Changeable conditions for Round 4

As with previous rounds to support social distancing the meeting was again held over two days. The youngsters on Saturday and seniors on Sunday.

Indifferent weather conditions over the two days kept the tyre selection a premium consideration for the drivers. Feature trophies for the weekend were the Bambino Trophy and Granville Grubb Memorial Trophy for KZ (gearbox class). This was also the final of the two round Northern Challenge with Round 1 held two weeks earlier by North of Scotland Kart Club in Golspie.

Stand out highlights over the weekend included the delight that Ryan White showed on learning that he had won the Bambino Trophy. Ally Smith in KZ (gearbox class) winning the Granville Grubb Memorial Trophy for the fourth time.
