Fresh faces and fresh ideas welcome.
The club turns 60 this year (2026)!
We have lots of plans and projects underway to improve and secure the clubs future.
We need committee members (people who assist with decision making and if possible carry out tasks to assist with the running of events/club).
Time commitment is up to you. No skill necessary. Non driving family/friends welcome.
This is your club so come along and have your say, vote or get involved. (Looks great on a resume for those at the start of their career.)
An amazing 11th outright finish for our vice president Sam Hill and his daughter Makayla in the recent Rally of Bathurst. First drive for Sam for three years, first time out in the H6 Subaru and Makayla’s first time co-driving! Lets hope its the start of a great year for the team.
Our favourite sport is under threat from not having enough volunteers to support events. In particular our cousins the Hastings Sporting Car Club are looking for assistance with the famous Kumho Tyres Bago Rally for 2026.
Can you help?
Volunteer for the local Bago Rally and get into Rallying!
Best way to spectate.
No experience necessary.

Thanks to everyone for braving the conditions for Sundays, Round 1 of the Coffs Coast Khanacross Series for 2026 supported by Steve Arthur Electrical.
The inconsistent conditions made it hard for some to get ahead of rivals. The juniors certainly kept the pressure on with some cracker runs. The odd error helped mix the order up througout the day. One competitor remarking “I was just driving around looking for grip”. Lucky it aligned with most of the course!
Congratulations to all competitors for an smooth event with no incidents.
A great dedication to Chris at the Driver Briefing from Tony Creer with the floor being open to anyone to voice their respects. Most competitors choosing to pay theirs by a “Rev for Chris” at the start line.
These events could not proceed without all the help received on the day. Thanks to the BBQ chefs, course setters, timing and scorer (and videographer!) starter (and first aider and and flag replacerer), documenterers, supporting businesses and volunteers. Its appreciated that some of the juniors were amongst those helping out both on the course and in the van. The future is looking bright on both sides of the barrier.
Special thanks for Helen and the Piggott family for allowing the event to proceed at a very difficult time.
Finally thanks to Chris. Who knows where we would have been without you, your dreams, hard work and sacrifice.
With the news of the tragic passing of Chris Piggott (the owner of Raleigh Raceway), our thoughts are with Helen (business partner of 26 years), The Piggott family, The Team at Raleigh international raceway, members of Raleigh Motorsports Association Inc and all of the car community affected by the passing.
I hope you can join the rest of the community on the various Facebook pages and share your memories and celebrate the joyful moments around Chris and his incredible achievements.
The Khanacross planned for this Sunday (1st March) is still going ahead.
I hope those of you who knew Chris would agree that respectfully continuing to run the event would be his most likely wish.

The future is a little uncertain however we will continue to work towards events until the situation resolves itself.
As many of you may have realised the creation of the Great Koala Park in the region will greatly impact the future of Rally, Rally Sprint and forest based recreation in our area.
If you would like to voice your opinion on the matter, I suggest you complete the survey which is open now. Link provided below.
