2024 Australian Title Results

2024 Australian Title Results

Nov 29, 2024

The 2024 Australian Dirt Kart Titles hosted by Lucindale Karting Club have now been run and won. Mother Nature certainly threw plenty of challenges our way throughout the entire event. CONGRATULATIONS to the Lucindale Karting Club for a very well organised meeting. A huge THANK YOU to all the officials and volunteers! We appreciate the time and effort you put into running this event! Simply put, we cannot run these events without you. SPECIAL MENTION must go to the Lucindale Karting Club Track Crew for all their hard work and efforts with the track.  CONGRATULATIONS to all the competitors especially those who manage to be standing on the podium at the completion of the weekend. AIDKA would like to acknowledge some of the provisional placings awarded on the Ingrid at the 2024 Australian Dirt Kart Titles were made in error, where some competitors tied on overall points. This affected the Outlaws, KT Mediums, Junior Lights, 125 Lights, KT Heavy and 200 Open classes. The results were reviewed, and then placed on the results board at the event. Therefore the placings supplied and read out at presentations were correct. However, as some drivers where not advised of the corrected placings prior, we acknowledge this caused some angst on the podium. AIDKA is deeply sorry for the events that took place and the upset the awarding of incorrect placings has caused. AIDKA is aware of the distress this has brought upon those affected and the impact on our sport. This is something AIDKA does not take lightly. AIDKA is committed to making the necessary changes to prevent similar issues in the future. Our apologies for the delay in publishing the Final Results.
