Visser is Mini Rok under-10 champion
Durbanville’s Visser karting brothers Kyle and Charl travelled to Vereeniging for the Rok Cup races at the Laserfiche Raceway over the weekend and young Kyle came home as the 2017 South African Under-10 Mini Rok champion. A delighted Kyle added his newly won national title to his 2015 Western Cape Cadet championship.
“It was a tough weekend,” Kyle admitted after ending up sixth for the day, tied with Aqil Alibhai on fifth placed points. “I qualified fourth and had a really tough race with Aqil in the first race and I stole fourth from sixth on the last lap. “The second race was just as tough but I went from seventh to fourth over the last two laps but I went the wrong way at the end of race 3 to end 8th.
“The final was good and I had another big scrap with Aqil - he beat me in the race but we tied on points for the day, but we won the under-10 Mini Rok championship and I am so proud! “I would like to thank my folks and my brother Charl for all the help, my mechanic Zefrey and everyone else for everything they do and I hope this title is a good reward for them!”
Elder brother Charl had a tough weekend as he struggled for pace in the MSA Academy Trophy. “I would rather congratulate Kyle today,” South Africa’s CIK-FIA Academy representative and reigning SA Maxterino champion admitted. “He drove so well as always and I am proud that he won the under-10 championship.”
