Welcome to The WA Historic Touring Car Club!

In the sixties and early seventies names such as Beechey, Jane, Brock, Moffat and Geogheagan were carving out careers as Touring Car drivers. They drove Mustangs, Monaros, GTHOs, Chargers, Cortinas, Mini Cooper S', Toranas, Valiants and Jaguars to name a few. In those days there was a common saying: Win on Sunday, sell on Monday, meaning a good win translated directly into showroom sales.

The paddock really was a paddock and ingenuity and effort counted as much as a gun driver. Racing was close and exciting in cars little different to those our parents and we grew up with. Car manufacturers were adding GT, RS or HO models to their ranges and with the help of Lotus, Cosworth and Shelby these cars were winning road, track and rally championships around the globe.

These were the original Supercars. Historic Touring Car Racing replicates these exciting days. It's great fun and it's affordable. Our cars are presented to the highest standard but that doesn't mean the racing isn't hard and close. There's a great camaraderie amongst our Club Members in the pits, but once the flag drops the action is tough and tight.

Drivers participate in a point scored competition that covers all events entered during the racing year. First, second and third place driver of the year trophies are presented at the end of year function. Points are scored depending upon the capacity and class of the vehicle and number of cars competing in each class. This system lends itself to more spirited and interesting competition, and gives all a chance of scoring well.

Whilst we welcome anybody who is interested in the cars of this period, our focus is towards competition.

The WA Historic Touring Car Club is a non profit organization whose members consists of competitors, family, friends & pit crew involved in racing historic touring cars. Currently the club has in excess of 45 members. Grid numbers are nearing 30 vehicles per meeting and growing each year.
