The 2026 Yamaha Aussie Flat Track Nationals calendar is locked in with six classes all vying for national titles including the prestigious Pro 450 crown to be decided over a grueling 29 races across seven rounds.
Pro Women return as a support class this season as well as Junior Lites, Junior 85 and Pro Twins, while the biggest change to the format in 2026 is the addition of the Over 35s support class. The program change allows for a clear path of progression for younger riders coming through the ranks from Junior Lites to Pro 450 (b) and Pro 450 based on their true speed.
The new venues added last year will all return for 2026, with the season launching over the weekend of July 25-26 in Maryborough (Queensland). Competitors will race over two days on both the flat track and TT layouts.
The next stop is Wodonga (Victoria) over August 29-30 with the same flat track and TT layout mix.
Griffith (NSW) also returns under lights following huge success last season with bumper crowds for the ultimate test of race fitness on October 10, where competitors will race both the flat and TT tracks on the same day.
Balcary Park at Gunnedah (NSW) delivers on high drama and will once again host the season finale on November 7-8, where the Pro 450 champion will claim the $5000 gold and diamond Bunda Fine Jewels Championship Ring.
“We’re very excited to officially announce our 2026 dates for the Yamaha Aussie Flat Track Nationals series,” said Series Organiser, David Maddock. “Last year, we continued taking national level flat track to the regions.
“Maryborough, Wodonga and Griffith were very well received by locals as well as our finale at Gunnedah. Having both flat track and the TT course on the opening day at Griffith was a huge challenge for our riders but it turned into a great party in the evening with an electric atmosphere.
“We can’t wait to bring you the best flat track racing in Australia again in 2026!”
