1999 Adelaide 500

February 2021 April 2011 South Australia 1999 Sensational Adelaide 500 2 13 1999 SCS Adelaide (short route).svg 9–11 April Adelaide, South Australia Adelaide Street Circuit Fine 156 500 Jason Bright Stone Brothers Racing 1:25.2366 Craig Lowndes Holden Racing Team 25:35:23.0240 Craig Lowndes Holden Racing Team 300 Greg Murphy Gibson Motorsport 268 Russell Ingall Perkins Engineering 244 The 1999 Sensational Adelaide 500 was the first running of the Adelaide 500 race, the first motor racing meeting held on the Adelaide Street Circuit since the 1995 Australian Grand Prix. Despite racing at the Mount Panorama Circuit notwithstanding, it was the first domestic racing meeting held on public roads since the closure of the Longford Circuit in Tasmania in the 1960s. Format Racing was held from Friday 9 April until Sunday 11 April 1999. The race was held for V8 Supercars and was Round 2 of the 1999 Shell Championship Series. The format, unique to V8 Supercar and loosely similar to the Pukekohe 500 format, consisted of two 250 km races. The original format called for the two races to form a single race, separated by an overnight rest at half distance, however with several significant competitors retiring from the first leg a change to the regulations was announced on the Saturday evening, allowing retired cars to be repaired and restarted for Sunday's Leg 2.
