The Canberra racer’s journey from go-karts to Supercars.

From when he first climbed aboard a go-kart at 10 years old to when he made his maiden Bathurst 1000 start in 2022, Canberra driver Cameron Hill’s racing career has been shaped by his determination, relentless work ethic and raw talent behind the wheel of every car he has ever raced.

After a successful career in karts, highlighted by multiple state titles, an Australian title in 2012 and a trip to the coveted Las Vegas Supernationals in 2013, Cameron selected a pathway well-travelled by many aspiring drivers – the Australian Formula Ford Championship.

With the support of his privately-run family team, Cameron finished as the highest-placed rookie in 2014 with one overall podium finish, before dominating the 2015 season – his 12 race wins that year also earning him a place among the 10 most successful drivers in the 52-year history of national Formula Ford.

Cameron progressed to the newly-created Toyota 86 Series in 2016, winning the first five races on the trot and finishing third in the standings. Returning for another Toyota 86 season in 2017, Cameron achieved the rare feat of qualifying on pole position at every single round and won eight of the 14 races.

The one-make series theme continued for Cameron in 2018, but with a substantial upgrade in speed and performance with a step up to Porsche Carrera Cup Australia. Cameron’s driving talent and his team’s tireless work ethic saw him improving over the course of the 2018 and ’19 seasons, before the 2020 series was cancelled due to COVID-19.

2021 was Cameron’s breakthrough year in the Porsche category – six consecutive race wins spanning the Sandown, Tailem Bend and Townsville rounds set him up for an emphatic series triumph. He joined David Reynolds and Steven Richards as just the third driver in history to win both the Formula Ford and Carrera Cup titles.

Cameron’s Carrera Cup success, combined with his earlier T86RS and Formula Ford achievements, caught the attention of an Australian motorsport powerhouse – Triple 8 Race Engineering, which recruited him to their Super2 Series program for the 2022 season.

Despite it being Cameron’s first season in a Supercar, he adapted with great distinction, scoring a trio of top-three race finishes and finishing fifth in the points. He also made his debut in Australia’s Great Race, the Bathurst 1000.

Cameron’s prodigious talent, exceptional results and engaging off-track personality have been widely recognised within the motorsport industry. In 2023 he made his full-time debut, joining Matt Stone Racing on a multi-year deal in the Repco Supercars Championship, driving a Gen 3 Chevrolet Camaro.

‘It is indeed a pleasure for me to endorse Cameron Hill’s credentials as perhaps Australia’s most exciting racing driver prospect in recent years. I have watched him race & I believe he has all the attributes to make a successful professional career as a racing driver. Any driver who can dominate a National Australian series (Formula Ford) the way Cameron has this year has serious natural talent. I wish Cameron all the best for the future.’
Alan Webber – Father of Formula 1 star Mark Webber
‘Cameron came to my attention whilst racing in the Australian Formula Ford Championship against my wife Leanne. His natural speed and race craft was immediately evident, but the thing that struck me most was the work he did out of the car, his own personal preparation and ensuring that all the little 1%-ers were taken care of prior to getting in the car and then going about decimating the opposition. I am sure Cameron has the ability and determination to get to the top in motorsport should he get the support he deserves.’
Garth Tander – V8 Supercar Champion, Holden Racing Team
‘When it comes to athletes that inspire as “people”, it’s usually an athlete or a team that has had to battle to achieve success – Cameron Hill is a case in point.’
