Ashton Grant had a clean sweep in Rotax Junior; although it wasn\u2019t always easy. He was chased all day by Taylor Hurst & Josh Parkinson and it was nail biting stuff.<\/p>\n The Kerikeri dark horse, Steve Carter, pulled off Clubsport 120. Carter didn\u2019t win a race all weekend but with his worst finish being only fourth it was his consistency that paid dividends. Dean Oliver won all the races on track but a tech exclusion in the third heat meant he could only manage second overall. Cliff Walsh was in third, pipping Brendon White by just one point.<\/p>\n The Vortex Mini Rok class delivered everything expected; the thrills, the spills and superb racing. Ryan Crombie was a clear winner, 10 points ahead of Blake Austin. Points were tight for the minor placings; one point separating Josh Richmond, Dylan Grant, Breanna Morris & Clay Osborne. The drive of the weekend came from Breanna Morris; having had a dismal qualifying which put her starting the heats off grid 19 she worked her way forward race by race to eventually win the final by a substantial margin and giving the competition a lesson on wet weather driving.<\/p>\n Mason Potter successfully defended his 2015 City of Sails Cadet Rok title with five wins from five starts \u2013 and a new track record.<\/p>\n In KZ2 Simeon Woolsey was clearly fastest all weekend; although Andrew Hunt wasn\u2019t far behind. A racing infringement in the final saw Woolsey loose the on track win and hand the overall to Hunt, with Rollo Davies in third.<\/p>\n Rotax DD2 saw another clean sweep; CJ Sinclair a clear winner of all races. It went right down to the final to decide overall second & third placings; Sam Waddell holding off Liam Croudis.<\/p>\n Rotax Light was a class full of mixed fortunes. After qualifying pole Keith Wilkinson had two disastrous heats and while improving in the pre-final & winning the final it was not enough. Kaleb Currie had had a solid weekend and was on target to take overall honours when his rear bumper parted company a few laps from home in the final. This handed the overall win to Jordan Baldwin with Suvarn Naidoo in third, both of whom had also had fairly solid results.<\/p>\n Results \u2013<\/strong><\/p>\n Cadet Rok<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Vortex Mini Rok<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rotax Max Junior<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Clubsport 120<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rotax Max Light<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rotax DD2<\/p>\n <\/p>\n KZ2<\/p>\n Mixed Fortunes this year The Microbe Cars sponsored City of Sails was full of thrills, a couple of spills and superb racing.
