Jackes keeps Asian crown
FLYNN Jackes is on a roll.
The Filipino-Australian, who is coming off scintillating wins at the Carmona Race Track in September and at the Clark International Speedway the following month in the KF3 Restricted Class, kept his Mini-Rok Class crown in the 2014 Asian Karting Championship last weekend.
“The goal was to win the Mini-Rok championship again in 2014, and I’m very happy to have achieved that considering the tougher field this year and the maturation of everyone in the class,” said Jackes.
