Zane is king of Pro Swift Group

ZANE MALONEY is the World Karting Association’s (WKA) Pro Swift Sportsman Group champion.

The 12-year-old first form student of the St Michael School won the title during round three of the Winter Cup Tour in North Carolina at the March 4-6 weekend.

His cousin Joshua Maloney, who finished eighth, is now ranked in the top ten of the championship.

Speaking from the track after the event the young Barbadian said it was tough, the competition never rested and “you must always be ready” and be on the go at all times.

“It is not like in Barbados. The competition in the US is not easy. The fellows are very tough and they do not ease you,” he said.
