“We can’t wait to welcome ROK Cup USA to our neck of the woods and look forward to having not only the national level ROKKERs compete, but also our local teams and competitors as well,” explained F-Series Promoter Marco Oldhafer. “The ROK platform is quickly becoming the brand of choice in North American karting, and we can’t wait to be able to support the ROK Fest East event with 110% of our efforts and to assist Garett and his crew in whatever they may need.”
Potter continued, “We’ve had a lot of interest in this event from both sides of the border and can’t wait. For anyone who hasn’t had the opportunity to see this track, it’s a must-attend – hands down one of the nicest in the country. We are very happy to welcome some new sponsors to the karting family as well. New York Race Complex and ROK CUP USA would like to welcome Nationwide Insurance and Snider & Snider Law Firm as event partners. We have several other activities in the works for the ROK Fest East event that will be announced in the coming weeks.”
