A big congrats to every karter involved; the driving standard was really high for very difficult conditions.
Huge thanks go out to all our officials and volunteers, there was a lot of work to make this weekend happen and quiet a few things went a bit wrong.

You can view the full results on speedhive, and we will have some photos to share over the next few days.

Everyone is itching to get racing again and we have a mega turnout for this Sunday!

We have a brand new Canteen POS for card sales, and you can also buy some 2021 VCS merch along with your hot chips.

Covid QR codes can be found at the Canteen, at the Out grid and the Toilets, so make sure you scan in as soon as you get to the track.
