Anyone, young or old, can become an MG Racer.

To start, you need to be a member of the MG Car Club and have the use and/or ownership of an MG race-car.

To race in State level competition you must have at least a Level 3 Circuit Racing Licence. This involves a driving test, a medical examination, attendance at CAMS lecture night and a proper knowledge of flags and race procedure. The licence tests are conducted on a regular basis by CAMS evaluators. A list of the available dates is maintained by CAMS.

Another option is to attend a driver training and assessment day with the CAMS accredited driver-training unit. Accreditation is renewed on an annual basis and enquiries should be directed to CAMS or to the MG Racing Committee to obtain the name of the current accredited driver-training unit.

Any MG is eligible to race provided a CAMS logbook has been issued. We have one grid, which is split into three categories:

• Open class
• Fast Road
• Historic

Racing need not be expensive. A good club car can be upgraded for racing by expenditure on suspension, brakes, tyres and appropriate safety equipment (as detailed by CAMS). Properly set up, such a car will provide great fun for at least one full season. Thereafter, the formula can be expressed as follows: Talent x Budget = Results. But whether at the front, middle or rear of the grid - MG Racing will always be fun - in the fast lane!

The MG Racing has a mentor system to encourage and assist new racers to obtain a licence and prepare their car for racing. Contact the MG Racing Committee for more details.

Perhaps the best way to get involved is to attend a few race meetings, wander around the pits, introduce yourself and ask questions of MG Racers (go to Coming Events for a list of forthcoming MG Races). Like most MG owners, unless they are frantically preparing a car for the next race, they would be more than happy to talk about themselves and their cars.

MG Racing holds regular meetings following each race meeting, which you are more than welcome to attend. Click here for a list of forthcoming events involving the MG Racing Register.
