MOTOR SPORTS: More than 60 of the state's best offroad racing drivers converged at Sexton last weekend for round one of the Queensland Offroad Racing Championships.

The two-day racing lineup featured up to 11 classes of vehicles, ranging from purpose-built buggies to production four wheel drives such as Pajeros and Patrols, navigating some of the roughest terrain around at speeds hitting a breakneck 200km/h benchmark.

The event was run by the Gympie Auto Sport Club. Check out some of the best snaps from the event below.
