The MRA is running Round 1 of the 2007 National Rally Championship the weekend following the Carlton, on the 26th, 27th and 28th of January on the grounds of the Pelawatte Sugar Corporation. Whoever can should come, because it is an excellent rally, with fast, spectacular stages.

Hey is it true that they are giving a 100 % Duty Free Permit to the Winner of Super Car Event,

This will make the event more intresting. At least hope someone gets a chance of Ordering the Latest Evo 10.

I heard that too. But it seems like its any car upto 1000cc (or was it 1300cc?) Anyone wanna bring down a real cheap March :D

Also heard its 10 free permits. To be given to each class winner, or summin like that. A bit confused.

No Pericles, now they've gone back to the original plan of giving the SL-GT Class winner a permit for an SL-GT Class Car. The second permit will be awarded to the winner of a class yet un-named.

Thanks for the Info KLM

Mahinda Chintanaya should allow at least 5-6 permits for the supercar drivers. Because having a New car makes a big difference in Super Car Racing on Tarmac. This will encourage many new comers as well.

Anyway This event will be a Super Event.

This is OT but pls read the following:

Dont count on the 100% duty free thing. Cos from what I have heard recently with regard to duty free shipments the story goes as this.

A guy has invested a vast amount of cash in gov treasury bonds hoping to get a duty concession according to what the treasury was offering. He got down a Prado or a Land cruiser according to the clearing guy on hi "duty free" permit. The vehicle came to SL and at customs he was told that only the customs duty is free according to the permit and you have to pay the rest (ie: VAT, PAL, CESS and etc which are the killers). Ultimately he has re-exported it back... Sad sad.....

You gotta be carefull when you think of duty free permits so as to not fall into the same hole.

On a note relative to Thissamaharama, Land Rover Owners Club will be having a convoy to Thissa from Colombo and some events scheduled for the evening after the practice sessions on 20th. Don't know more than that yet but shall follow up next week.

I am doubt can SMSC able to held this event on coming weekend due to heavy rains in that area. I heard 50% of Tissa area is undear water due to overflow of tanks around the city.

Its gonna to be a hot event if weather permits to do so.

Yes you are right about your prediction. The meet is postponed due to bad weather. :) The new date as of now is not known. However there are no dates before SLARDAR Katu which is scheduled for the 11th of Feb. As such Tissa will be towards the end of Feb / early March. Also the event will be conducted by SLAS and not SMSC.
