TRS-Castrol kids sparkle in national karting series

MANILA, Philippines - The Tuason Racing School (TRS)-Castrol Kids Team put up a good show behind Flynn Jackes and Wil Casequin recently in the second leg of the National Karting Series at the Batangas Racing Circuit in Rosario, Batangas.

The two were part of the pioneer batch of young karting protégés who excelled in the Castrol Champions of the Future program launched last year. They proved their worth when they delivered a champion trophy and a third place finish, respectively, for the TRS-Castrol Kids Team powered by Castrol, Bridgestone, Standard Insurance, C! Magazine, OMP, Coke Zero, Oakley, Aguila and Toptul.

Jackes captured the Mini-ROK crown while Casequin took second runner-up honors in the Formula Cadet Expert class.

Jackes fought off the favorites as he ruled both the pre-final and final races.

Teammate AT Tuason wound up fourth in the Formula Cadet Expert class as he checked in close behind by just 1.681 seconds behind the champion.

“As expected, our young recruits started to show their fangs in this series. They’ve shown improvements as far as skills, defense and racing attitude are concerned. I’m confident there’s more to squeeze out from these young future champions,” said TRS president JP Tuason.
