Tramway Park Raceway was bathed in sunshine for the Gippsland Go Kart Club's March club race day on the weekend.

Despite clashing with the Australian Grand Prix, entry numbers were up compared to the previous month (33 all up) with a couple of new faces, plus a handful of karters coming from other clubs.

All classes enjoyed lots of laps with 4 heats and a final.

The meeting also gained some television coverage on Monday night's WIN News.

The venue hosts round 3 of the Golden Power Series on May 6 and 7 - see Supp Regs HERE.

Karters from other clubs are invited to contest the race day the Sunday prior (April 30) to gain valuable 'race condition' track time.
