This site has two histories. See (visit link)
A little bit of info in case you cannot visit the link:
The Queensland Main Roads Commission commenced building the new airfield in September 1941 for a total approximate expenditure of £149,274. Clearing, grubbing, and grading provided a landing field with a 6,000 feet by 150 feet runway, taxiways, dispersal strips, and hardstanding areas. Relief landing grounds were also established at nearby Wivenhoe and Coominya for training purposes.

Lowood airfield was used as a motor sports race track after the war. Continued pressure from a local religious group lead to racing being discontinued on Sundays. Many race meetings were held between 1948 and 1952. The Air Ministry finally decided to close the ex-airfield for racing. However in late 1956 the area was purchased by the Queensland Racing Drivers' Club. The 25th Australian Grand Prix was hosted at Lowood on 12 June 1960. The race was won by Alec Mildren in a Cooper - Maserati T51 after 36 laps of the 4.545 kms circuit. The Queensland Racing Drivers' Club sold the race track in 1966 and moved all its races to Lakeside just north of Brisbane.
