MASTER THE TRACK. CONQUER THE DUNE. BECOME A LEGEND.
The World’s First Dual Terrain, 24 Hour Racing Revolution
Track & Dune is the first event of its kind. A dual terrain, dual vehicle, 24 hour endurance challenge that brings together speed, stamina and spectacle across two extreme environments. Half of the race unfolds on precision tarmac. The other half pushes deep into the desert. From day to night, and from asphalt to sand, drivers face fatigue, terrain and the limits of their own endurance.
​
Created for teams, camaraderie and controlled adrenaline, Track & Dune sets a new benchmark for endurance events. It is immersive, demanding and designed with both excitement and safety in mind.
