Junior Development Camp and Twilight Round 1 Weekend Recap 21-22 Feb 2026

What a weekend. Incredible effort from every driver and real improvement across the board with some participants shaving up to 6 seconds off their times.
A huge thank you to Paul from Elite Driving Academy and his team for the amazing coaching and effort that you put into this sport as a whole, not just today but every day, our officials for keeping everything running smoothly, and all families for the support and energy you brought to Sapphire Coast Kart Club. And most all, to Lyndall in the Canteen who kept us fuelled for the weekend! That lasagna dinner was divine!!!
