BEER Event (Budget Extreme Endurance Race) @ Collie Motorplex
Oct 18 all-day

Get ready to go racing WA! Budget Extreme Endurance Racing (BEER) is coming to Collie Motorplex.
Two full days of racing for you to live out Champagne Racing for Beer money.
The event starts on Friday afternoon, where you’ll get to see a battle between the Beerians on the Collie Motorplex Track. It will be sure to test the driver’s handling and skills over power and brute force. Racing continues through Saturday where you’ll really be able to crack the top off your cold one and see what the drivers are capable of.
Penalties on track will see drivers face The Punisher for judgement. Once their fate is decided, it’s off to The Ring Master to face your fate with a range of humiliating activities. After the racing is done, there will be awards and then the after party will kick off at Colliewood, with fun, frivolity and food.
Of course BEERS Entry is open to all budget vehicles with a value of $1985 and less that meet all safety requirements. Regulations will be released shortly. All “LeMons” vehicles will be accepted and put in “The Slops” category. Cars deemed to be worth or modified over the limit will be put in the “Top Shelf” category. Both categories will race together.
So get ready for a Frothy Friday and a Slaughtered Saturday and come race with us!!
July’s event is a 12 Hour Race.
October’s event is a 24 Hour Race.
