It is expected that young drivers of the likes of Ashan Silva and Susantha Gunewardene who entered Formula Racing in the recent past, will be seen battling it out on the track on All Fools Day.

The One Make McLarens Alto K10 supporting event too will be hotly contested. Round One Champion, Praveen Madugalle will have to fight all the way if he is to continue in the top place gained in round one a few weeks ago.

Motor Racing enthusiasts are sure of a day filled with spills and thrills from the experienced drivers who will be competing on this day.
