Jim Richards would have to be one of the nicest people that I have ever met to share time with him was an honour.

I had never been around a race track before and didn't know what to expect. The ride was absolutely awesome and you won't meet a nicer person than Jim Richards. I wished the day could have gone longer. Steve E.

More Information

Affectionately known in the Motorsport industry as "Gentleman Jim" he is a truly amazing man with an attitude and racing skills that set him apart from any other racing driver in Australia today.

Jim Richards is a "self confessed, average sort of bloke who became a king of Australian touring car racing. Unimpressed and unwanting of the fame and glory, he won the crown uncomfortably, but wore it nevertheless. Not for himself, but for his team and for the many people who helped him along the way". (From "The Jim Richards Story" by Barry Naismith).

Please note that Jim may bring along one of his collection of race-prepared Porsches to complete the Hot Laps.

Spectators are welcome at $70 per person, which includes access to the circuit, insurance and lunch with Jim.
