How would I go about getting a CAMS licence. I'm 17 on March 14th, and I have two Vdubs which I am interested in racing more than once. Any replies would be appreciated.Thanks
Zac

it aint just cool its aircool'd
what sort of vws r u going to race and what type of racing?
i'm hoping to race my two VW's. a 97 golf and a 65 type 3 notch. i had a look and i need to obtain a 2NS or 2S licence and i also need to join a club. so vwclub victoria will have another new member soon. i'll race in any type of race i can get to. speed, motorkhana, off-road, on-road whatever
Enjoy! You'll be doing your licences at Sandown - an historic track. You actually need the skills before you can do the test, so join the club and ask them for instruction. It takes a while these days (and costs a bit,) not like when I was young - but it's worth it and any further licences become easier and easier...
If I remember correctly u don't have to do any tests to get ur cams 2S. just have to be a memeber of a cams affiliated club and send away ur form and money. Zac don't bother about a 2NS its not worth it get a 2S straight away.
dont forget the medical certificate!! no tests needed!

Oh cool. Well i already have most of the skills as i race go-karts so i can drive pretty well. dad (an ex rally driver) has given me quite a few pointers and instruction. joining VWCV asap. can't wait to meet all the other dubbers.

Medical Cetificate? I didn't need one for my 2S.
You dont need one for level 2. There's a declaration on the back of the form. Thats all. If you answer yes to any of the questions then they will ask you to get a medical though.

Kombi kid, u don't need ur road lisence for ur level 2, My ex was driving at 14 with her level 2 lisence. she only got her learners last week
yer am aware of that just feel it would be useless with no background of drvinign racing in me!!
except that my father used to do it he plans to teach me all the tricks but im building a go kart at the moment with a J cart sports motor (got it for nutin worth $1700)
cheers

sorry if that mes came across all wrong. Its lots of fun. Just hope ur going to race ur VW too, the more VW's the better!!!!! Motokhana's are fun , everybody is friendly, I was really scared my first one, but got out there, mucked it up a few times, Everybody just has a few laughs and then they give u tips on how to do it better. Love any form of motor sport and the more people doing it, Especially with VW's the better!!!!
yer VW for sure!!! might do a choip top fast back fully stripped out dedicated for racing!! (but all steel no fibreglass shit!)
cheers
