Grass Track racing returns Dec.6 at Goed Fortuin
Flashback!!! New kid on the block Andrew Wong leads the field in one of the races.
The battle for grass track supremacy is set to continue on Sunday, December 6 at the Goed Fortuin Community Centre ground when First Gear Promotions presents Round Two of its ten-event series scheduled to conclude at the end of 2010 where champion riders will be crowned in the respective professional, novice and chappy categories.
Over 15 riders including leader in the points standing Andrew Wong, Vassy Barry, Andy Rajkarran and Stephen Vieira are among the riders expected to compete in the day’s racing which should provide some exciting duels in all the different categories.
Round one commenced with thrills and spills at the Ogle Community Centre ground last month where patrons witnessed the emergence of two relatively young riders topping the points table in the professional and novice divisions.
Wong of the Red Earth Riders Club from Bartica emerged atop the points table in the professional category with 20 points and he is followed closely by veterans Andy Rajkarran 17, Charlie Henry 15 and Vassy Barry 14.
Junior Da Silva, 17 years of age, riding grass track for the first time dominated the novice category claiming three victories in as many races to lead with 30 points.
Raj Rajkarran, Andy’s younger brother and Ravi Singh are distant 16 and 10 points behind respectively.
Meanwhile, the riders from the Biker Boys Club of Enterprise failed to impress, but have vowed to make amends.
In the chappy category, Zalim Mohamed and Satesh Singh made light work of their opponents.
