Sporting Car Club was founded in Adelaide in 1934, making the Club the second oldest continually running car club in the world. Our 1700 members all love cars taking part in motorsport and motoring events.

Much of what the Sporting Car Club is about is motorsport. The Club run both circuit and hillclimb events at The Bend Motorsport Park, Mallala Motor Sport Park and our very own Collingrove Hillclimb. Members as well as the general public have the opportunity to compete and experience life in motorsport.

The Club is extremely proud of the ongoing patronage by the Governor of South Australia.

The Club also encourage the use, preservation and restoration of historic motor vehicles. The collection of motorsport and motoring information in the magnificent Eric Rainsford Library, is one of the largest in the southern hemisphere. The Library offers Club Members workshop manuals, spare parts lists, current motoring journals and motoring books in addition to videos. Over 7000 volumes including workshop manuals, spare parts lists, motoring journals and books are mostly available for Members to borrow and research is available to non-Members.

The Club organise events and social gatherings like hillclimbs, runs and rallies including the popular Sunseeker Rally, May Day Run and John Blanden's Climb to the Eagle which originated in Adelaide just prior to each of the Australian Grand Prix is legendary.
