ABOUT US
The Cooloola Coast Kart Club (CCKC) was originally founded in 1997. Through the hard work of founding members Mal Bunt, Greg Ryan, Steve Hill, Bruce Dummit, Col Leavey, and Richard, our first
race meet was held on the Gympie Gold track, located at 10 Runge Road Glanmire, on the 12th November 2006.
Located within the Gympie Regional Council, CCKC is a non-profit incorporated organisation, governed by a committee of volunteer club members and affiliated with Karting Australia. Over the years, our membership has grown from just 20 drivers to currently 160 karters and their families. Our members come from communities throughout Southeast Queensland, including Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gympie, and surrounding areas.
CCKC has a great reputation of hosting organised events with a friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. This is due to the dedication of our members, who work together to plan the details of every race meet. We also have a great team of officials that travel to our club from different locations within SE Queensland.
Located just 35 minutes’ drive north of Noosa and 6km from Gympie CBD, accommodation is readily available for race weekends, and camping is also available at the track.
Come and check us out! You will be glad you did.
4SS - 4 STROKE SPRINT
In 2018 Karting Australia introduced the 4SS class into both Junior and Senior competition. It now also includes Cadets. Using a factory sealed engine from Torini, on a chassis fitted with hard compound tyres, the kart requires very little maintenance. Competitors can literally use it on a race weekend, or practice day, put it in the garage and use it again in a couple of weeks without encountering problems or the need for major maintenance.
Here at Cooloola Coast Kart Club, we have a great group of both Junior and Senior 4SS racers and our Cadet 4SS class is growing. On race weekends, we offer the following 4SS classes:
· 4SS Cadet
· 4SS Junior
· 4SS Senior Light, Medium and Heavy
· 4SS Supermaxx Light, Medium, and Heavy
4SS is a great way to get involved in kart racing at an affordable cost. More information about this class can be found under our Getting Started tab or contact the club with any questions you may have. We are always willing and happy to help you get started on your karting adventure!
