New In-grid Out-grid, in-ground Scales and Flag-point Lights
The expanded In-grid Out-grid is operational and our in-ground scales are ready as well, along with a new trolley bay location. We also have nine new flag-point lights in use around the track. Its great to see our facilities improving each meeting.
We’ll continue adding additional concrete and barriers to the In-grid Out-grid prior to the Black Plate event next month.
Volunteers needed
We need some additional volunteers for setting up the track and lights on Saturday and for manning the Canteen on race day, Sunday.
Contact [email protected] for more details if you’re available and able to help.

A Bring-a-Mate session will be run during the day. Contact [email protected] for more details.

Round 3 is your last opportunity to prepare for our Black Plate event next month.
The Black Plate event will likely be combined with our Greater Sydney Cup event held on Saturday/Sunday 10th – 11th August.
Enter for your chance to win a new Kosmic, Lando Norris, Redspeed, Gillard or Carlos Sainz chassis!
All our Round 3 entrants who are members of Greater Sydney Kart Club will be entered into the draw to win a new OTK chassis. Get your entries into Round 3 which is opening shortly for another ticket in the draw.
At the end of the 2024 season one lucky club member will be given an OTK chassis of their choice via raffle.
If you like the idea of winning a Kosmic, Lando Norris, Redspeed or even the brand new Carlos Sainz CS55 kart then all you have to do is join the club, or be a current paid member, and race with us. Every time you enter a round of the 2024 Club Championship you will get a ticket in the draw to win this amazing OTK kart.
The draw will happen at the end of the 2024 Club Championship year and the rolling chassis will be for the winners race class only.
Thanks to IKD for their generous support. Check out their range of karts, parts and accessories at www.internationalkarting.com.au
Your opportunity to be rewarded for lap consistency
Up for grabs is $50 for every driver who gets a ‘Triple’! If you can achieve three identical lap times in consecutive order during an official GSKC race in 2024, as measured on Speed Hive, the Club will reward your consistency with $50. So let’s get after chasing a ‘Triple’!
