Since its formation in 1975, the MILLMERRAN AUTO CLUB has catered for many different forms of Motor Sport.  In the beginning it was a matter of finding an old car, putting a bar in it and you could go racing.  We then formed classes for motor bikes, go-karts and even farm quad-bikes.

As the years have progressed, the demands of the motor-sport enthusiast have changed and circuit racing has been replaced by the extremely popular sprint racing.  The success of this form of competition is largely due to its relatively cheap set-up cost and the relaxed, friendly atmosphere surrounding these events.  Existing race-cars of most shapes, forms or configurations can compete as well as registered road vehicles.  Competitors are electronically timed over a two lap standing start journey with two cars -half a lap apart- on the circuit at once.  The surface is dirt but once settled has an extremely grippy nature.

Another great benefit of Sprint Racing is the almost complete absence of panel damage with any bingles generally being the result of the individuals own over-enthusiasm.  Whilst we appreciate well presented cars it is not a prerequisite for Sprint Racing.  However, safety standards will not be compromised and sub-standard cars will not be allowed to compete.

The Millmerran Auto Club in conjunction with The Millmerran Shire Youth Council has embarked on a Junior Development Driver Training Programme.  This programme not only gives our young drivers a chance to enhance their driving skills in a safe and controlled environment, it introduces them to motor sport without the expensive and time consuming experiences of purchasing and setting-up race cars.  The Millmerran Shire Youth Council has purchased cars suitable for the driver training programme and the only costs for the participants are Club membership (yearly or daily), C.A.M.S. licence (yearly) and a small fee to cover Insurance and fuel costs.

This Club and its venue at Reserve Raceway located three kilometres from Millmerran boasts excellent facilities for visiting clubs.  Plenty of camping/parking space septic toilets and a fully equipped canteen make it the ideal spot for an over-night stop or special stages on rallies.
