A blue Volkswagen Golf and a black Nissan Skyline were weaving in and out of traffic before continuing along John Gorton Drive.
When police stopped the driver of the Volkswagen, they discovered the 35-year-old man from Denman Prospect had his three-year-old daughter in the back seat.
Police seized his vehicle, and he will face court at a later date for aggravated racing.
They are seeking information about the driver of the Nissan Skyline. Anyone with dashcam of the incident on Sunday evening to should call 1800 333000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.
