Seth hall, driving his KT, won the feature race at the Eastland Kart Club's points meeting on Sunday.

Six different drivers have won the six feature races so far this season — an indication of how keenly contested this all-in, end-of-meeting event has been.

After 10 hot laps on Sunday, Hall was first, Harley Davis second, Robert De La Haye third and Hayley De La Haye fourth.

The first five winners of the feature race were Harley Davis, Vinzent MacGregor, Ben Briant, Robert De La Haye and Luca Vita.

Sean Gooch recorded the fastest lap of the day on Sunday, in the 13-kart feature. His time was 19.785 seconds.

The track held up well. Organisers did not have to water it more than a couple of times, as it held moisture from the rain during the week, which made for a fast track.

In the rookies class, Nixen Gooch came away with three wins and Pyper Irvine had three second placings.

The young guns class had Brodie Gooch winning all three races. Logan Irvine had two seconds and a third.

In the Rotax pro class, Sean Gooch picked up two wins and a third placing.

Harley Davis got the other win, plus one second placing and one third. Fast Luca Vita had two seconds and a third.

Barry Irvine won two races in the KT heavies class, and had a second as well.

Dion Lund took the other win, as well as a second placing and a third.

Fred Winterton collected a second and a third, while Buck Rogers got a third placing.

The KT lights turned on some great racing, wins going to Robert De La Haye, Daniel Taylor and Luca Vita.
