The weekend saw 110 entries across 12 classes at the Kalgoorlie circuit to battle it out for the points available in the championship.
The EGKC had great support from their members preceding the event to have the facility in tip top shape for our visiting guests.
Three heats on Saturday with one under lights and two heats on Sunday morning.
The racing was sensational and the points at the end of the meeting were very close in some classes.
Two state champions made the trip Lewis Sutherland (junior clubman) & Jake Klarich (rookie) and both won their respective classes, several juniors ran multiple classes especially young Adam Marjoram racing three all weekend, that is a big ask from the driver and support crew, Adam had success winning one and finishing second in the other two.
