Howdy, 

From WA where I had a good tune in on what events are on and where. 

Recently moved to QLD and have managed to find the following 

Skid Control events look well run and frequent 

Noosa hill climb 

Targa Great barrier reef 

Roll Racing 

 

Are there any smaller events, or smaller race tracks I am missing out on for grass roots motorsport in QLD? 

Either circuit racing or tarmac rally sprints or similar!

To add to Rob's reply, 

Gold Coast Tweed Motorsporting Club also run regular autocross events.

Gctmc.org.au

 

Brisbane Sporting Car Club also run regular events as I understand.

I believe BSCC does and supports a lot of the Rally stuff in QLD (More dirt than Tarmac is my understanding, though could be wrong :) )

BSCC.asn.au

 

MG Car Club Queensland also owns and runs the Mt Cotton Hill Climb.

mgccq.org.au

Fantastic guys thanks for the response 

 

I am in Kangaroo Point atm, potentially moving up the coast towards noosa early next year so was trying to absorb as much knowledge as possible on QLD motorsport so I can work out my options.

Sunshine coast club looks ideal for the pending move also, where is Doonan racetrack it seems to be secret squirrels? is it someones private property?  

I have the awkward situation where my car is full rego in WA and it would never pass inspection in QLD, so will need to bring it over and trailer it everywhere. 

Doesn't look like any other options?  

Haha I am temporarily in QLD so to get it back on WA plates would be a nightmare it is at a stage of basically rally rego as its not like i drive it on the street that often unless going to an event or workshop or very rarely a early morning cruise. 


I am assuming the problem was with drifters chopping the joint up?

If you're temporarily here, use your WA rego?

 

I know of someone that has been here temporarily for 8 years and still has Vic rego...

Insurance says you got 2 weeks to change it over

You're here "temporarily".
The law actually says you have 2 weeks to change it over, not insurance, however, there's a bunch of reasons around why you legally don't need to, even with being here > 2 weeks.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
