The event will also host the final round of the 2023 Motorsport Australia South Australia Rally Championship (SARC), while the South Australian Regularity Series will give rally enthusiasts the opportunity to enjoy the rally’s stages on a smaller budget.
Headlining the early entries are current championship leaders Lewis Bates and Anthony McLoughlin, who will be looking to hold off the in-form Harry Bates and Coral Taylor after back-to-back round wins in Queensland and Gippsland.
A number of ARC Cup contenders are also confirmed for the South Australian event, including 2WD Cup champions-elect for 2023, Ben and Cathy Hayes aboard their Subaru BRZ.
The duo may have already wrapped up the class honours, but will still compete for White Wolf Constructions ARC Production Cup glory, with current leaders Bodie Reading and Mark Young also confirmed to take part.
