AL KUKHOUN STEPS NEARER DRIFTING TITLE

Following a brilliant day’s action on the SOFEX Track at Marka, Mohamed Al Kukhoun took a giant step towards the Kumho Jordan Drift Championship with a round four victory.

Al Kukhoun picked up 20 valuable championship points in his BMW to win with Mohammed Nofal in second and brother, Omar Al Kukhoun, in third.

Al Kukhoun now leads the overall championship by nine points from his brother in second, and a victory in the next round on August 28 should seal the title.
