CAN: SRFKC round two Hamilton preview

Hamilton set to host Round 2 of the Sunoco Ron Fellows Karting Championship Presented by Toronto Star Wheels this weekend

TORONTO, ONTARIO - This weekend, the stars of the Sunoco Ron Fellows Karting Championship Presented by Toronto Star Wheels will visit Cameron Motorsports Park in Hamilton, Ontario for Round 2 of the six race series.

For the Saturday classes, Canada Junior Light, Canada Senior Heavy, Formula Junior, RotaxMax Jr and World Formula Jr., the weekend will run as usual, with practice and qualifying in the morning, followed by the pre-finals and finals in the afternoon. Markham's Daniel Morad (Formula Junior), Orillia's Taylor Holdaway (Canada Junior Light), Markham's Evan Hayden (RotaxMax Jr), Woodstock's William Keatings (World Formula Junior), and Uxbridge's Aaron de Heus (Canada Senior Light) will all be looking to build on their class wins from Round 1, which was held at Goodwood Kartways.

Sunday is when things should get very interesting. Because the first round of the Sunday classes, Formula Senior, Canada Senior Heavy, RotaxMax Senior, Canada Junior Heavy, and World Formula Senior were postponed at Goodwood, the schedule has been revised to incorporate two rounds on the same day. Drivers will practice, then run two separate qualifying sessions on Sunday morning. Then they will compete in two final races on Sunday afternoon. The loss of the pre-finals will mean drivers that have a disappointing qualifying session, will have to work that much harder to make it to the front of their respective classes.

This is an added bonus for fans and spectators that will take this weekend's action. Many of the Sunday class competitors are anxious to see how they stack up against others in their class, and many have put in extra days of testing to get ready for this very important Sunoco Ron Fellows Karting Championship Presented by Toronto Star Wheels weekend.

The objective of the SRFKC is to help foster a professional environment for kart drivers; help create a positive attitude towards appearance, conduct and discipline; help foster the employment of the best practices for the safe and fair running of competitions; and help kart drivers to move up the racing ladder to automobile racing.
