Yes you can!
Under the provisions of the Vic Club permit scheme, somebody in your 'Club A' should have a special permit book that allows you to participate in any sort of activity on the road, even if it's not in the Club's calendar.
The book is a series of duplicate pages onto which you note the details of your trip (date, destination, purpose etc) prior to the outing. It's signed by the person in 'Club A' who has this responsibility and yourself. You take the top copy (the original) with you, and the duplicate remains in the book.
You can use it for interstate trips, special outings and non-club activities.
Curl...all the above is possible...if you first clear it with the CRS Registrar of your club. I suggest everyone read the rules before going off half-cocked....saying you could only use a CRS registered car 4 times per year is not right....thats all the person chose to use it!!
Your log book allows up to something like 4000 Km per years on authorised events or activities. For a start you are allowed a weekly run within a few kilometeres radius to make sure brakes and oil galleries are well lubricated etc etc.
Regular trips to repairers are allowed.
Interstate trips to attend other clubs events are allowed by prior arrangement.
The whole scheme is run to allow those with Historic Vehicles to keep them in running order for a nominal sum....it operates on the premise that those who have CRS realise it is a privelege not to be abused....it is not cheap rego...if you want a daily runner and don't want to conform to the rules that everyone else has to...then go and get full rego!!
