Red Star Raceway, the new home of ROK Cup karting in South Africa, will host the national and Northern Regions competition opening rounds on 14-15 February, the first of two combined national and regional events on the 2025 calendar. Following a solid 2024 outing, the 13-year-old talent returns for another exhilarating season in the ultra-competitive Mini ROK category, ready to take on the best young drivers in the country.

With expert coaching and a dedicated team behind him, Aashay is focused on building consistency and fighting at the front of the pack.
In 2024, Aashay also gained valuable international experience, competing in an IAME event and the ROK Super Final in Italy. These high-profile events tested his skills against some of the best young karting talents worldwide, further sharpening his competitive edge.
His valued sponsors, The Bronscor Group, Sparco South Africa, INGCO South Africa, and Score Immune Booster, back his quest for success. Their support ensures that Aashay has top-tier racing gear, equipment, and the necessary resources to chase championship glory.
As Aashay’s 2025 season approaches, he will aim to establish the tone for the season with a strong performance. With his natural speed, racing intelligence, and unwavering drive to win, expect the young Eastern Cape driver to be a formidable contender as the lights go out this weekend.
