Terry Baker Motorsport Weekend - Multi Club Motorkhana, Hillclimb & Touring Road Event
If you are looking for a fun weekend of multi-discipline motorsport, the Terry Baker Motorsport Weekend is a must.
The event runs over 2 days and has three disciplines (well four if you include the pub meal)
Saturday Morning
The event begins on Saturday with a fun touring road section where you drive a set route to Haunted Hills. This is completed within the road rules and is suitable for vehicles towing car trailers to the event. There are a few set tasks you have to complete and bonus points for bribing the event organisers (usually with a 50c chocolate bar or similar).
Vehicle requirements: Roadworthy and registered vehicle. Suitable for tow vehicles if you are trailering your race car to the event.
Licence requirements: Valid Australian Drivers Licence (not required for passengers)
Saturday Afternoon
The competitive section begins in the afternoon with a Motorkhana in the Haunted Hills car park. This is a test of skill and maneuverability where you are timed and receive penalty additions for hitting cones or taking the wrong direction on the course. The courses will change after each run and most will see you only requiring first gear, although sometimes reverse is required later in the day just to spice it up. Motorkhanas are all about car control and if you have never done one, get ready for some fun, they are easily the most smiles per metre of any motorsport discipline.
Vehicle Requirements: Vehicle must be in a roadworthy state with no loose objects in the cabin or boot, the battery must be securely mounted. Helmets are only required for Motorkhana Specials.
Licence requirements: Motorsport Australia Speed Licence or equivalent.
Saturday Night
Following the end of competition on Saturday all entrants are invited back to the pub for a meal and a chinwag to share stories from the day. Most people also stay at overnight accommodation at this location or nearby.
Sunday (All Day)

Vehicle requirements: Fire extinguisher must be mounted within reach of the driver. Long sleeves, pants, closed toe shoes and Helmets to be worn by the driver and passengers (when allowed).
Licence requirements: Motorsport Australia Speed Licence or equivalent.
