The Cadet classes picked up a new driver, Tahj O’Reilly having his first race and placing third in Cadet 9, which was won by Bantick. Corey O’Brien won the Cadet 12 division for the second event in a row.

Ten drivers contested the KA3 Senior class. Despite lots of close, hard racing through the field, Popple and Wicks popped up in P1 in every race in the Light and Heavy divisions respectively.
