About Us
Victorian V8’s Inc (VicV8’s) is a CAMS affiliated car club, formed in 2012 by a group of like-minded sprinters that wanted to go RACING. The club was formed to provide the following outcomes:
- Develop driving skills and race craft
- Learn car set up to optimise performance
- Provide a stepping stone to State based racing series
- Go racing at a reasonable cost
- Acquire relative CAMS license requirements
- Drive with people with equivalent skills
- Race within an environment that promotes comradery and learnings
- Everyone is driving there pride and joy
- Have a Penalty system that deters any car contacts
- Have an effective scoring system the rewards consistency - not the fastest car
Although the club’s name implies V8’s, variations to this are allowed at the discretion of the Committee, and will be limited to early 6 cylinder Muscle Cars such as XU-1 Torana’s and similar specification Chrysler product.
A CAMS Provisional Clubman Circuit (PCC) license is the minimum required to enter this series. A medical examination as set out in the Cams Manual of Motorsport is required as part of the PCC application. Also each vehicle will be required to have a CAMS Log Book.
