Tamworth is centrally
located in the northern zone being within approximately 3.5 hours drive from
many clubs.
Our track is challenging, providing a good
balance of straights and different degrees of corners.
We have secure camping within the track complex
with toilets and hot showers in the clubhouse.
Our clubhouse is large and modern. We have a well
serviced canteen, first aid room, race secretary’s office, steward’s room and
a club room that can hold a large group of people (up to 75 for a sit down
dinner).
While the number of club members is not large, we
are enthusiastic and passionate about karting. Our largest race meeting to
date was the 2010 NSW State Titles 1st, 2nd & 3rd
October, with 284 entrants. Our two Major Race Meetings each year are the
Brian Higginbotham Trophy and the Alan Cox Cup.
Saturday 18th February 2012, Twilight Meeting

NSW KARTING ICON FAREWELLED
An icon of New South Wales
karting, Alan Cox, was farewelled in Tamworth
earlier this week.
Sadly Alan Cox passed away on Monday, May 9, at the age of 89.
Mr. Cox joined the Tamworth Kart Racing Club in 1963 and while he never
actually raced, his contribution to the sport in country New South Wales was simply amazing.
During his association with karting, Alan held every position on the
committee of the Tamworth Kart Racing Club and was awarded life membership
of the club in 1985.
The club’s blue ribbon event was named after Mr. Cox during the 1990s and
has since become one of the largest race meetings in the region. This
year’s Alan Cox Cup, to be held on August 27/28 will also incorporate the
celebration of 50 years of karting in Tamworth.
“Alan was instrumental right from the formative years of the Tamworth Kart
Racing Club through until only a few years ago, we will forever be indebted
for the dedication he showed towards the club and the sport of karting,”
said Tamworth Kart Racing Club President Tom Sanderson.
