Track Info

Last Track Laps

Catch the final laps of a race day at Yerrinbool Oval.

Our purpose-built astro-turf track at Yerrinbool Oval is open for practice freely to everyone, year-round. Whether you're a member or just curious about the hobby, you're welcome to come down, set up, and enjoy the track at your own pace.

Please note: Power is not active at the Club house unless it's a Club Race Day or an organised practice day. If you're planning to practice outside of those times, make sure to bring your own charged batteries and power supply.

Time

What To Bring

A camp table and chair to make yourself comfortable, and a portable extension cord and power board (we have a few spare too). Always pack spare batteries for your controller too. If you have a gazebo shade, they're handy too for shade.

Canteen

Our Club runs a canteen on race days. Typically a BBQ, meat pies and sausage rolls. We always have some special surprises like burgers, souvlaki, meatball subs and hotdogs. We keep the menu fresh and home-made. Cold and hot drinks are also available.

2WD Buggy

Best for beginners

2WD Buggy

The most popular offroad class. Fast, agile and easy to maintain. Available as self-build kits or Ready-to-Runs (RTR). RTRs are the easier and cheaper option for joining the hobby, while self-build kits help you learn how your car goes together and works.

2WD Stadium Truck

Fun & plush

2WD Stadium Truck

Very similar to 2WD Buggies but with bigger wheels, tyres and a truck body — more plush to drive. Most share chassis and suspension parts with 2WD Buggies, making a great second class without needing a different box of spares. Wheels sit outside the body.

4WD Buggy

Technical challenge

4WD Buggy

For those who like a technical challenge! More difficult to maintain than 2WD Buggies, but offers unparalleled performance with power driving all 4 wheels. Easier to drive for beginners, though generally has a higher kit price. Recommended after mastering 2WD Buggy.

4WD Short Course Truck

Resembles the real thing

4WD Short Course Truck

The new racing class on the block, popular as they resemble their full-size counterparts. Available in both 2WD and 4WD, though 2WD has become the more popular and adopted class for racing. Wheels sit under the body.

Vintage

All makes & models

Vintage

For any beauty of a car you want to be gentle with — enter it in the Vintage class. All makes, models and years are acceptable. A relaxed, laid-back class focused on enjoying classic and cherished vehicles rather than all-out racing.
