Giovanni Corona – Vortex manager
“We are excited for the several engagements we will attend in this final part of the season, both with the Rok and with our Racing Team, Tony Kart, Kosmic Kart and FA Kart.
We nowadays more and more believe in the plan we developed 10 years ago, with the production of the Rok engine and the promotional activity, when we decided to expose ourselves to a difficult and new task. Today we could say we won that fight, however we are not fully satisfied since we more and more believe in the Rok Cup and the introduction of the new Rok Shifter means Vortex wish to continue in its research, promotional and organizational Rok Cup program. We want to go on in the development of the category, now more than ever.
To all the protagonists of the upcoming Rok Cup Italy I wish good luck!”
