Troy Hunt, from Top Gun Racing in Sydney, gives nine-year-old Wollongbar kart racer Kaleb Veal some advice during his visit to Lismore kart track.
YOUNG Kaleb Veal, of Wollongbar, will take with him lessons learnt from one of karting’s finest.
Troy Hunt, from Top Gun Racing, visited Lismore last week to take Kaleb and The Channon youngster Ryley Adams through the finer points of the motor sport.
The visit was organised by the Lismore Kart Club.
Kaleb, 9, has been racing karts for only six months.
“Troy explained how to take a corner, speed, when to brake and accelerate,” Kaleb’s grandmother Diana Smith said.
“We found it very beneficial. Kaleb learnt a lot.”
The Lismore Kart Club’s next race meeting is Vic Minarelli Memorial Day for twin-engined high horsepower (200cc) karts next weekend. Vic Minarelli was prominent in the club for many years and a former president.
The State championships will be held at Tamworth in October.
