About Swan Hill Dragway

Swan Hill Dragway is a quarter-mile drag strip at the Chisholm Reserve motorsport complex on the Sea Lake–Swan Hill Road, where the dragway sits alongside a speedway oval and a go-kart circuit — so there's often more than one thing going on across a single site. The strip is run by a volunteer-based club and is ANDRA-sanctioned, and at Test'n'Tune events members of the public can bring their own road car and make passes down the strip themselves. It has hosted full-on nitro shows including Outlaw Nitro Funny Cars in front of big crowds, and a spectator mound gives fans a great close-up view of the action. Reasonable ticket prices and a lively event atmosphere make it a solid family day out for motorsport fans across the Murray–Mallee region.
