It is said that the Lion is the king of the jungle. Apparently the drag racers who are the combatants in the adrenaline-laden DRAG RIVALS series, who for the most part, have acquired animal nicknames, did not receive the chain of command memo.
In their jungle, where speed is celebrated vociferously, the Lion is having a rather difficult time maintaining dominance or supremacy. Ironically, creatures that retain very little prominence in the typical seek and destroy encounters in the wild, have stepped to the line and left a trail of dismembered Toyotas, Nissans and even family members – Hondas – in their wake! Lol. Is it true that the Sheep is the real King?
If you have not yet heard, you will owe me in a bit. Arguably, the most anticipated drag racing event, since it was announced that Vernamfield would no longer play host to high-boost-speed shenanigans, will land at Jamwest Speedway in Little London, Westmoreland on September 30!
BALLY
The KEN-T Racing event, labelled Drag Rivals III will assemble heavy-hitting machines and their drivers from all of the sectors of ‘The Rock’ where individuals claim to rep the sicckkest machines! Sav machines will be on their home-court, but the Mobay faction led by the renowned ‘Bally’ himself will disrupt that bandwagon.
KIRBY
Cory – the undisputed 11 seconds maestro and the Mandeville gang will seek to stamp their authority on the proceedings. Ochi will definitely be in the building – Seymour Speed, Omar and the rest of the uber-fast, St Ann click will be bringing the real mental machines. This one, they will tell you, will be for Kirby! RIP.
Clarendon – Supra power? Kingston has no clowns and argue you will, debate you must, but we all know that Kingston retains, not only the most powerful beasts in any jungle, but also the hyper-fast machines that scare the d..n tree when they thunder through the burnout box! Vaughn is now a member of the 10 seconds club! Velocity Racing on the rise! Oniel – Little T ?Dean Shaw! Brinn Morgan! Machines which bring the pain to any screaming 4 cylinder riot which dares to protest!
DWAYNE PORTER
I deliberately did not mention Sir Dwayne ‘The Lion’ Porter who has a huge 8 seconds point to prove. I had a conversation with the ‘Lion’. I also had a conversation with The Right Honourable Ruel ‘The Whale’ Barnett. A certain DC5 R which has proven itself, will not make his task easy. He must convert ridiculously high n/a whp to low e.t. I also spoke to His Excellency, Jordane ‘The Dragon’ Ellis – he is in a fiery mood.
Know this, what they said will surprise you. What they said will provide useful insight – utter annihilation will visit the 1320 at Jamwest Speedway. I will share their views in Part 2!
Little London brace yourself! This is not your typical event. This is a M.P.H-hurricane. Expect machines with Category 10 speed. Anticipate the purge – constant bursts of nitrous will be present. Boost pressure in excess of 45 psi – Roland Crawford territory - will threaten low lying areas!
Is the first book in the bible ready? Genesis! Roland, your reputation is on the line. Who said the Genesis was CashPot – “Neva know what it might run!” I called Mr Crawford.
For this event there will be no Feelings Form! Big up ‘SpinBarrel’ aka Marlon! Bring your A- game!
KEN – T RACING, FALKEN TYRES and 876 STREETS sponsored, DRAG RIVALS III – JAMWEST SPEEDWAY SEPTEMBER 30!
