Just an advanced notice to let you all know that we're going to have our official opening of our club facility on Saturday 15/10 and we hope folk can make time to come and join us for the event.
A more "Official" invite with the details of the day etc will follow but our broad plans are to have a free BBQ lunch and the opening to follow and then some Blokart racing/demos. There will be camping on site if folk want to stay and play!!!!

Sounds great! Hardly a hop, step and a jump over there. You can count me in

We're now officially open and our seasons sailing underway!!! Its great what 12/15 knots can do for the soul!!!
Our next Karting weekend is on 6/11 for those who can't get to the Vic. States at Sandy Point.

Great to have lachlan3556 come over and have a few squirts on the club Blowies.

Some shots from the day.

It was good day over at the NEW HQ, also had a bit of wind to have a sail. Jumped in a Blokart for a few laps and a crash


That said, pity I didn't hold up my end of the bargain and have my mini going. See checklist below:

Wheels
Axles
Steering shaft + fork assembly
Foot pedals
Main chassis + seat
Backrest
Boom
Sails
Sheet + blocks/pulleys
Helmet

Thats all I need right

Hills wins! Packed the red mini, camp gear, and forgot the mast. It was still sitting on my hilux roofrack

My contribution to the event = three wheeled billy cart

I got a few pics as well.







EDIT: Let me know if the images are too big and I'll resize.
