Silly thing is i didn't take my camera on Saturay and missed taking a few other Karts that were there like a Yellow Victa Kart called i think Hot Rod and the fella who disigned it was in attendance only made one hundred of them where were the other 99 ?
Anyway this yellow Hotrod suffered a piston failure and didn't reappear on Sunday so no pic sorry fellas.
Plus one of the fellas had a fair bit of printed early history of Karting in Australia on display but i have his card for further contact.

Allan when you read the above you might fill the fellas in on the types of Australian Karts pictured.
