As a micro class rookie, he shocked the class leaders when he took a 2nd and 3rd place finish in his first few race entries. The family then moved cross country to North Carolina cutting his 2021 season short. Jayden is now competing in the Go Pro Karting Challenge in Mooresville, NC. Competing against the top ranked drivers in the country has proven to be a challenge for him to find the podium, but he has consistently finished strong and is currently holding a solid 10th place in points for the 2022 season.
