Scrutineering requirements can be found here: HERE

• Valid, current drivers licence
• Entrant tickets, ensuring the name on these tickets matches the driver licence
• Any PPE for competition
• The entrant vehicle, ready for judging and scrutineering

There is a zero tolerance for skids on the cruise route.

As of Summernats 37, vehicle swaps need to be completed 4 weeks prior to the first day of scrutineering. There will be no vehicle swaps completed at scrutineering.

All vehicle swaps need to meet the Scrutineering Minimum Requirements and will go through the same approval process.

All entrants must hold a current, unrestricted, unsuspended driver’s licence. We check these too, so be honest.

Learner drivers are not permitted to be entrants.

Drivers with provisional licenses are permitted to enter however, there are some restrictions in place.

Refer to the Summernats Entrant Terms and Conditions for further information.

City Cruise is on Thursday of Summernats and is a cruise for registered vehicles on Northbourne. Entrants can nominate for this on their application form.

Supercruise is a slower paced cruise on Saturday evening on the Main Arena. The Judging Team select Supercruise entrants at time of judging at the event.

All registered vehicles are welcome to nominate and there will be a small number of unregistered vehicles in the city cruise.

The City Cruise begins at Exhibition Park in Canberra, proceeds along Northbourne Avenue and then turns at the end of Northbourne continuing down the other side of the road, finishing back at Exhibition Park in Canberra.

Drifting is an exhibition only, run by Drift Cadet.

Entrants will be emailed directly on this process closer to the event.

Summernats is only availble for vehicle entries.

18 plus to be a passenger in a burnout vehicle (exempt if you are an entrant yourself) (This is as you will have already signed a parental permission slip)

Vehicles running slicks are unable to cruise and will be issued a No Cruising Sticker at scrutineering.

We do not have a specific area for entrants to leave their cars overnight. You can however leave your car on your campsite (if you have one) at your own risk.

If you do not have a campsite, we highly suggest taking the vehicle back to your accommodation (on a trailer, if it’s not registered).

The event ticket gets you into the event – you just need to find an entrant that will take you for a cruise! No need for any additional or different tickets.
