Empire Karts Micro Rok Saturday Report
Three rounds, three new winners at the Challenge in the Empire Karts Micro ROK. Contact in the main event on lap four narrowed the field from seven to four with Round One winner Jaxon Porter (Ruthless / Ni- tro Kart) ahead of Rhys Bowman (FDM / CompKart). Top qualifier Troy Ferguson (Benik) ended the Prefinal in the wall after battling with Porter, and after starting last, was able to run down the top-two. Ferguson was challenging Porter until Bowman picked up the pace. Bowman went from third to first in a couple laps. On the final circuit, the trio jostled around for position and coming out of the final corner, Bowman came out with the lead and the victory. Ferguson ended up second with Porter in third. Braylon Underwood (Race Factory) was the last kart running in fourth with Round Two winner Ashton Woon (Nitro Kart) recorded as the fifth-place finisher.
