17.01.2022 It is with great sadness that the club has lost one of it's long time supporters in Ron Osbourne. Ron was a constant supporter and spectator over many years at the Portland Karting Club, where he presented the annual 'Ron Osbourne most improved driver award'. There will be a grave side service at the Portland cemetery on Friday the 29th Jan at 2pm. R.I.P. Ron.

11.01.2022 to and - - FROM KARTING AUSTRALIA - During the past 12 months, there has been significant discussion from the karting industry and some competitors regarding the parity between engines in the TaG 125 and TaG 125 Restricted Classes.... The data obtained from the recently introduced electronic Scrutineering Records, when matched with the official results from official timing system have provided Karting Australia with the ability to better assess the parity within these Classes. Based on our analysis of this data, we believe that parity adjustments are warranted for both TaG 125 and TaG 125 Restricted Classes. For States that have Combined Classes such as Victorian Combined and SA Combined in their State Regulations, the adjustments for the minimum weights in these classes will be decided by the State Associations through the normal process and included in their State Regulations. - 23, 2020 3kg reduction to the combined Driver and Kart weight for all engines OTHER than the Rotax 125 engine. 1kg reduction to the combined Driver and Kart weight for X30 engine powered Karts 3kg increase to the combined Driver and Kart weight for Rotax 125 engine powered Karts 1) TaG 125 Restricted Light: a. Rotax 167kg b. All other engines: 159kg 2) TaG 125 Restricted Medium: a. Rotax 187kg b. All other engines: 179kg 3) TaG 125 Restricted Heavy*: (Unless otherwise specified in State Regulations) a.
