Welcome to the 2026 Bear Electrical Jimna Rallysprint.

After an unsuccessful attempt last year to conduct in the area, Brisbane Sporting Car Club have decided to return to a forestry area in Queensland which has a long rich history within rallying in Queensland. Personally, I like to thank the Board of the Brisbane Sporting Car Club to allow to me run this event for them.

In 2026, costs to running any event are higher than in previous years. Organisers need to require heavily on sponsorship to help contain the costs for organisers, competitors and officials. Many thanks to Adam O’Brien and Beth Mahney at Bear Electrical, Matt Dolan at Future Auto Service Center and John Keen at Ship Shape Ships, we have been able to provide a QRC, Clubman, Novice and Regularity round that is affordable to all.

With the recent changes made to the Motorsport Australia S2 Rallysprint Standing Regulations, we have been able to increase the total stage distance for the entire event to 93km on good, formed gravel forestry roads that have been upgraded with recent logging operations by HQ Plantations. And with the minimal liaison between stages, you will be spending more time competitively than been on a public road and in the service park.

Jimna Base Camp will play host to the Service Park for the event and camping is available to all competitors, service crews and officials. There will be breakfast and lunch during the day. At the conclusion of the event, the Jimna Sporting Club, top of Service Park will be open for dinner where presentations will be held at the conclusion of the event.

I look forward to seeing your entry at this years 2026 Bear Electrical Jimna Rallysprint.
