*Attention Members*
The track has now been restored to its normal anti clockwise direction. ALL practice must been done in the standard configuration, so when you leave the out grid you continue up the main straight as normal.
A whopping 10 lap records were set at the 3rd round of the Festival State Cup on Sunday the 16th. This was the first time for quite some time Southern has run its circuit in reverse and the following 10 drivers made the most of it smashing out some impressive times.

Over the weekend (16/06) SGKC hosted the 3rd round of the Festival State Cup and unfortunately an error has come to our attention. Podium places in two classes were incorrectly issued at presentation. Competitors effected have been contacted and an apology and explanation given. The error is now resolved and FSC series points have been corrected to reflect this.
So what happened? Put simply, it was human error. When tallying the overall points for the day, two check boxes in two classes where not selected therefore the ‘final’ was not counted towards the total points for these classes which negatively effected podium positions and FSC points.
We strive to ensure mistakes are minimal especially when those mistakes effect results, not only for the days placings but towards series points. Please understand that each and every person that help run these meetings volunteers their time, race days are long and can be extremely hectic behind the scenes. Sometimes these things happen.
Fortunately we came across this error quickly, rectified it and all competitors involved have been very understanding. Results from each class have been double checked so rest assured all class results and subsequent FSC points are correct. So again, apologies to those effected by this and we’ll do our utmost to make sure this doesn’t happen again.
Many have asked.
Many have wondered.
When can we practice at Southern in reverse direction?
Well the wait is ALMOST over!
Friday the 7th will see the track begin to be setup for reverse direction racing. At 4pm on Friday we will be looking for anyone who has some time to spare to help the committee members of Southern begin moving tyre barriers. The more help we get the quicker it gets done and the sooner you get on the track. Also this means the track will be closed from this time.
If the work is not complete on Friday afternoon then the track will remain CLOSED until work is finalised as we can’t have anyone on track with tyre barriers not in their correct locations. You know, safety and all that.
All going well, Saturday the 8th will see the track operating in reverse direction BUT we need all the help we can get to make that happen. If you’re one of the many who have been keen to get out and practice then please get down to the track Friday afternoon and give us a hand.
We’ll be sure to keep everyone updated here on Facebook on Friday regarding progress and for the official confirmation that practice can commence.
The supp regs for the third round of the Festival State Cup have been approved…and this round will be run in reverse direction 🏎️👈◀️⬅️🔙⏪⏮️
***Club President Special Comment***
ABSOLUTELY NO REVERSE PRACTICE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!
There is still some work to do to ready the track for reverse direction racing so until further notice it will remain in it’s current configuration/direction.
Once the work is finalised and the track has been switched we will notify you right here on Facebook and members will be free to practice in reverse.

MULTIPLE TRACK CLOSURES
The track will be closed this Saturday (6th) for the Junior Sprockets program but should reopen to members at around 3.30pm if you want to get a quick squirt in.
A full day track closure will occur on the Sunday (7th) as the track has been hired out by Track Motards Adelaide. If you have some time on Sunday get along and check out some 2 wheeled action.
Lastly (and definitely the most boring) there will be half day track closure on Tuesday the 9th. SA Power will be doing works which will effect the operation of our access gate. You might get in…but you might not get out 😁 Track will be back to normal operation after 12pm.
There are still 7 spots remaining for the Junior Sprockets program be held at SGKC this Saturday. Get your registrations in as soon as possible because once these spots are gone they’re gone!
