CAPE KARTERS DOMINATE AT KILLARNEY
CAPE KARTERS DOMINATE AT KILLARNEY
It was also a historic day for karting with the event being the first kart race ever to be live streamed on the Internet, while the day once again proved that Cape karters are enjoying a purple patch with local drivers taking sixteen wins from 24 races and overall honours in four of the eight classes.
Cape drivers all but dominated the Rotax Max Challenge classes, with local lad Dino Stermin (Designer Trims RKT Kosmic) overcoming hometown rival Delano Fowler (Suprocom Tony Kart) two races to one in 125cc high school age Junior Max. Stermin both times passed Fowler in dramatic on-track moves to take his maiden national victory. Joshua Dias (Top Glass/Selepe Birel), Jason Coetzee (RKT Kosmic and Giordano Lupini (AutoWeek CRG) shared out the third places, with Dias, Coetzee. Delon Thompson (A&I Birel) and Sebastian Boyd (Boyd Freight Kosmic) round off the overall top six.
The Killarney national proved a brilliant day's racing that once again saw local drivers taking the lion's share of the laurels. Now let's see if that can continue their winning ways in the SA National Karting Championship that now moves to the challenging iDube Raceway in the KZN Midlands for the next round early in July.
