There was a good mix of local and out of town drivers for the State Championship Shakedown, giving the drivers that turned out a good chance to fine tune their karts before this coming weekends South Australian Karting State Titles.

Jett Zerk in Cadet 9 took a clean sweep with Jarvis and Lucinda Jones having a good battle for second and third.

In KA4 Junior Light, Brayden Stewart won every race to take the win. Cadence Florentinus came second and Rhys Bartlett finished third.
