🏁🔥 DID YOU KNOW CAIRNS HAS BOTH AN OFF-ROAD AND ON-ROAD RC RACE TRACK? 🔥🏁
Many people are surprised when they find out that right here in Cairns we have dedicated facilities for both Off-Road and On-Road RC racing! 🚗💨
What makes this even more exciting is that next weekend we officially begin construction of our brand-new 2026 Off-Road Track! 🏗️🏁
Over the past few months, our club members and local businesses have achieved something truly incredible. Hundreds of volunteer hours have gone into cleaning up the facility, upgrading infrastructure, installing drainage, moving earth, painting, repairing, maintaining and preparing the site for what will be a massive step forward for RC racing in Far North Queensland.
This project would not have been possible without the support of our dedicated members and the amazing local businesses that have donated equipment, materials, machinery, services and their time. The amount of community support has been outstanding and shows what can be achieved when everyone works together. 👏❤️
📍 OFF-ROAD TRACK
Lot 68 Maher Road, Gordonvale
📍 ON-ROAD TRACK
45 Behan Street, Manunda
Whether you're into: 🏎️ Nitro Racing ⚡ Electric Racing 🏁 Off-Road Racing 🏁 On-Road Racing 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Fun 🤝 Meeting Like-Minded People..there has never been a better time to get involved!
We welcome drivers of all ages and experience levels, from complete beginners through to seasoned racers. If you've ever thought about giving RC racing a go, come down and check out what we're building. You might be surprised by the facilities, the racing and the great group of people involved.
🚧 Track construction starts next weekend! 📸 Progress photos and updates will be posted regularly. 🚀 The future of RC racing in Cairns is looking brighter than ever.
A massive thank you again to every member, sponsor, volunteer and local business that has helped us get to this point. This rebuild is a huge achievement for our club and community, and we're only just getting started!

Massive shoutout to Matt Ducie and Duce Construction for the ongoing support 👏🔥
Not only have we been lucky enough to use their skid steer over the last few weeks, but now also lending us their roller to help get our off-road pad ready for the new track rebuild 🚜👌 and of course Jamie Thygesen and Tigo's Towing.
True locals helping locals and absolute legends for getting behind the club and helping make this rebuild happen. Support like this doesn’t go unnoticed and is hugely appreciated by everyone involved 🍻
