Flag Off…… at a New Racing Track
8:44pm on Sunday 27th September 2009
The first ever “Sigiriya Rally Cross” the newest addition to the countries motor racing arena, was flagged off this morning at a newly built track in Sigiriya. The specialty in this form of track was that it comprised the features of a ‘tar mach’ as well as the ‘gravel road’ with various obstacles of its kind. A participation of two Indian riders also added importance to the event.

This year’s flag of the first ever “Sigiriya Rally Cross,” was waved today (27 September 2009), at the Sigiriya Air Force station. Speakingairforce.lk the chairman of the organizing committee Air Commodore Rohitha Ranasinghe stated that, it is expected to introduce this event as an annual feature in the Racing calendar. “Sigiriya Rally Cross 2009”, was organized by the Sri Lanka Air Force in association with the Sri Lanka Association of Racing Drivers and Riders (SLARDAR) and Sri Lanka Telecom Mobitel coming forward as its main sponsor. The collection at the gates will be channeled towards the upliftment of families of the injured and fallen SLAF personnel whom can’t be supported through public funds.

The Commander of the Air Force Air Chief Marshal Roshan Goonatileke graced the event as the Chief Guest. Following much competition amongst the "Racers" Ishan Dassanayake and Pasindu Peiris won the two special trophies, for the best driver and best rider respectively.
