23.01.2022 2019/2020 Season Club Championship Results Not the way any Club or Competitor wanted to end the 2019/2020 Race Season, but Covid-19 had other ideas. Unable to c...omplete the season with our final round we are still able to announce the winners for the Club Championship with clear winners in all brackets. The 2019/2020 Club Championship Winners were Peter O’Connell for Modified Eliminator, Leon Davies for Super Sedan, Lee Hunter for Super Street, Ron Matthews for Street Challenge, Wayne Edwards for Modified Bike and Zac Harvey for Junior Dragster. Overall Club Champion and awarded the Charlie Dennis Memorial Trophy was Peter O’Connell. We would like to thank all our loyal competitors and spectators, the Steel City Drag Clubs Sponsors, all of the Emergency Services and Volunteers throughout the season. The Committee now looks forward to an uninterrupted and exciting 2020/2021 race season which will kick off in October. See more

17.01.2022 To our faithful racers and families, After due consideration of all that is happening at the moment and with regards to conforming with the SA governments recommendations and lawful direction in dealing around Covid 19 we have been left with no choice but to postpone our 2020 Annual General Meeting until further notice. There are several legal issues that constrain us at present with the social distancing issue along with food servicing etc. Yes this means that all displays,... BBQ, Meetings and presentations are postponed until further notice. The present committee will continue to work as elected to set the next race seasons dates and events so that new committee when elected will not be on the back foot. We will also continue to operate as usual and maintain and carry out repairs and upgrades to the racetrack and other assets. We will try to reset this date asap and hopefully get that out to everyone as soon as possible Take care & Regards SCDC Committee.

14.01.2022 We are getting many many many messages in regards to running events. We just want to let everyone know that we are currently in our normal off season. We don't run through winter due to the weather as you all will understand.... We are currently working on some dates to get some form of event happening and we will keep you all posted. We also understand that everyone wants to get back to the track, as do we all. As we say we are working on it but we just ask everyone to be a little patient and we will keep you all posted once we have something sorted. Our priority is to keep everyone safe not just with Covid 19 but also wet horrible weather is not good for racing or test'n'tune days. As a club we will be adhering to all the rules and regulations that are in place. Again we just ask everyone to be a little patient.
