One Lap Wonder
Race For Good, Drive For Glory!
We’ve teamed up with The Big Kart Track to bring Sunshine Coast & Noosa residents One Lap Wonder a free community-powered karting showdown filmed at Australia’s largest commercial go-kart track in Landsborough.
One Lap Wonder is free to enter. Each contestant gets one timed lap, with their time recorded on the live leaderboard. At the end of the season, the top three drivers return for the Grand Final, where $5,000 is up for grabs.
And with SunnyKids charity on board, every driver who beats the benchmark lap time triggers a $100 donation.
Rules Of Competition
Welcome to One Lap Wonder, a Sunshine Coast community challenge with one simple rule: you only get one shot.
Enter for free, get randomly selected, and take on Australia’s largest commercial go-kart track at Big Kart Track, Landsborough.
Drivers are randomly selected. Each driver gets one timed lap, a place on the leaderboard — and if you finish the season in the top three, you’re back for the Grand Final, where the winner takes $5,000 cash and bragging rights for life.
