Bushy Park, Barbados

Bushy Park Plantation in the Parish of St. Phillip, Barbados is home to the Bushy Park race track, which features a 2.2 km FIA grade 3 course and a 1.2 km CIK grade 1 course. The original race track was built in 1971 by sugar cane plantation workers. The track was refurbished and reopened in 2014 with the inaugural event being the Top Gear Festival featuring the Global RallyCross Championship. Later in the same year it hosted the 2014 Race of Champions.[1] The Global RallyCross Championship returned in 2015 for a double-header event. Bushy Park has also been used as a stage for Sol Rally Barbados.

The track currently hosts karting, circuit racing and drag racing.
