North wins high points karting championship

There was a smaller than usual turnout for the final karting races of the year as first place was locked up in the four classes.

Jason North, Scott Barnes, David Brewster and Stephen Corrado all lifted Class titles.

North took the overall championship points title by amassing 853 points in the competitive TAG Class.

Bermuda Karting Club president North said: “Overall, the season was a success for most that participated, and I am happy with the increase of interest in the sport.

“I foresee some good things in the near future with karting in Bermuda, and hope that we can continue to grow upon this past year.

“We are looking at the option of a couple races during the summer months but I am waiting to see the amount of interest from the drivers, as it seems to be a time for vacations and travel for many of them.”
