A TEAM from Falls Road Primary School has won the 10th annual Lesmurdie Le Mans.

The team called Hot Dogs made it through the heats and knockout stage of the go-cart championship last Friday to beat three other teams in the final race at the Falls Road school.

The competition involved Year 6 students from Kalamunda, Lesmurdie, Walliston and Falls Road primary schools.

Twenty teams worked with teachers and some fathers to produce five go-carts per school.

Fifty metres of bunting defined the track and kept back the cheering Falls Road students.

Pit crews from each school team were on standby, modifying and tweaking the go-carts between each race.

Prizes of gift vouchers for the winning schools were donated by Bunnings Kalamunda, which also put on a sausage sizzle.

The go-carts will be dismantled, with materials recycled for next year’s classes.
