2025 Black Diamond Drilling Kalgoorlie Desert Race

“To be selected to host such a prestigious event on the Off Road Racing calendar is truly a testament to the reputation of the Kalgoorlie Desert Race as a challenging and one-of-a-kind track. I’m proud of the progress the club, committee, and volunteers – past and present — have made since the first race in 2017, and to see the vision of one day becoming an internationally recognised event realised.” – Gus Lacey, Founder of the Kalgoorlie Desert Race.

Since 2017, the Kalgoorlie Desert Race has firmly established itself on the Kalgoorlie-Boulder region’s events calendar, delivering a significant economic boost to the local economy. Over the past six years, it has generated an estimated direct financial impact of up to $5 million.

This thrilling off-road event unites riders and drivers from both the motorcycling and four-wheeled off-road racing worlds, pushing their endurance and skills against the rugged terrain of Kalgoorlie’s red sandy tracks and loamy bushland.

Our success is deeply connected to the strength, resilience, and spirit of the Kalgoorlie community — and being able to give back through local partnerships is our way of showing appreciation for the people who make this region thrive.

From grassroots events to major regional gatherings, we believe in fostering opportunities that bring people together, celebrate our mining heritage, and promote the future growth of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. By partnering with local events, we’re not only helping to strengthen community connections, but also investing in the continued success and prosperity of the Goldfields region.

At Black Diamond Drilling, we’re more than a supplier of world-class drilling consumables — we’re proud community members dedicated to building a stronger, more sustainable future for Western Australia’s mining heartland.
