I'm not sure about Mackay, but some Brisbane people go to http://sbmsc.com.au/ .

They don't require cams cages, but do need a good cage and cams non-speed licence.

Maybe search for motorsport clubs in your area.

You will require a CAMS spec cage to race in offroad racing which mainly consist of buggys and trophy trucks with the exception of a few guys running patrols etc

I know a CCDA cage is about 4-6k depending on builder so that would give you a rough idea of a price, you will also need a current cams license to enter events

here is some food for thought for you

If you bought it in the last month or two, that was his, it went hard! Would make a good racer

Cams is more than just offroad racing, you could also do rally sprints and rallies if you set the car up for it.

4-6k is ridiculous for an open top vehicle like a sierra where the cage can be removed for easy access and full welding. CCDA specs aren't even that stringent, if you can't get a CCDA cage done for under $2000 I'd be looking elsewhere.
