Summer is coming to an end, but the number of themed outdoor events is still growing. Another weekend will once again offer us a wealth of emotions from watching or even participating in vibrant events and colorful shows. This time, we suggest stopping by the BMW fest, racing in time-attack races, visiting the VAG product enthusiasts festival, and much more. We tell you about all the most interesting things in the traditional Onlíner announcement.
Time-attack racing in Brest
More than 50 pilots in a wide variety of rare vehicles will meet on the track of the Alliance go-kart track: from prepared Japanese JDM classics and iconic BMW M to thoroughbred Porsche. The competition will unfold in five qualifying classes, formed depending on the power of the cars. Spectators will be treated to a two-discipline showdown: the Belarusian Championship—an official competition for the strongest trackday drivers and the owners of the country’s fastest cars—and the Race Wars Cup—a completely amateur and highly accessible series for everyone. You can even register here in a completely standard car straight from the everyday traffic, and the regulations strictly prohibit the use of sports tires.
The fifth international BMW car festival will be the headliner of the weekend. In addition to exclusive and rare cars, the organizers will offer visitors a variety of interactive activities, drift performances, a food court, photo zones, live music and other entertainment. Participants will hold competitions for the loudest exhaust, best wheels, most stylish tuning and more. Spectators will be able to vote for the best car of the festival.

Another event will be held at the DOSAAF sports complex near Minsk. This time, the fourth round of the Belarusian Road Racing Championship will take place on the race track.

Spectators will see races in several competitive classes—from amateur categories to top superbikes—where pilots balance on the edge of the laws of physics. This discipline is rightfully considered one of the most spectacular, because the racers put their motorcycles into turns all the way to the asphalt, literally erasing their knee sliders.
