Slippery Day at Gippsland

The day started wet, but most of the racing was in the dry at Gippsland Go Kart Club’s May race day on Sunday.

Next month the club plans to run an extra race for each class, ie four heat races then a final (but all points count for the day’s result) – well worth getting along to if you want lots of races for the day!
