Records Tumble At Gippsland's Feb Race Day

1 March 2016

Tweet

Lap records tumbled at the Gippsland Go Kart Club’s first meeting for 2016, the February club day, on Sunday.

After a working bee on Saturday to prepare the facility for the Golden Power Series round this weekend, many competitors used Saturday afternoon to try out their karts on the new-for-2016 tyres, and to get their eye back in after the off season.

In near perfect conditions, and on softer grippier tyres, the following new lap records were established:

• Cadet 12 - Bailey Collins, 32.001
• KA3 Senior Heavy - Ryan Aitken, 30.060
• KA3 Senior Light - Christian Viggiano, 30.241
• KA3 Senior Masters - Grant Wicks, 30.810
• KA4 Junior Light - Zane Bright, 31.025
• TaG 125 Heavy - Geoff Wyhoon, 30.016
• TaG125 Light - Elly Morrow, 29.678
• TaG 125 Restricted Heavy - Brett Jenkin, 30.841
• TaG 125 Restricted Light - James Fyfe, 29.913
