Queensland Raceway Clubman CW
Queensland Raceway Clubman CW Notes:
The Queensland Raceway is a motorsports facility located 40 km (24 miles) inland from Brisbane, in Queensland, Australia. Its layout is straightforward with only six corners and long straight segments between them and is nicknamed "The Paperclip" because of its disposition in the field. The terrain is relatively flat compared with other Australian road courses, favoring overtaking spots over elevation change. The track's visibility is optimal year-round, with clear skies and an even distribution of rainfall among seasons. Summers are warm, and winters are cool with pleasant temperatures for racing anytime.
Races Start/Finish at the Dick Johnson Straight, named after a local racecar driver involved in the development of Queensland Raceway in 1999. Turns number one and two are a combination of right-handers closing the southern portion of the track. Corner number three, the Dipper, is a sudden elevation change followed by the 90-degree turn number four in the Clubman configuration. The last segment of Queensland raceway goes north and turns at six, taking the Dick Johnson Straight and starting another exciting lap.
Clubman CW Notes:
The Clubman Clockwise configuration at Queensland Raceway delivers a specific club-level layout running clockwise at this Brisbane-area facility in Willowbank, Queensland. The Clubman designation indicates an intermediate-challenge configuration including the Dipper elevation feature while bypassing certain extended sections like the crossover and Turn 3. This variant serves club racing and track day events requiring moderate technical challenge appropriate for developing drivers building skills.
Operating the Clubman clockwise showcases Queensland Raceway's role as Brisbane's accessible motorsport venue where multiple configurations serve varied skill levels. The Clubman layout creates 1:02 average lap times at 75 mph, providing balanced challenge for club racers progressing beyond novice layouts but not yet ready for the full circuit's extended distance. Queensland's subtropical climate creates year-round racing potential though summer heat pushes track temperatures above 40C. The Clubman CW configuration serves Southeast Queensland's motorsport community with appropriate stepping-stone layout between entry-level and advanced circuit options.
