Archerville Raceway
About Archerville Raceway
Archerville Raceway is the physical karting venue associated with Launceston Kart Club. Launceston Kart Club is an active Karting Tasmania owner-driver club at Archerville Raceway, 195 Pipers River Road, Turners Marsh. The current clubs page publishes a clockwise circuit, licensed density of 30 and length of 775 m, while an official 2025 event’s supplementary regulations recorded 755 m. Because those two official values differ, this guide does not silently choose one as universally correct; entrants should use the approved regulations for their event. The 2026 calendar confirms continuing club and feature racing.
