Rochford's Roll Continues In 2.0 Hot Rods |
 |
Jordan Rochford’s rich streak of form continued at Tullyroan Oval on Saturday night (April 26th), the Portadown 2.0 Hot Rod driver taking another final victory in the opening round of the Hoosier Challenge Series. A dramatic night in the Junior Productions saw Antrim’s Leyton Hughes successfully defend his Golden Helmet title in style, whilst a big grid of 1300 Stock Cars saw Ballyclare’s Michael Logan race through for victory.
The Ninja Karts saw almost 30 drivers racing and there was a heat and final double for Maghera’s Jordan Davis, whilst the Thunder Rods saw Rasharkin’s Jason Darragh take an excellent feature race win.
The two graded heats in the 2.0 Hot Rods were closely fought, with Ally Neill taking a hectic opener from Shane McMillan and Callum Doak. Neill repeated the feat in heat two, rounding McMillan for a fine win with form man Jordan Rochford in third.
The final, the opening round of the Hoosier Challenge Series saw the grid formed on points from the heats. Neill hit the front, but Rochford pulled off a sublime outside line pass to take the lead and the win. Jordan also received a new tyre courtesy of Hoosier Tyres UK, with Andy Best getting the better of the places scrap to take second.
Noah Teggart got the better of a packed field of Junior Productions in a dramatic opening heat for the young stars. There was a rollover for Jake Barnett as Teggart took the flag over Ryan Berry and Andrew Hawe. Having tasted success for the first time, Teggart repeated the feat in heat two which was marred by a big back straight crash. Hawe this time took second over Austin Grattan as the lower graders dominated.
The Golden Helmet final was lined up in points order from the heats, with Teggart setting the early pace. An oil spillage from the previous race made conditions challenging, but Leyton Hughes was showing experience way beyond his years to use the wide line around the oil to catapult himself to the lead. Leyton raced clear to successfully defend his title and take the superb trophy, presented annually by the McKeown family, back home to his Antrim base. Hawe and Teggart impressed greatly in second and third ahead of Berry and Jack Morrison.

A domestic record of eighteen 1300 Stock Cars came to grid for their opening heat, including a debut for former race starter Curtis McConkey. The racing was frantic to say the least, with cautions for a loose wheel on turn four and then a track blockage on the back straight. Star man Curtis Greer burst through the chaos to take the win over Gary Freeburn and Jon McQuillan. Heat two saw debutant Neville Richardson battle with Davy Clarke for the lead, with Richardson taking a well deserved win over Clarke and NI Points Champion Matthew Milliken who had made a sterling drive from the back.
The opening laps of the final were action packed to say the least, and on lap four it was Michael Logan who raced into the lead. Having not figured in the heats, Logan put his trusty Toyota Starlet to great use to extend his advantage and take the chequered flag and the silverware. McQuillan and Graham Meek filled the podium slots after a great battle, ahead of Milliken and Irish Champion Bobbie Johnston.
Steven Bolton was the man to watch in the opening Thunder Rods heat, the former Unlimited Bangers World Champion putting his borrowed car to good use to take the win ahead of a great battle which saw Jason Darragh take second from Gareth McCrory. Brandon Kernohan led the second heat away, but he lost out to Tyler McMaster who took the victory ahead of Darragh and Mark McLaughlin.
McCrory quickly hit the front in the final, holding resolutely to the inside line and inviting his challengers to make the pass on the outside. Approaching mid distance Darragh took the bull by the horns, hit the outside and clawed his way past to record a superb victory. Andrew McLean came through for second ahead of Joe Largey, Bolton and McLaughlin.
A host of English visitors in the Ninja Karts boosted the grid to almost 30 karts, with the busy raceway leading to numerous caution periods. Somerset’s Charlie Major blasted through to win the opening heat in dramatic fashion after Jaxon York and Jack Murphy found the fence on the run to the flag. George Cooper took second, with Murphy claiming third as he slid down the wall! Jordan Davis took the win in heat two, just holding off an assault from England’s Tyler Ward. Jaxon York sneaked second on the line ahead of Ward and Mason Carberry.
The final saw the flying Davis take his second win of the night, this time powering home ahead of Cole York, Murphy, Ollie Williamson and Carberry to complete a superb night for the 6-11 year old stars of the future.
