Results 2010 Australian Open

2010 Australian Open 

Another excellent blokart event with 82 karts registered to race over 2 Classes and 7 weight categories, we had competitors from NZ, WA, VIC, NSW & QLD.
It was fantastic to meet up with many old and new faces, there’s just something about being involved with such a great community of people that this sport brings together.
 

Friday 26th saw introductions and briefing out of the way by 9.30am and racing starting at 10.30, everybody was hyped and rearing to go, with the wind at a healthy 15 + knots the sail choice was between 3 & 4m, we saw the odd 5.5m sail brought out but at times this proved to be a bit of a handful, a decision was made not to run a marathon and continue to sail the short course for the rest of the day ( excellent decision considering the good wind conditions we had ) we were all cleaned up and off the beach by 5pm  ...

8am Saturday morning in the convention room was tech talk time hosted by Paul Beckett, the room was full with a good number of sailors hoping to gain some inside knowledge from the GURU, excellent talk thanks Paul, I’m sure many would have taken away your handy hints on maintenance and sailing.

Day 2 Racing started 11am and with the previous day’s results posted many sailors were cautious of their placing, the conditions were a little lighter than the day before with sail choices ranging between 4m and 5.5m, the 4m’s definitely had it running up wind but the 5.5’s had the power down wind, this made for some interesting races.By 4pm the wind had picked up to a healthy 15knots just in time for the 15km marathon, 40 plus Production karts took off first followed 2 minutes later by 40 Performance kart, WOW what a sight, 80 blokarts racing down the beach to a marker and back, some good speeds were reached during an excellent marathon.Saturday evening saw 148 plus for dinner in the Palms room at the Resort, a beautiful meal with a fear bit of fun and laughter throughout the evening, great to see that Andy B from WA win the Raffle, a few good words said and I’m sure Danny H will never loose his plate again!! 

Sunday had briefing out of the way by 9.30 and racing start at 11am, the wind started completely down the beach but by the time we had completed 2 races it had swung to onshore, delighting a number of sailors who found tacking to be there worst enemy, 4m sails were in full use and we managed to push through 3 rounds of races and another excellent marathon before heading up for prize giving. Prize giving saw a good spread of trophy’s throughout the states and across the ditch with Queensland seemingly picking up the most overall, Well done to everyone who competed and thank you to all that helped put the event together

A huge Congratulations to the Central Qld blokart Club for hosting an extremely well run event
