Scooter racing hits QLD

Paul Hallet

 
Scooters have moved onto the racetrack with the motorcycle sportsmen of Queensland promoting scooter racing classes at the Ipswich Kart track, Willowbank. The recent boost in scooter sales throughout southeast Queensland has prompted the club to offer scooter owners the opportunity to ride their scooter on a race track and compete in scooter racing.
 
Practice nights on the 1080m bitumen kart track are held twice a month on the first and third Wednesday nights from 4pm to 10pm. The cost is $70 including a Motorcycling Australia recreational license.
 
Club member and scooter racer Paul Hallett said “This is a great opportunity for scooter owners to get out onto the race track. You can have loads of fun and compete with your mates in a safe environment, there are no cars and no obstacles and best of all no speed limits”
 
Race coaching by qualified motorcycle road race coaches is available free on either of the practice nights. The completion classes for racing are scooter 50cc and scooter +50 cc up to 250cc
