MSCA Come & Try Track Days
MSCA was founded over 50 years ago as a way of enabling clubs to run track days. We are focused on grassroots motorsport and are known for delivering professionally run track events. Our culture is one of inclusivity, friendliness, and respect.
MSCA has been running successful Come & Try Days for the past seven years, with over 700 drivers participating in the program in both Victoria and South Australia. The ethos behind our Come & Try Day is to introduce new drivers to circuit sprinting in a safe, fun, and educational way.
Over the past two years approximately 25% of our entrants were women and we hope to achieve similar numbers year on year. The Come & Try Day has a dedicated ladies group which is designed for women looking to get a start in a calmer environment. MSCA’s Petrina Astbury’s own experience of getting on the track was a daunting one and is one of the many reasons we are passionate advocates for supporting women in our sport.
