Rally Trinidad 2010 – Scrutineering
The public got a chance to see all the cars entered in Rally Trinidad 2010 and to meet and greet the drivers at the scrutineering event held at rally HQ stationed at Grand Bazaar. Everyone was interested in seeing the foreign competition and even more so to meet Mark Higgins and Nicky Grist.
TORMATT Motorcross
If the first event of the TORMATT 2010 National Championship is a sign of the competition in store, the rest of 2010 will be very exciting. The club held their first event at their Indian Trail track and the RedBull sponsored event was a soaring success as a large number of race fans and motorcross supporters turned out for the event.
Diesel Boyz – Fishing Pond to Manzan Run
It’s that time again where we close our eyes and point to a spot on a map of Trinidad. The destination, Fishing Pond, a quiet little village on the east coast of Trinidad situated on the outskirts of Sangre Grande. With the whole gang finally together at the Wallerfield intersection to Cumuto, we were off and encountered the strangest thing, a heavy rain shower. The peak of the dry season, serious water restrictions and we are driving in pouring, bucket –ah-drop rain. Go figure.
Rally Trinidad 2010 – Sneak Peak
The excitement is building for Rally Trinidad 2010 and the feeling can only be described as “giddy”! On Friday night the foreign cars, including the WRC contenders and the car Mark Higgins & Nicky Grist will be running, were cleared off the port and Gerrard Wilson and Robbie Cadiz took the opportunity to get some “spy” photos before the cars are revealed to the T&T public for the launch of RT10 later this week.
Solodex 2
Arima Race Club car park was the palpable venue for Solodex II, 2010. The course was a devilish mix of fast sections and left-wheel murdering corners. Everyone had an opinion on this course, and everyone was watching to see who would shine under the 35 degree heat. Twenty seven competitors came out to put their cars and themselves through the paces.
