Coffs Harbour Club Championship, Round 1

Coffs Harbour Kart Racing Club ran the first round of the 2015 Club Championship on March 1.

With a month prior of rain totalling 520mm, it was amazing to see that the members were able to get the track and grounds up to their normal amazing standard.

A mix of new pathway and old motors was going to set up an interesting test on the tight and technical 902m circuit. It was good to see a lot of new karters do their first race meeting and also a few Restricted guys jump up into Open.

Above: Joseph Woodcock jumped out into the lead and never looked back, laying down some fast laps and got within 1 tenth of the lap record in Restricted 125 Light
