Full speed ahead for Red CentreNATS this weekend

Northern Territory Major Events Company

Alice Springs is gearing up for the Red CentreNATS, which kicks off today with the action-packed Burnout Competition and Burnout Masters Qualifying at Alice Springs Inland Dragway.

More than 700 entrants are preparing for Australia’s ultimate festival of wheels, which will roll on through to Father’s Day with a program jammed with drag racing (including the Heavy Hitters, Street and Pro), grass driving, show ‘n’ shine, 4WD-ing, show cars, motorkhana and more.

Top of the list for many fans and entrants is the street cruising and street parade, which sees some incredible rigs driving around the CBD. This includes modified rides that receive a special permit to take part. Get your camera ready, as you don’t see this every day.

The weekend wraps up on Sunday with more motorsports action, plus the official after party at the Juicy Rump in Lasseters Hotel Casino instead of the traditional podium party.
