Where Muscle Meets Motorsport.
If you love the roar of V8s, the nostalgia of classic muscle, and proper wheel‑to‑wheel racing, you’re in the right place. Touring Car Masters (TCM) is Australia’s showcase for classic touring cars from 1963–1980—legendary machines, seasoned racers, and die‑hard fans coming together for a modern, high‑safety take on the golden era.

The Spirit of TCM
There’s nothing like the deep rumble of V8s echoing through the grandstands. Every out-lap is a ritual — drivers balancing aggression with control as legends of motorsport come alive.
As the field rolls to the green, anticipation builds. Mustangs, Toranas, Camaros, and Falcons thunder side by side, unleashing thousands of horsepower into turn one.
From there, it’s pure theatre: tyres screech, cars slide, exhausts flame and drivers battle bumper-to-bumper in raw, unfiltered racing. Inches separate glory from disaster — and every lap is a fight to the finish.
This is Touring Car Masters.
Where history meets horsepower, and the golden era roars again.
