WHAT IS APEX LEAGUE?
APEX League is series of motor racing events designed around you! Motorsport is a time-consuming passion and for many
racing drivers, combining this passion with business and family life often proves to be a challenge. APEX League at The Bend is the solution. One-day events, taking place during the work week, making racing possible in a time-efficient manner, all while keeping the weekend free to enjoy time with family and friends.
​
Each event features a 90-minute Open Pitlane track session, one 25-minute qualifying session and two 25-minute races – all on one day of maximized on-track action. The combined track time of 165 minutes is paired with The Bend’s award-winning hospitality, ensuring a luxurious and stress-free environment for relaxing and networking between track sessions.
​
ELIGIBILITY
APEX League is exclusive to non-professional racers and those looking to make the step up from Track Day activities to fully-fledged competition. Three distinct classes in Trophy, Cup and Challenge permit the use of GT3, GT4 and single-make series vehicles from several manufacturers and generations. Classes feature their own point score, with trophies awarded to the top-3 from each.
Home to ultra-high performance GT cars, APEX Trophy features GT3 cars racing head-to-head with the latest generation of GT2 machines and MARC II vehicles.

Other vehicles may be approved upon application.

EVENT ENTRY
The Bend invites you to join us in Australia’s premier GT Sportscar league, created exclusively for amateur racers, where you will compete head-to-head with ‘AM’ competitors of similar skill levels in various classes, including previous generation GT3, GT4, ex-Carrera Cup, Trofeo, World Challenge, and other ‘Grand Touring’ style vehicles.
The absence of a control tire, along with wide-ranging vehicle eligibility and a multi-class structure, ensures close racing throughout the field. The Bend’s expert race control team and professional driving standards advisor will ensure fair play on the racetrack while helping you develop as a driver.
