AutoSport / Shelshok Street Car Challenge - for 14th. October 2000

Release supplied by AutoSport Promotions

In the street Drag competition held on Saturday 14th October, a total of eleven cars signed up, and what a wide cross section this was!

For those who feel they know their cars, well the challenge they really faced was to leave the light on their green, go as fast as hell, and not break out. In the great majority of instances drivers lost because they broke out of their dial-up time. Consistency was the name of the game.

By the fourth round, competitors 101, 403 ,402, 206, 41, 23, were still battling each other. Then it came down to Dave Mangroo vs Dave Deen and Yazeed Ali vs Ramkaran Beharry.

Well would you believe Dave Deen in his very standard B14 and Ramkaran Beharry in his RX7 were the lucky ones moving on to the final. Deen showed his competitive ability, and knowledge of his car and went on to record two consecutive wins over Beharry. These two drivers immediately collected their cash prizes.

As an added incentive, from this Event, Sheldon "Shelshok" Benjamin is sponsoring trophies for this street Class Competition. These drivers will collect their trophies at AutoSport's end-of-year Prize function and dinner at a time and place to be advised.

AutoSport wishes to remind all that, as has been their tradition, they will be having their annual Santa Claus dropping in by parachute! They will also be hosting kids from two institutions and will be providing gifts for these special guests. They are making every effort to possibly provide gifts for the other kids who attend this final Event with their families.
