Total karting Zero returned to Hooton park in Ellesmere Port last weekend for round 3 of the Northern Championship, with Hyde’s Thomas Rathbone putting in a dominant performance in spectacular fashion.

A dramatic weekend of action saw the eight-year-old take first spot on the third and final race, meaning he will now enter Round 4, which is taking place in August at Larkhall in Scotland, with Thomas having closed the gap in the Championship lead between himself and rival Teddy.

Thomas will enter the race brimming with confidence and will no doubt be looking to build on the momentum from last weekend’s encounter, aided and supported by close family and friends.
