The History Of The
Adelaide Dirt Kart Club inc
The Adelaide Dirt Kart
Club inc, first started out back in 1980 under the name of
Noarlunga Kart Club.
In early 1985 a
local motor sporting club invited the club to use their track
facilities at Lonsdale, South of Adelaide.
Interest soon grew
and the local council allocated a site on the old Lonsdale dump site.
Construction of a
track at Lonsdale began in 1985.
Due to the rapid
development of the Hallet Cove residential sites in 1986, the council
asked the club to relocate.
In march 1986
the club secured a new site at the Speed Kart complex, (later kart
mania) located on waterloo corner road Burton.
September 1987
brought a club name change. Now to be known as the Adelaide Dirt Kart
Club inc.
18 years later in
2004 the track site changed ownership and the leasing arrangements
changed and with the site needing to be redeveloped the ADKC needed to
find a new home.
October 2004 brought
a club decision to accept an offer to once again relocate, this time
an exciting location was found right in the heart of Motorsport
territory.
Speedway City,
Virginia South Australia, is now the home of the Adelaide Dirt Kart
Club inc located between Speedway City, and Adelaide International
Raceway.
2007 is an exciting
time for the Adelaide Dirt Kart Club inc, as the club looks to
re-establish itself as the premier dirt kart club in Australia.
February 2005 saw
the 1st race meeting occur at the new location.
January 2009 the clubrooms are re-opened again, 4 yrs on from 2005,
Power, Toilets, Shelters & Sheds are all complete.
Adelaide's "" RE-ESTABLISHED"" bigger, better & membership is
stronger
