With 20 fast and furious heats, including one exciting feature night on Wednesday, May 24, you won't want to miss a moment of the action at the Redcliffe Harness Racing Club.

This unique series is raced over the 947-metre distance, making it one of the shortest races in the world. And with a $10,000 cash bonus and an Otto Tuza 3 horse float up for grabs for the quickest lap across the 20 heats, the stakes have never been higher!

This year's series will feature drone and home turn vision, DriverCam, Caller2Driver audio, the Driver draft, all available on SKY 2 coverage via Foxtel, along with standard coverage on SKY 1.

The Trot Rods series is known for its innovative broadcast enhancements; this year is no exception. New enhancements include the addition of telemetry to live driver cam footage and a time-to-beat chicklet to the virtual track positioning graphic displayed live on Sky Racing.
