Motorsport events on the west coast this summer

[busta]

Hi guys,

I'm a Brit travelling to Aus at the end of the month for a year or two, working and touring my way around, and hoping to sample a slice of Aussie car culture while I'm over.

I'm gonna be touring up the west coast from the end of September and was wondering if there's any motorsport events going on that might be worth catching on my way. Are there any good websites that list this kind of thing? I'm interested in anything- circuit racing, rallying, off roading, motoX, tractor pulling.....

It's a shame your not here this weekend.

This takes place on the 11th and 12th October at Barbegallo raceway.
Not so much motorsport but it might be worth a look all the same.

Drifting, V8's, burnout comp, dyno runs, etc

Looks good fun, I'll see if I'm still in Perth on either of those dates.

Thanks guys.

I checked the website and there seems to be quite a good line up. Some classic 80's rally cars and some modern exotica.
I'm going to try and get to the stages on Sunday. If I'd have known earlier, I'd have cancelled golf and gone on Saturday as well.

Ah well.
