The 1974 Australian Drivers' Championship was a CAMS sanctioned Australian motor racing title for drivers of Australian Formula 1 and Australian Formula 2 racing cars with the winner awarded the 1974 CAMS "Gold Star".[1] It was the 18th Australian Drivers' Championship.
The championship was won by Max Stewart driving a Lola T330 Chevrolet.
The championship was contested over six rounds:[2]
