Loeskow won the KZ2 final from pole position in his Ricciardo Kart, managing his lead over Daniel Price to the finish.

Macauley Jones recovered from the turn 1 incident to finish fifth, while Brad Jones Racing stablemate Nick Percat ended up 19th and and GRM driver James Golding 28th.

Matthews gave Ricciardo Karts victory in KA1 as well, taking a comfortable victory over Scott Sorensen.

In KA2, defending Australian champion Jack Doohan took the victory after passing long-time leader Broc Feeney with just two laps remaining.

KA3 Senior went down to the wire with Leigh Nicolaou edging Matthew McLean by 0.1s after McLean closed in late in the race.

Joshua Car won the TaG 125 final, Morgan Feast won X30, Kai Allen won KA4 Junior, Cadel Ambrose won Cadet 9, and James Wharton won Cadet 12.
