Ruthless Karting Junior Rok Saturday Report Things were decided on and off the track in the Junior Rok division. On track, Austin and Ashton Torgerson stepped up their game to challenge point leader Ugo Ugochukwu. The trio were separated by just 49 thou- sandths on qualifying with Ugo (Tony Kart) scoring the pole position over Ashton and Austin. Ugo led the majority of the Prefinal till Austin secured the spot late and the race win. The trio locked up early and got away from the rest of the field in the Final. The Torgerson brothers were locked up, with Ashton pushing Austin most of the race. Ugo slipped past Ashton on the final lap but contact allowed Austin to get away and reach the check- ered flag first. Officials however penalized Austin for contact early in the race with Ugo, thus promoting Ugo to the victory. The win gives Ugo the provisional championship heading into the season finale. Ashton was classified second with Austin third. Ethan Ho (Redspeed) drove to fourth with Bryson Lew (Tony Kart) in fifth. AUSTIN TORGERSON ASHTON TORGERSON
