What is Sydney MasterBlast?
The annual Muscle Car Masters event at Sydney Motorsport Park has been rejuvenated and rebranded in 2019 as the Paynter Dixon Sydney MasterBlast featuring the Muscle Car Masters™.
The Muscle Car Masters celebrates our great Australian racing heritage; the glory days of Bathurst and the cars that took on The Mountain. But times still change, and we have changed with it, offering the same awesome cars and categories with some new metal – both two and four wheels – thrown in. We have finally returned to Father’s Day Weekend, and have added a fantastic morning event for Dad and the family to the final Sunday racing schedule, called MasterCruise!
Night Racing under lights Saturday!
The Saturday Night (August 31) will see racing under lights for TCM, Group N, Group C and A, and Production Touring! These categories will race on the North Circuit, ensuring fast laps, plenty of action, and big dives under brakes into T1, arguably the fastest corner on a permanent circuit in Australia!
If you can only make the night racing, it costs just $15 at the gate only, after 5pm.
Father’s Day Laps for Dad (and all the family and friends!)
Give Dad the ultimate Father’s Day gift with laps around Sydney Motorsport Park! Our MasterCruise VIP event gives Dad and the whole family the chance to cruise SMSP’s Gardner GP Circuit on the morning of Sydney MasterBlast’s Sunday finale!
Entry is $100 per car. That’s right, you can bring friends and family in for the ride – as many people as you can legally belt up in your car – then stay for the Sunday finale! #vanswin. However, please note restrictions and requirements HERE. Breakfast and coffee will be on hand to help with the early start, and camping onsite and accommodation nearby is also available.
Give a gift that Dad will remember!
The Australian Muscle Car Masters
The Muscle Car Masters celebrates our country’s Muscle Car heritage and the drivers who raced them – and continue to race them! is a race down memory lane for those that grew up spending the October long weekend viewing the Great Race on TV or spectating trackside on Mount Panorama.

Spectators are admitted free of charge to the competitor’s paddock and undercover grandstand as part of the GA ticket; and remember in 2019, kids under 18 are free!
