Thanks to the hard working volunteers that helped with our Come N Try day.

Our next club day is June 26th - and we hope to see some brand new members there!

Ballarat Kart Club has today been awarded $231,000 as part of the state government Community Motorsport Program.
The grant will allow the club to develop the current site to improve the racetrack and pit area increasing grid capacity, participation and spectator viewing.
Ballarat Kart club committee has been working together to align the future of the club, implementing participation activities such as Come & Try Karts along with on and off-track activities to be a club of choice that supports new members in karting.

Key Project Notes:
107m of track extension
Exciting and innovative layout – rationalised to make best use of available land
Increased grid capacity from 24 to at least 28
3 new passing opportunities
Multiple configurations including Historic and Long
Combined in grid and out grid for better use of pit space
Better spectating area
