A massive congratulations to Year 11 student Cruz Soper, who brought home the trophy for 2nd Overall in Round 1 of the Youth Saloon Series held in Invercargill over the weekend.

Cruz delivered an impressive set of drives across the three races, showing both skill and determination throughout the event. He finished 1st in Race 1 after starting 4th on the grid, followed by 5th place in Race 2 after starting 14th, and 6th place in Race 3 after starting 12th.

These strong performances across all three races secured Cruz an outstanding 2nd overall for the round. It was a fantastic and well-deserved result, and we look forward to following his progress throughout the rest of the series.

Well done, Cruz!
