Aaron Cameron (born 27 January 2000) is an Australian professional racing driver currently competing in the Supercars Championship. He pilots the No. 3 Ford Mustang S650 for the Blanchard Racing Team.
Early career
Cameron's motorsport journey began in karting within Victoria, where he made a significant impact at age 14 in 2014 by securing multiple junior state championships. The following year, 2015, saw him step up to national competitions and participate selectively in European events, including the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals and the KF-Junior division of the Karting World Championship.
In 2016, he transitioned from karting to car racing, achieving third place in the Victorian Formula Ford Championship and competing in two rounds of the 2016 Australian Formula Ford Championship.
Throughout 2017, Cameron broadened his experience by racing in various grassroots categories such as the Toyota 86 Racing Series, V8 Ute Racing Series, Keema Cars Excel Cup (Hyundai Excel X3), along with participating in a one-make endurance event featuring the Holden HQ Kingswood.
The year 2018 marked a highlight as Cameron claimed the KZ2 championship in the Australian Kart Championship with JC Kart, a team owned by James Courtney. Additionally, he competed in the 2018 SuperUtes Series, concluding the season fifth overall.
Touring car career
Cameron made his TCR debut at the 2018 24 Hours of Barcelona, driving the No. 138 Audi RS 3 LMS TCR for MARC Cars Australia. Unfortunately, the team retired after nine hours and was not classified due to not completing sufficient distance.
In May 2019, he joined Melbourne Performance Centre to pilot the No. 2 Volkswagen Golf GTI TCR during the inaugural TCR Australia Series. Cameron earned his first series victory in the penultimate race at The Bend Motorsport Park and finished third overall for the season, trailing Will Brown and Tony D'Alberto.
For the 2020 campaign, Cameron signed with Garry Rogers Motorsport to drive a Peugeot 308 TCR under Team Valvoline GRM. He remained with Garry Rogers Motorsport for four seasons, achieving his best result in 2021 by finishing as runner-up in the series.
Supercars
In 2024, Cameron contested the 2024 Super2 Series with Kelly Racing, securing second place behind Zach Bates. This strong showing earned him an endurance co-driving role at Blanchard Racing Team in the 2024 Supercars Championship and garnered him the esteemed Mike Kable Young Gun Award.
