SeaBoard Marine CMRC Round 2 2015 – Wallerfield, Trinidad
Honours were shared at the Wallerfield Raceway over the weekend (June 20/21) when the Trinidad & Tobago Automobile Sports Association (TTASA) hosted round two of the 2015 Seaboard Marine Caribbean Motor Racing Championship. There were eight different winners in the nine CMRC races, while TTASA deserves great credit for completing its programme, as intermittent “monsoon” conditions caused a number of delays.

TTRC Rally Finale 2011 – Reform
After a disastrous start in the previous rally, on his much anticipated return to rallying – Ainsley “Mr. Action” Lochan with co-driver Robert Cadiz, in his STAG/ULTRA/JOSEF’s EVO IX, showed his top rivals that he is still a force to be reckoned with, by winning the final rally aptly named Rally Finale Reformed, albeit a slim margin over the Shell Helix/Intercontinental Shipping sponsored EVO X of John Powell and Jason Costelloe.
Valvoline Drag and Wind(ing) #2
Following the first edition of the first ever Drag and Wind(ing) Motor Sport Event staged on 19th July, there was an almost and immediate demand for the second event to be rapidly executed. So a date was selected and we started to put the wheels in motion, and word got around that that this can be a great marketing tool and the rest is history.
AutoSport Drag + Time Attack
Finally after nearly 5 years AutoSport was able to stage an event in T&T. This brought many from varying disciplines to participate in one Event – certainly what was hoped to have achieved at the Arima Grand Prix, (and that matter is far from over) and finally getting some relief for many of those who entered that Event and now able to relieve a tiny bit of pent-up racing energy.
