🏁 COMBINED DISTRICTS KART CLUB – ROUND 3 CHAMPIONSHIP
Race #15 of 2026
BRP Motorsports travelled to Lithgow for Round 3 of the Combined Districts Kart Club Championship, with Chayse entering the weekend as the championship leader in the Cadet 12 Rookies class.
Also featured on the program was the highly anticipated 50 Lap Classic, a unique endurance-style race where the Rookies start ahead of the Novice field and must work their way through traffic, lap the Novice competitors, and battle their fellow Rookies to return to the front of the field.
📍 Lithgow, NSW
🏎️ Chayse Attard – Cadet 12 Rookies
Saturday Practice
Chayse immediately stamped his authority on the weekend, setting the fastest time in 4 of the 5 practice sessions he contested, despite eight sessions being available throughout Saturday.
Sunday Results
🟣 Qualifying: 1st / 17
🟣 Heat 1: 1st ➡️ 1st
🟣 Heat 2: 1st ➡️ 1st
🟣 Heat 3: 1st ➡️ 1st
🟣 Final: 1st ➡️ 1st 🏆🏁
A flawless performance saw Chayse dominate every competitive session, converting pole position into a perfect clean sweep and extending his championship lead in commanding fashion.
🔥 50 Lap Classic
With the grid reversed from the final results, Chayse lined up 25th for the feature race.
What followed was one of the drives of the day.
Carving his way through the field, Chayse passed every Rookie competitor and expertly navigated the slower Novice traffic. By the closing stages he had charged all the way to 2nd position and was rapidly closing on the race leader.
With just 14 laps remaining, and while preparing to make a move for the lead, disaster struck. A rare muffler failure resulted in a Mechanical Meatball Flag, forcing Chayse to retire from the race.
While the result wasn’t what the team deserved, the performance certainly was. Chayse still recorded the fastest lap of the race, meaning he was the quickest driver on track in every session he competed in throughout Sunday.
A dominant championship round, a perfect sweep of the Cadet 12 Rookies category, and a stunning comeback drive in the 50 Lap Classic that unfortunately ended in heartbreak.
The future continues to look bright for BRP Motorsports.
