all members informed of meeting details, race dates and results, social
events and fund-raisers, advertisements etc.
Racing members are
able to compete against each other at organized Club Race Days which are
held on the last Sunday of every month (except December). At these
meetings similar weight members race against each other accumulating
points to try to win trophies. which are presented at the conclusion of
the day, these points are tallied up at the end of the year and the highest
point scorer is awarded the title of overall club champion
The Club, through the State run Victorian Karting Association, (VKA), is allocated up to three Open Race Meetings per year. This gives Club members a chance to compete with karters from throughout Victoria on their home track. Of course the states other Clubs run these Open meetings as well, giving South West members a chance to race on other tracks. Karters at these Open meetings race against each other, accumulating points to try to win trophies and prizes.
