ABOUT

NASR, was formed in 1997 when the Federation of Australian Speedway (FAS) and World Series Sprintcars combined to operate as the peak body for Speedway Racing in Australia.  

In 2011, NASR rebranded to become Speedway Australia, reflecting a wave of organisational changes and a better resourced peak body for the sport.

Speedway Australia currently oversees in excess of 80 track operators, 15 sanctioning bodies and over 12,000 licence holders comprising of drivers, car owners, crew, officials, media, safety team members and fire fighting workers.

As the peak body in Australian Speedway, Speedway Australia is constantly working diligently as an industry advocate and plays a vital role in representing the speedway industry in discussions with other major motor sport organisations, Government bodies and external regulators.

Speedway Australia is also responsible for an Australia-wide licensing system, which includes complimentary Personal Accident Injury Insurance.  Speedway Australia’s Insured Track system provides Group Public Liability Insurance at a rate that would be otherwise unattainable for individual Speedways.  

Our Mission:

To provide unity, leadership, direction and growth as the recognised peak body of speedway racing in Australia by:

• developing standards in safety, training, presentation and performance;
• improving the profile and establishing a promotional image for the industry; and
• coordinating, standardising and developing management skills at all levels.
