Anyone is welcome to participate in Sprite Car Club events. You don't need to drive a Sprite or Midget on these drives. You don't need to be a member of our Club (at least not the first couple of times), but we warn you, you'll probably enjoy yourself so much that you'll want to come back for more!
Come along in your normal daily car. As a matter of fact, there have been very few drives where we haven't had at least one or two modern cars tagging along.
Just bring along your sense of fun and adventure!

Once a year each Club in turn runs a Supersprint, where cars are timed for three or four laps of a motor racing circuit. These are held at Oran Park, Eastern Creek (both in Sydney) and at Wakefield Park (Goulburn).
Any motor car is acceptable for one of these events, provided it is roadworthy and safe, and carries an approved fire extinguisher. Required dress for drivers is "neck-to-sleeve-to-ankle" non-flammable clothing, an approved helmet, sensible footwear, a CAMS Level 2S Licence and the desire for some good fun.
