Clubman Super Heavy driver Starr Kopa finished in second place at AKRA’s most recent race meeting at Wollongong, the fifth round of the club championship.
However, a week prior, Kopa’s kart had split in two, the main chassis rails cracked and finally breaking in two at exactly the same point. The only things connecting the front and back halves were the sidepod bars, brake line and throttle cable!
Rolly Boldy sleeved and welded a repair in the leadup to race day, allowing Kopa to not only race, but take home a trophy.
