Dizon guns for karting sweep
John Dizon tries to sustain the momentum of his breakthrough season victory recently when he goes for a sweep of Rounds 5 and 6 this weekend in the 2018 Petron ROK GP Super Karting Series at Clark International Speedway in Pampanga.
The reigning Karter of the Year from Edgesport Racing ruled Round 4 with aplomb to put himself in elegant position to keep his national crown after languishing in the shadows of VJ Suba and girl phenom Bianca Bustamante in the first three of the 2018 season’s six rounds.
Veteran Jerry Choi, who narrowly lost to Dizon in the ROK GP Senior race at Carmona Racetrack in Cavite last Aug. 12, is expected to sign up for another crack at a leg title, along with Bustamante, Suba, Raymond Cudala, Dylan Sy, Anthony Baisa, Arvin Drueco and Karl Wilhelm, among others.
