seven Network, 7plus, Kayo and Foxtel.
