Launceston Kart Club

Just a reminder that the next club meeting is to be held at the Riverview Hotel on Wednesday 3 February at 7.30pm.

The track will be closed for corporate days on Sunday 31 January 2010 and Saturday 27 February 2010 from 10:00am to 2:00pm.

Help for the corporate day is always needed. Remember, income from these events helps to keep your membership fees down.

If you can help please contact Mark Sergeant on 0428 350 061. If you are going to turn up to test that afternoon please come two hours earlier to help out.

The State has received its first shipment of transponders that all karters will require as of 1 July 2010, or immediately if you are competing in major mainland meetings.

Please be advised that Transponder purchases are through the SKC Treasurer Dale Madden.

Details of the 2010 Tasmanian Statewide Series have been released, with the first round being held on 22 February 2010 at STKC.

The McDonalds Young Guns Meeting for 2010 , incorporating Round 1 of the Super 200 Series is being held on Sunday 17th January 2010.

Information for the Open Class (200 Supers) to be held in conjunction with the Young Guns Event on 17 January 2010 follows:

Please note that from 1 January 2010 the track is to be driven in an anti-clockwise direction only. That means when you leave the out-grid you need to turn right.

Please also take care when entering the in-grid that you clearly signal your intention to leave the track and keep to the right-hand side of the track to allow following karts clear passage through McDonalds.

In preparation for the Young Guns meeting, there will be a working bee on Saturday 9 of January starting at 10:00am.

The goal is to clean around the track and if there are enough people then the track will only need to be closed for a couple of hours to get it done.

Please come and help if at all possible. Remember that attendance will give you a discount on your next membership renewal!
