Sydney International Speedway, known as Sydney II as its successor to the original circuit, is a dirt track racing venue held near the shutdown area of Sydney Dragway in Eastern Creek. Like the original, it is about 500m (0.311 miles) in length (489m at the lowest line, 511m near the wall).
The name "Sydney II" differentiates it from the former Sydney Speedway (known commercially as Valvoline Raceway and formerly as Parramatta Speedway, and often referenced as Sydney Speedway I to differentiate with its successor) on the site of the Granville Showgrounds in Sydney, marking the second consecutive round with Supercars paired with sprint car racing.
