USCA Australia Event Format
Each USCA event is a unique blend of tests of each vehicle’s performance, street-ability, and engineering workmanship. Our weekend event schedule is packed from start to finish with multiple segments that truly help us determine the Ultimate Street Car. The winner from this event wins a trip to Las Vegas and the SEMA Show! Click through any of the segments below to learn about each of them.
The Acceleration and Braking competition is a timed event that establishes the ability of the car and driver to accelerate, negotiate tight turns, and stop in a designated spot. Traction and braking are the two key mechanical tests, while timing and car control are the two driver tests.
The Auto Test competition is a timed event that establishes the ability of the car and driver to negotiate tight turns and slow speed maneuvers.
The Drag Race competition is a side by side timed event that tests the grip and acceleration of the car in a straight line over a fixed distance. It also challenges the drivers to be at their best when pitted against other drivers in a true “race”.
