Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions or issues entering.

Thanking you for your support.

The Coffs Harbour Bridgestone Tyre and Auto – Sport & Leisure Motor Festival is fast approaching.

Sunday 13th April – Coffs Harbour showgrounds. Entry is free!

Have you planned to show off your pride and joy?

Its totally free to show and simple to organise. Just sign up using the QR code or visit the event page on our website or Facebook. Please contact us if you have questions.

Many local groups have already committed. It will be a great and rare opportunity to connect with the public. You are welcome to promote your business, club or group along with your display, as long as it aligns with the Festival Theme. If you are the member of a local club or group and haven’t heard of the Festival, contact the relevant person and get the ball rolling.

There will be heaps to engage the public, food, coffee, all sorts of motorised stuff and the team at Chrome Bumper will be conducting a “show n shine” competition with trophies and awards for those whom they judge the best.

As always, we are also looking for any volunteers who may wish to assist on the day. Anything from spreading the word, sharing on social media, helping organise the displays to simply speaking with the public on the day and letting them know what the club is all about. Every little bit helps.

Please contact the club if you or anyone you know, might be interested.

This is a new concept for the club and has the potential to encourage new members, strengthen and create new relationships within our community. All of which will benefit, not just our club, but motorsport and all people of the Coffs Coast region.

Its also the last CHDSCC event before, what’s shaping up to be a very busy and successful Quality Accounting Coffs Coast Rally, so lets all enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.

Lets teach every body what we already know. Motorsport is the goods, and a car club is a great place to start your education 🙂

As always we really appreciate all our supporting businesses and members working to keep the cars, competitors and club going.

See you all at The Coffs Hotel for another general meeting. We should be in the “Back Room” again same as for the recent AGM.

Everyone is welcome including prospective members and maybe members who haven’t been for a while.

We are likely to be discussing recent run events and also the Festival – April and Rally – May.

Look forward to everyone’s input.

Time flies! and the entries are filing in for the next Bush Khanacross now supported by Bonville Service Station & Licensed Post Office. Entries will still be available on the day, however we are hoping to minimise the time on paperwork and maximise the fun stuff.

The Hubcap Cafe will be open so bring some money for a great feed at lunchtime and some cold drinks if its hot.

A small team will be setting up on the Saturday beforehand if you have some spare time to share.

After that……..

Its only 48 days till our Coffs Motor Festival at the showground.

Something totally new for the club and it should prove to be fun and a great way to let the public know about us and all the other motor based groups in the area. Sign up and show your car for free!

After that…..

…and its only 68 days till the Quality Accounting Coffs Coast Rally for 2025!

What can I say about this fantastic event.

Last years effort was phenomenal and this year is already shaping up to be even bigger and better. The main organisers have been at work since the last event to improve on the success of 2024. If you haven’t signed up yet to help out or compete, what are you waiting for?

Theres bound to be lots of news around the Rally as we ramp up our readiness for May. Keep an eye on the Facebook Page (dedicated) https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61551292941327 the events page on FB (https://www.facebook.com/share/162cvWEQDa/) and the club website event page https://www.coffscarclub.com.au/events/ for further updates. Closer to the date, official documents will also be published on Sportity https://www.sportity.com/app both under the NSWRally and Queensland Rally Championship (QRC) pathways.

A khanacross event with the additional challenge of the course following forestry style tracks within the Raleigh Motorsport Complex.

A great progression from a series Khanacross on your way to a Rally Sprint or Autocross and beyond.

All the locals know how great the service and products are the Bonville Service Station & Licensed Post Office. But did you know the team have also generously offered to support some of our Car Club events too?

Its not the first time local groups have been given a leg up by this Coffs Coast landmark. We at the Car Club know how hard it is for businesses to find the time and funds to support community clubs and initiatives. Thats why when it happens its extra special.

Bonville Service Station are no strangers to going the extra mile, sharing their success and giving something back.

Its time to share the warmth and fuzziness with the rest of the region. Let people know how powerful the Coffee is and how smooth the fuel is (or should that be the other way round:)

Get you plants, post, paper and produce there!

Lets help support the team that is helping keep the dream of motorsport in the Coffs region alive, just like there coffee and croissants do for me.

They deserve a bronze statue but hopefully they will be happy with their name plastered all over our event material and the extra support from the club and anyone who will listen.

If your passing through, give a warm heartful thanks to any of the team. Let them know that the Coffs Harbour & District Sporting Car Club (and the public) recognises their generosity, support and love for the community.
