Jayden McElhinney (inset) has made real waves in his first year of competing in karting
A nine-year-old Manorcunningham schoolboy is making waves in karting.
Jayden McElhinney, who has only been karting for just over a year, finished third in the Ulster Karting Championship.
A third class pupil at Ray NS in Manor, he has been raising eyebrows in championship races held at the likes of Nutts Corner, Athboy, Whiteriver and Pallas Karting Centre.
A son of Kelvin and Clara McElhinney, he was in action last weekend in round 8 of the Championship.
At Nutts Corner, Jayden, who races for the DMS team, won all of his races and will be officially presented with his third-place Championship finish at the annual awards function next month.
The family are no strangers to racing. His father, who acts as his mechanic, is well known in motorsport circles.
