Some Tassie CAMS affiliated clubs

The MG car club is cams affiliated. I think it is tassies largest sporting car club. It is a very active club, offering 10 competition events and lots of social events also. Its only real problem is an ageing population.

The light car club is mainly Launceston based and they are also cams affiliated, but only run speed events and no motorkhanas.

The north west car club is cams affiliated also, they run many hillclimbs, one motorkhana, circuit events, and also run rallies.

This is just a few that i have had involvement with, but there are plenty of others.
If you want contact details for any of these clubs, pm me and i will pass them on.

If you go to www.cams.com.au they list all the clubs in whatever region you are in. I am in Club Motorei Italia and those guys are a friendly bunch. Lots of Italian cars in their newsletter for some reason! Lots of MG stuff in their newsletter too! CMI can certainly organise hillclimbs well and the rest of the Tasmanian clubs could take lessons from them. MG run great motorkhanas, very slick

The Hobart Sporting Car Club actually run full race meetings and have done for 50 years.

I joined Philip Island track club to get a cams licence. You can just join till the end of their membership year for less!

[Bluerex]

The Brindabella Motor Sport Club is one of two "rally" clubs in the ACT. CAMS affiliated and friendly to all car lovers - although non-rally members may come in for some good natured ribbing :-) Kahna and other non-speed events are also held regularly.
Check http://www.bmsc.com.au/ to join on-line.

im a member of VW club of WA but i dont think that they have anything to do with CAMS. They are not listed on CAMS website. does anyone know who do i have to be a member with (in WA) to get this license?

[vanilla5]

for a cams licence in wa related to vw's either the wascc or al fours and rotaries car club.
i am a member of all fours, cheap membership compared to wascc.

[rodrocco]

VWCWA Inc have not been with CAMS since we pulled the pin in '83, as the fees were over the top for little on offer. Club fees would have to go up if we rejoined and I suspect the number of members wanting a CAMS lic would be minimal.

There's also nolimits car club in WA (I think its the cheapest)

I'm only a member of AFARCC though

[GOLFBALLS]

There's also the Vintage Sporting Car Club inc. (VSCCWA). Although there's not too many of us on here with cars 'vintage' enough to qualify. Maybe some early mk1's.
I still joined coz a friend lends me his mk1 Escort RS2000 to race:nana:

[Manaz]

I've just enquired about membership in the Volkswagen Club of NSW Inc, they're based in Parramatta.

WRX Owners Club of WA are CAMS affiliated. www.wrxownersclub.com.au

There's a few VW's in the club (couple of R32's and a few GTI's including mine, plus some Porsches). Club is very much focused on track and motorsport activities. Dont get any ricer's in the club as they tend to stick to internet forums and fully sic cruises.
Very well organised and great value track and tuning days at AHG, Barbagallo, Collie, Mt Ommanney hillclimb. We get to use the long track at AHG on 2 Sundays of the year. Only club that does so from what I understand (due to the popularity of the V8 rides)

Around the Newcastle area the MG Car Club has a bunch of events including a few hillclimbs a year at the Ringwood Circuit (near Raymond Terrace), and the Mattara Hillclimb. They also do the odd Motorkhana and they had a track day down at Eastern Creek on VW Nationals Weekend too.

This is one of my mates demonstrating the Ringwood circuit.

I'm planning on joining the club soon.

[qsilverza]

I need to do my Provisional Circuit got to do a health check +test +track test sounds like fun though... and if i do the Provisional Circuit that gives me an equivelant in National rally giving me the ability to get a rally reg for the car if I so wish.

Forgot to mention, I am a member of Club Audi vic a CAMS affliated club and we often run days in conjunction with BMW-CCV. www.clubaudivic.com.au

No longer true I'm afraid. VWCV have let their CAMS affiliation lapse. There's move afoot to reinstate it but it'll take some time.

If you obtained your license under VWCV then you probably need to join another club to race as you have to have both a license and a current membership of a CAMS affiliated club.

Of course come renewal time you'll need to join some club other than VWCV in any case.

I chose PIARC.

Guys,

best run club i've ever been a part of, with a very very professional attitude is the Maserati club of Australia (inc). Annual fees are very low, and they can/do have a register for club permits.

Maserati Club of Australia, Inc. (http://www.maserati.org.au)

With this club, I am able to have my 1962 Vespa, and my 1972 Fiat Spyder club registered without any hassles. Also note, that the majority of members do NOT own a Maserati.

Hope this helps.

[16v_kid]

Nice to see I'm not the only one with a fiat 124 on this site. I'm with the BMWCCV. Very kind people and happy to help in any area's.

[the scotsman]

Other cams approved clubs:
Porsche owner club nsw
clubman drivers club of Australia
A.R.D.C
If you join a few clubs you can get different perks, cheaper test days and club only championships.

Dear God, I am dooing my head in looking for a CAMS affiliated club in Victoria hopefully in Melbourne or west of Melbourne. I have stumbled across some but they usually are involved with more advanced competition or dirt rally. I am after Gymkana's and track days.... mainly just the tame stuff and a club that is fairly large and active.
Any suggestions HUGELY appreciated as I am new to the whole club thing

[Water Boy]

Ummmmm PIARC, SAU, Nissan car club, Toyota car club of Vic.

[Peter Jones]

There's a club finder on the CAMS website broken down by type of activity.

CAMS - Confederation of Australian Motor Sport (http://www.cams.com.au/Development/Club%20Zone/Club%20Finder.aspx)

A search for ALL in VIC returns 100 affiliated clubs.

[adzy]

Yeah thanks guys, I have seen that list Pete.... might go with the Maserati club based on what I have heard.

Cheers

[entice]

X2 re Maserati club...

I'm a member and of all the car clubs I have ever been a member of, it's the most professionally run and approachable one of the lot!
