Description
Go cart racing is becoming an increasingly popular sport for soldiers at the 1st Australian Task Force Base. Using machines built by the Diggers from salvaged engines and scrap metal, race meetings are organised on a dirt track near the perimeter wire as often as operational requirements allow. In the lead cart is Craftsman Darryl 'Jack' Horner, 22, from Brooklyn Park, SA, and in the second cart is Corporal Bob Malone, 22, from Red Hill, Vic, both soldiers of the 106th Field Workshop.
