Please join us for Round 3 for the 2026 season, hosted by Melbourne Comp Crawlers Inc. This will be a 2-day event and we’ll be camping at Melville Caves Campground on Friday and Saturday nights (and some may also stay Sunday night). The comp will be at Melville Caves Lookout on Saturday May 16 and Sunday May 17, 2026.
This round sponsored by Huntsman Crawlers (thanks Jamie!) and Pricey’s Custom Crawlers (thanks Pricey!). Custom tube cage body for TT up for grabs, with a set of PCC Shocks – AND another set of PCC Shocks. Nice!
WHEN
SATURDAY 10AM TO 4PM (ISH), MAY 16, 2026
SUNDAY 10AM TO 4PM (ISH), MAY 17, 2026
What if it’s raining? We’ll run in all weather, though if it is wet, we’ll likely extend the number of Class-1 and Tuff Truck courses and keep the other less waterproof class rigs packed away.
WHERE
Melville Caves Lookout (car park), Brenanah, VIC (Gmaps)
There’s plenty of parking here. We’ll be operating within 1 to 5 minutes’ walk from this location.
AMENITIES
There are drop toilets (serviced by Parks Victoria) about 5 mins’ walk down the road, at the other end of the camp ground. You will drive past these on your way to the lookout. As far as food goes, Melville Caves is very much a BYO-everything location, including water.
CLASSES/SCHEDULE
We’ll be running 5 classes over the weekend. 5 courses per class, 6 minutes per course – that’s up to 150 minutes on-course at this comp if you drive all 5! All classes will have 5 courses to run. They’ll be marked clearly from #1 to #5. Be sure to match this with your scoring on crawlerresults.com when doing your runs. More info at driver briefing, which is at 10am each day.
