Bairnsdale Speedway

Bairnsdale Speedway Association, a volunteer-run community organisation, began about 40 years ago and started racing at Granite Rock Speedway, on the northern outskirts of Bairnsdale. This is still its home. The club began with daylight race meetings, progressing to night racing.

The club works very closely with a number of volunteer groups at the race meetings, and in turn donates annual amounts to these organisations.

State Championships are regularly held at BSA’s raceway at Granite Rock. In the 2015/16 season there will be three state titles held at the track They are the Limited Sportman in February, Mini Sprints at the Easter meeting (March) and the Marsh Modifieds in April.We are also holding the Bairnsdale Autobarn 2000 for the return of the Street Stocks to Bairnsdale after a number of years.

The major event of the racing season is traditionally on Boxing Day. This night race meet has usually the largest crowd of the season attending. This season, the crowd will thrill to Super Sedans, as well as the VSC Sprintcars, Mini Sprints, , Limited Sportsman and the Standard Saloons. The VSC Sprintcars are always popular with the crowd and compete five times at Granite Rock this season.

Bairnsdale Speedway Association strives to provide good-value family entertainment to the Bairnsdale and district community. The audience ranges from very young children to grandparents. During the summer and at Easter, locals and visitors to the region enjoy the racing. Outside the racing season, the Bairnsdale Speedway has periodically been used for school concerts, Monster Trucks and 4WD races, Lawn Mower races and Alpine Rally Cars.
