You do realise that the only diff between my car and Devi's car is that he has swift sport shocks and lowering springs and his car was a full 2 seconds faster than mine at the last dex.

His car was 60lbs less than mine so I guess it cancels out?

He also has better tires in the form of those michellins...so those three things added up seem to be about 2 seconds.

Just a reminder for the selected Solodex competitors, Wednesday 20th April from 4:00pm to 6:00pm will be scrutineering. You also have to pay a fee of $100.00 per entry. With this you will receive 4 wrist bands, which includes one for the driver which you will get at the gates on the morning of the event.

A MATT Representative will be on hand to collect entry fees. Once you pay you will receive a MATT receipt which you will have to walk with on Sunday for the event. This receipt will enable you to enter the event and you must be at the Larry Gomes Stadium by 9:00am.

N.B. Scrutineering will be done on this day ONLY. If you have not previously paid the MATT registration and or had your car scrutineered, then you must attend this final scrutineer and registration session, otherwise you will NOT be eligible to compete on Sunday.

Scrutineering to be held at:
165 Short Street
Lange Park
Chaguanas.

To get directions please call the following:
Gen: 678-4635
Devi: 680-6747

Hi Folks,

The Arima Grand Prix carded for tomorrow has been cancelled. Further information will be posted as soon as relevant facts are confirmed. So far it appears that the police service has withdrawn their approval at the eleventh hour for the event.

So any update on this ?

AutoSport · Postby **AutoSport** » June 4th, 2011, 2:03 pm

So the "powers that be" seem to be having fun at the expense of the many serious and genuine motor sport lovers. With the date for the second attempt at staging this event fast approaching - and here we refer to the 22nd May, it was clearly stated that if no approval was granted by 14th May, then the date would have to be again changed. That being said, some brilliant individual "heard" other wise - event cancelled.

So another application was submitted on the 24th May and we waited, and checked back, and waited and checked back, to discover this past week that the application was "filed" away.

But there is a God, and we are extremely persistent, and will not give in to evil.

So we are again pushing to get the required approval WITHOUT succumbing to the evil ones.

“The accomplice to the crime of corruption is frequently our own indifference” - Bess Myerson.

But we will not be indifferent to those so inclined.

The irony of this is today - June 4th, good people in Trinidad and Tobago have to be fighting evil to get permission to use maybe one kilometre of roadway for a Motor Sport Event. And today, 4th June, in Barbados at this very moment, possibly the entire country, all of the motor sport lovers, the general public, the Government, they are having possibly the biggest Motor Racing event ON THEIR ROADS throughout the island, bringing in competitors and cars from Europe, bringing in millions of dollars in foreign exchange, and really growing an industry.

Ironic eh!

Question: how come the SRGP went thru, or should i say, appear to have gone thru a similiar process with approvals and the event went thru well.
And this AGP is bouncing its head against a wall.

And where is our minister roberts now, as this was his brainchild idea.
