Rowe, Sera Captain KartSport North America’s SuperNationals XVII Campaign with TaG Senior 1-2 Finish
KartSport North America completed their SuperKarts! USA SuperNationals XVII campaign with an eventful day filled with success for many of their 23 drivers. However, it was Australian karters, Nicholas Rowe and David Sera who stole the show with their impressive 1-2 finish in the incredibly competitive TaG Senior division main event. Both drivers were piloting Team Arrow Karts. Sera looked to be the driver to beat, leading the first half of the race with a lengthy lead on the field. With seven laps to go, both Marco Maestranzi and Sera’s teammate, Rowe, were beginning to challenge his lead. Rowe made his move to take first place and eventually the TaG Senior final win with just four laps to go. Team GoPro driver, AJ Allmendinger was caught up in a Turn One incident on the restart which ended his day early.
Jamie McMurray was the highest finishing Team GoPro driver with his eighth-place finish in the TaG Masters final. Will Power was involved in a Turn Three incident which took him out of contention only three laps into the race. Power had been running fifth and was making a pass for third before the incident.
Of KartSport NA’s 23 drivers entered in six different divisions, there were six, top-10’s, four of those being top-five finishes. Congrats to all KartSport NA drivers on a strong showing at SuperNationals XVII!
