The KZ2 class specialist, who drives for the Auckland-based Mad Croc team, made the trip worthwhile too, qualifying sixth and claiming a best heat finish of fifth before finishing eighth in the Final.
The result was that he has moved up in the series' KZ2 points standings, from ninth after the first round to seventh, just eight points behind sixth placed Daniel Price and only a further four away from Christopher Hays and Troy Loeskow who are currently tied for third.
With no other major clashes Grant is expected to be re-joined by at least two other Kiwi karters at subsequent rounds of this year's five-round Australian championship.
