Adam Lindstrom made a great debut in the DD2 category aboard his Formula K chassis, finishing a very close 2nd place to previous Vice-World champion Jason Pringle.

Callum Walker did an outstanding job in Junior MAX to climb from P11 starting position in the final to finish 4th. Along the way he set the fastest lap in both pre final and final.

The great results from the weekend's meeting lift Formula K kart to 2nd overall in the Manufacturers' Cup in the Pro Tour series.

"To be sitting second in the Manufacturers' Cup is really a credit to all our drivers for doing an outstanding job for the Formula K brand. I think now we have shown people that we are a true brand in Australia and not a half hearted one. People know we can mix it with the best brands on Australian soil and win. We are all looking forward to a great 2013 season competing in the Rotax Pro Tour series."
