Ultimate Karting Sydney

On Friday, 31 May, Hodges House went to Ultimate Go-Karting in Smeaton Grange. This thrilling karting track was held in an indoor centre with a state of the art super grip track.

Hodges House caught a bus from outside Blue Street which took us to the venue. As we arrived, we had a safety debrief and then we were spilt up into three different groups across all years. These groups were used for our time trail race. When I first got into the kart, I felt nervous but after my first lap, I slowly got the hang of it, cruising past Mr Fitch. After that race, we got spilt up into three new different groups according to our fastest lap time in the first race.

Tom Scott (11HS) winning the slowest heat, Lachlan Caldwell (12HS) winning the middle race and Will Austin (11HS) coming home with the gold medal in the fastest final, closely followed by Mr Fitch.

Overall the night was an amazing experience and wouldn’t have happened without Mr Fitch and Mr Davis. I believe everyone in the House greatly appreciated them organising this for us.
