Welcome to Black Rock: Where Motorsport Meets Five-Star Living
Australia has officially entered the fast lane of global luxury motoring experiences with the launch of Black Rock Motor Resort - a $250 million development that’s transforming Lake Macquarie (NSW) into the country’s first luxury motorsport lifestyle destination.
If your clients are prestige car owners, motorsport lovers, or lifestyle-driven collectors, this is a name they’ll want to know.
A Circuit Built for Enthusiasts - Not Spectators
Designed by renowned Formula 1 track architect Hermann Tilke, Black Rock’s main attraction is a 5.4-kilometre racing circuit packed with:
- 23 high-speed turns, 165 metres of elevation change, An 800-metre straight and Full FIA Grade 2 accreditation (just one step below F1-spec).
The track promises an elite driving experience - from casual hot laps to full-throttle track days. It’s the first of its kind in Australia, blending motorsport-grade performance with private, members-only access.
Where Luxury Living Meets Adrenaline
This isn’t just a track—it’s a luxury resort built for car lovers with membership by application only, designed to foster a close-knit community of like-minded automotive connoisseurs.
- Featuring 64 architecturally designed villas (each with its own 100m² climate-controlled garage), boutique hotel with facilities including infinity pool, spa, gym, and fine dining with panoramic circuit views, member lounges, concierge services and private event spaces
Whether your client is tracking a McLaren 720S or sipping espresso after a morning session, Black Rock delivers a complete automotive lifestyle experience.
From Coal Mine to Car Haven
Located in Wakefield, Lake Macquarie, the resort is being built on the site of the former Rhondda Colliery, a disused coal mine. What was once industrial land is now being reinvented as Australia’s answer to exclusive motoring clubs in Europe, like Ascari (Spain) and in the United States, like The Thermal Club (California).
Construction began in early 2024, with the first phase - including the North Circuit, karting track, and members’ lodge - set to open in mid-2026.
