MICHAEL AVANSINO JAKE DREW Vemme Kart USA Senior Rok Saturday Report The Senior Rok division looked to belong to Hannah Greenemeier. The Senior rookie arrived Friday morning and was quickest by the end of the day. The RPG / Kosmic driver continued her reign at the front, setting fast time in qualifying and leading all laps of the Prefinal. Hannah continued as the leader early in the Final, getting pressure from CalSpeed double winner Jake Drew (PGR / Ricciardo). Lap eight, Greenemeier came out of toe-tac-tic section, losing a chain and ending her chance at the victory. The fight for the victory now became a battle of four drivers, including Drew, Ryan Tate (FA Kart), Michael Avansino (FA Kart) and Bijoy Garg (SSM / Exprit). All but Tate took a turn at the point with some great rac- ing, that ended with Garg securing the lead with a few laps remaining, breaking away enough to be unchallenged for the victory in his Senior debut. Drew won the fight to the line for second ahead of Avansino with point leader Jim McKinney (Ruthless / FA Kart) sneaking up to fourth in the late goings ahead of Tate. For McKinney, his results helped to clinch the provisional championship with one round remaining.
