2020 BFGoodrich CAMS Australian Off Road Championship

The BFGoodrich CAMS Australian Off Road Championship has confirmed the annual Kalgoorlie Desert Race has been named a candidate event for the 2020 Championship and beyond.

CAMS Director of Motor Sport and Commercial Operations Michael Smith said the popular event was firming as a potential fourth round of the AORC, with discussions ongoing with event organisers and the local government.

“Kalgoorlie Desert Race has proven itself as a popular and exciting off road event that is one of the highlights of the Western Australia motor sport calendar,” Smith said.

“We’re really excited to be working with the City of Kalgoorlie Boulder who are amazing supporters of the event in its current form, and also really passionate about growing the race into a national level event. They have a rich history of hosting motor sport events and would certainly be capable of welcoming the AORC to the west.

“The extension of the BFGoodrich CAMS Australian Off Road Championship is always something we are looking into and this event in Kalgoorlie is certainly a very strong candidate to be part of the AORC line up.”

The Kalgoorlie Desert Race brings together participants from both the motorcycling and four-wheeled off road racing world, as man and machine face the ultimate test of endurance against the untamed wild.
Kalgoorlie’s red sandy tracks and loamy bush offers competitors the perfect terrain, while the close proximity of the course to the Kalgoorlie town centre allows easy access for both local and
non-local spectators.

This, the third year of the Kalgoorlie Desert Race, sees the track settling into it’s own unique groove and flow; which is gaining much praise and excitement from the ever increasing field of competitors.

The approximately 130 kilometer course offers a wide variety of terrains, flat dead flat salt lakes through to sandy wooded sections and a range of well formed berms to really rail though. the Kalgoorlie Desert Race has something that every competitor and spectator will enjoy.

The course offers a fuel stop approximately half way through and the course being essentially a circuit makes it easy for competitors to be based at a single location for the weekend.
