Wakefield Park, motor racing circuit near Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia

Wakefield Park is a motorsport racing track located in the countryside of New South Wales between Sydney and Canberra, designed for cars and motorcycles. The circuit features 13 turns and straight sections that can be raced in either direction, allowing for diverse racing configurations.

John Carter and Paul Samuels turned the first sod in mid-October 1993 and held the first meeting on 8 May 1994, on land and works costing $1.2 million. The circuit closed in August 2022 after a legal battle cut its operating days to 30 a year. Steve Shelley bought it in June 2023 and reopened it in May 2024 as One Raceway.

Wakefield Park draws racers and motorsport enthusiasts who come to develop their driving skills and compete in organized events. The venue has become a gathering place for both professional and amateur drivers looking to test themselves on the track.

The circuit sits on Braidwood Road, 10 km south of Goulburn on 130 acres of cleared land, about two hours' drive from Sydney and one hour from Canberra. Ripple strips, tyre walls and gravel traps line the track, and a hill climb plus short circuit variations are also available. Commercial thrill rides run for visitors, and the venue operates under CAMS, AASA and NSW Department of Sport and Recreation permits.

The circuit's buildings were designed by founders John Carter and Paul Samuels in Castrol colours, honouring Charles Wakefield, the oil company's founder. Castrol later withdrew its sponsorship, judging it poor value. The track's reverse layout is called the Shelley loop, after owner Steve Shelley, who led its first event in January 2025 in his Porsche cup car.
