Another local driver to set the pace in his respective class of KF2 was reigning South Australian Champion Josh Tynan.  The Energy Corse Australia driver was three-tenths of his nearest rival across the five practice sessions throughout the day.

In the X30 class it was the Victorian siblings of Leigh and Jordan Nicolaou who will lead the field out for qualifying tomorrow after setting the fastest and second fastest times respectively during practice today.

Justin Francis was the pacesetter in KA1 while Bradley Jenner stopped the clocks the quickest in the KA TaG class.

Tomorrow’s action will begin with practice for the three underage classes – KA12, KA Junior and KF3 – ahead of qualifying and the opening two rounds of heat races.

The finals, that double as the 2015 South Australian Championships for the respective eight classes, will be contested on Sunday.

A preview show will be streamed across the internet on Saturday night ahead of Sunday’s action being streamed live on karting.net.au
