Model Car Racing
History
The Sydney On Road Model Car Club (SORMCC) hosts regular race meetings every two weeks on Saturday at Morreau Reserve, Church Street, Eastern Creek. If you are not familiar with radio control car racing, it is a very open, friendly atmosphere activity, attracting people from eight years old to eighty, both male and female to compete evenly on a level playing ground. It is also common for less able bodied people to take up this activity as all that is required to compete is a sense of fun and a sharp mind. Organised racing has been around since the early eighties, with many clubs throughout Australia. It has also attracted its share of international interest with Australia hosting two World Championship events in various classes.
