18.01.2022 Well what a weekend, plenty of fun and a mixed bag of weather made for an eventful meet. Plenty of on track incidents, clean racing but mainly a good ti...me had by all. The canteen staff got a lot of love from the podium speeches and rightly so the feast they put on for Saturday night was fit for a king At BKC we pride oursleves on being a family club, all getting stuck in to get things done and a lot of that work often goes unseen but is important in putting together an event like this, so we’d like to say a massive thank you to all of our volunteers who made this event possible. For all of you who came, thank you, we really appreciate the effort and time many of you took to come and support us, we sincerely hope you had fun, despite the weather and if you did, spread the love as we hope to make the event bigger and better. If you like what you see and wanted to get involved in go karting, message us to see how you can, you won’t look back! Here’s to the next one, enjoy... #4ssinvasion #bkc #bundaberg #kartinglife #kartingqld #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #familyclub
