Castle Hill RC On Road
Castle Hill Remote Control On Road is a not for profit club dedicated to 1/10th scale electric remote control car racing. Established over 30 years ago under our original name, Castle Hill Raceway, the club rebranded in 2017 and continues to serve as a cornerstone of the Sydney RC community.
We operate every Friday night at the Undercover Ring within the Castle Hill Showground. The facility boasts a 700 square metre track featuring a Boral Coat painted concrete surface for enhanced traction, complete with overhead lighting, spacious pit areas and canteen facilities.
Following a successful period of running additional race meets at Whalan, from May 2020 through mid 2026, operations at that venue have officially transitioned to the Sydney Model Car Club (SMCC), allowing Castle Hill RC to centre its focus on its primary Showground events.
