Frank Track

Frank Track delivers a technical challenge that'll test your vehicle's articulation and driver skill in equal measure. Despite its compact 1.1 km length, you'll encounter demanding terrain that demands respect and precision—this is why it's earned its Hard rating among the Newtracs community. The track winds through the rugged landscape near Kalimna West, presenting rocky sections and uneven ground that require careful line selection and steady throttle control.

You'll appreciate the variety this short route packs in: tight turns demand excellent spatial awareness, while the challenging surface requires your 4WD's suspension to work hard. The scenery reveals the raw beauty of western Victoria's terrain, with native vegetation framing your route. While there's no extreme gradient to navigate, the technical nature of the ground itself is what makes Frank Track formidable—loose rocks, ruts, and uneven surfaces mean you'll need to stay alert throughout.

Before tackling Frank Track, ensure your vehicle is in top mechanical condition with good tyre grip and responsive steering. The short duration (around 6 minutes of driving time) belies the concentration required, so take your time and choose your line carefully. With only three vehicles logged on Newtracs so far, you'll be joining a small group of experienced 4WD enthusiasts who've conquered this gem. Come prepared for a genuine technical test.
