Our SSR3 is held at Collie Motorplex in April and it is always a weekend that is not only asphalt and adrenalin-charged, but also a great social component to it. Not just if you're racing!
Partners of members who are in the sporting series, along with members who wish to come along as spectators and join in on the camaraderie - you are most welcome to do so!
PCWA is running this event and we have invited members of the HSV Club and members of the Triumph Sports Owners Club to attend to ensure there are enough starters so that the event has full attendance. If you are thinking of attending - don't muck around - do it now.
Each person racing will also need to register separately and pay the $150 individually via the cams website (links below).
All cars will need a Dorian which can be hired for $20 on the CAMS website.
