March 28-29, Lang-Lang
We are excited to announce that we will again be returning to the Vinfast test facility at Lang-Lang over the weekend of 28 and 29th of March, 2026.
Member Tim Corbett has again taken on the financial risk for the event to sponsor these attempts:
- 2x athletes to attempt endurance HPV records (12hr, 1000km, 24hr), and
- 3 athletes to attempt shorter duration record attempts (4000m, 1hr (x2) and 100mile.
- ~4 other members have also confirmed for shorter records on the Sunday.
Vinfast have allowed for a sightly expanded attendance list this year, so there are still opportunities available at the event for motivated members.
In addition to 1hr/12hr/1000km/24hr distances, we will be surveying a 4000m course to set marks over this prestigious distance.
Time permitting, F200 runs may also be a possibility. WHPVA/IHPVA sanctioning of F200 and 4000m TBC.
There are opportunities to attend the event as follows:
- to act as an OzHPV official for the various attempts, (~2 openings)
- as support crew for the Phantom Team or other entrants (#’s TBC), or,
- make your own record attempt/s.
Places will be confirmed during application on first come, first served basis that optimizes for overall headcount and event compatibility.
Due to the limited number of people allowed on site, there are no opportunities to attend as a spectator, with all attendees expected to make a positive contribution to the event.
Critical support crew and OzHPV officials need only be regular members of OzHPV.
POA for record attempts.
Due to the significant cost (and opportunity!) of hiring the venue, attempt costs are non-trivial, and start at ~$1000 for short duration attempts.
50% deposit required to confirm your place.
Please get in contact with me (Tim) if you would like to attend.
Notice of the event will go out to the broader community via the OzHPV FB group in 2 weeks on ~Feb 14th to allow OzHPV members first opportunity to attend, compete, officiate or act in supporting roles.
