Course Description
 
From the get go, Toowoomba is a very fast and open track requiring a lot of skill to master. 
The track starts with an open sprint into the first set of open corners ending in a tight right left 
finishing with a small log drop. From here the track leads into the notorious concrete shoot. 
After this shoot the track opens up and runs along the side of the hill for a fast section into a 
technical left hand corner. The track then continues into a very tight 180 degree right hand corner
which can easily be overrun. The shoot comes next with a couple of open rocky corners 
where line selection can pick up valuable time. 
 
After the shoot the track opens up into a non-technical flatter section over a grassy knoll. 
From here the track leads into a couple of tighter corners before opening up into a fast rocky 
section leading into the biggest gap on the track. There is another shoot which sends the 
riders into the 25ft gap which always attracts a number of spectators. After this gap the track 
opens into the fastest point where riders can easily reach 60km/hr and runs into the tightest 
section on the track. 
 
This section comprises of a couple of quick open corners before quickly leading into a frenzy 
of tight corners where more valuable seconds can be lost or gained. From these corners the 
track continues into the sections which draw the biggest crowds. The rock garden is a knarly 
section which has a number of drops that have to be navigated. The track then leads into 
Jared’s kicker which sends riders floating through the air as far as they are willing to go with 
a continuous down ramp. 
 
After landing from this jump, the track continues over a small creek crossing and through 
another smaller rock garden followed by a fast right hand corner. From here to the bottom of 
the track, it is relatively easy going with a few small chutes and drops. The track finishes with 
a gap with a size of about 20ft with a small sprint to the finish line which is a great spectacle 
to people who are at the end of the track. 
 
Unofficial Saturday Practice is available until 4pm. There is no event facilities, first aid, 
toilets etc. on the Saturday.
