2015 WA KZ Series Wrap


from WA KZ 29 October 2015

Jake Klarich was crowned our 2015 Champion on Sunday afternoon at the Series Presentation with 378 points. 40 drivers and family turned up to what is always a great event and a good opportunity to see everyone away from the track. BD was able to consolidate 2nd with 328 points and the old master Daniel Currey took full advantage of Thomas Howe having a forgettable weekend to get 3rd on 293 points.

The 2015 Ricciardo Rookie award was hotly contested as it always is. It was looking like it would be between Joshua Wood or Aarron Grossman however no one anticipated how well Jesse Elliott would do, Elliott taking the title on 211 points. Josh Wood had an average round was 2nd on 193 points. (Grossman just missing out on 192 points). Elliott would take home a Signed Ricciardo Shirt and $1000 towards his racing thanks to CPC Engineering and Daniel Ricciardo. For taking 2nd Joshua Wood gets a drive day at Rallyschool.com.au

Other random spot prizes went to:

  • Thomas Howe – Helmet Paint job thanks to SmartArts
