Hi all, just trying to generate some last minute interest in the Qld Dirt track titles, have a read!
April 30, May 1&2 will see the return of the Queensland State Dirt Track Titles to the AKA calendar at Mount Isa, located in North West Queensland will hold the titles for the first time since 2002 when over 70 karters took to the 466m sealed dirt track (a compounded dirt oil surface with concrete corners).
Keeping to the traditional format, 5 "heat" races will be held with equal weighting to determine the 2010 state title winners. Racing is to the AKA Manual with the following classes being contested:
Midgets Rookies Junior National Light
Junior National Heavy Clubman Light Clubman Heavy
Clubman Super Heavy Senior National Light Senior National Heavy
TAG 100 (Support Class)
There will be prizes and also random draw giveaways. The event has attractive low nomination fees of only $80 for first kart entrants. With no tyre pooling, this event provides the best track time per dollar state title on the 2010 calendar. Trophies will be awarded for 1st to 5th for all junior categories, 1st to 3rd for senior categories with blue plates to the winners.

Matt please say hello to your father and uncle for me. Is your grandfather still alive. If he is you have 3 Great Blokes to help you out in all aspects of motor sports. It is a small world as The Ebzery Boys have there young fellas racing karts as well. Once all the best to everyone attending the Titles. Mick
Congratulations to the Mt Isa club on re-inventing the Qld Dirt Track Championships. It will be great to again see a few Blue plates on dirt track race karts within Qld again.
To the club & the committee best of luck and hope it goes well (who knows maybe we can try for the dirt nationals again soon).

Five Cairns drivers travelled out to Isa and competed and had a ball. Lydon Dodge 1st CL, Matthew Foster 5th CL, Andrew Lane 4th CH, Mark Ezzy 3rd TAG100, Tina Ezzy 2nd JNH, John Underwood 4th JNL. Great hospitality and people. Well done Mount Isa Club.

Thanks heaps for the comment Annette, it was great to have the Cairns Club support our event.
I'll try and put some photo's up when I get a chance.
Good luck for the State Titles in Mackay.

It was a good meeting, the Isa club certainly put a lot of effort into it, the track and surrounds looked great. Congrats to all the drivers who competed, great racing and to all the volunteers who worked hard over the week-end.
Regards,
Mark
