Namibia Karting Rok Championship Leg 3:

ADRENALINE RUSH at R&R RaceTrack

The R&R RaceTrack in Swakopmund buzzed with excitement on May 10th, as

the third leg of the Namibia Karting Rok Championship hit full throttle. Hosted

by the Walvis Bay Motor Club and fueled by the passionate support of Swakop

Karters and Kart Store, the day promised high-octane action. The crowd

packed the stands, their cheers blending with the thunderous roar of engines.

Under the scorching sun, young racers revved up for an intense day of

competition. The heat was palpable both on and off the track. But as the clock

struck 15:00, the weather took a dramatic turn, dropping to a chilly cold.

Despite the sudden drop in temperature, the competition remained red-hot,

with racers still neck and neck, battling for victory.

Kid Rok Class: A Dominant Display

was nothing short of dominant, securing pole position and sweeping all

three heat races. His consistency and speed were unmatched, leaving

his rivals in his dust.

mere 14 minutes and 12 seconds!

Kristopher Koudelka (#16) put up a valiant fight, consistently finishing in

second place, showcasing his determination and skill. He also showed why he

is the Namibia Kid Rok Champion of 2023 and took 2nd place like a true

warrior and showed great sportsmanship.

Francois Gouws (#80) also had a strong showing, securing multiple podium

finishes and proving his resilience on the track.

Mini Rok Division: A Battle for Supremacy

The Mini Rok division was a battleground of talent, with Cecil Koorts (#44)

emerging as the victor. His lightning-fast reflexes and strategic driving earned

him pole position and three consecutive wins.

Did you know? Koorts' average speed in qualifying was equivalent to a

cheetah sprinting at full tilt!

Hermann Schouw (#15) consistently challenged Koorts, securing second

place in all three heats. The competition for the remaining podium spot was

fierce, with Toni Rust (#911) and Joane Kotze (#12) both showcasing their skills

and determination.

seconds, a testament to his dominance.
