Keep Summernats Safe
ACT Police and WorkSafe have made it clear that we all need to keep our cool on the cruise route, as we always do.
If you muck up on the cruise route, you may be removed from the event and you could be the one responsible for shutting the show shut down, for a day or even permanently.
Rip a skid at Skid Row. Do burnouts on the Burnout Pad. Cruise on the cruise route. Always wear your seatbelt.
It's that simple. Don't be that person.
BUROUT PAD IS FOR BURNOUTS
SKID ROW IS FOR SKIDS
CRUISE ROUTE IS FOR CRUISING

Entrant Parking Passes
There are three types of vehicle passes available at Summernats 38:
P1 ADDITIONAL ENTRANT PARKING
Additional parking is available exclusively for entrants at P1, located outside Gate 7. Parking passes can be purchased at scrutineering, subject to availability, and are limited to one per entrant. This pass does not apply to your entered vehicle. Entrants with unregistered vehicles may exit via Gate 9 to access their additional parking at P1.
ONSITE CAMPSITE VEHICLE PASS
If you wish to park on your campsite, you must purchase an Onsite Campsite Vehicle Pass when booking your camping. Once parked, your vehicle must remain onsite until Sunday afternoon. If it is removed earlier, you will need to park in the P1 Car Park at an additional cost.
COMPETITION SUPPORT VEHICLE
Competition Support Vehicle passes are available only to entrants competing in the Pro Burnout Series Grand Final and Burnout Wildcard. Eligible entrants will be advised on how to purchase this pass.
TRAILER PARKING
Trailer parking is available as usual at Summernats 38 outside Gate 7. It is free for trailers only. If you are parking a vehicle with your trailer, you must purchase a P1 Parking Pass.
