Karting: BKMS Racing win last event for 2015

With their sheer grit and positive approach BKMS Racing won the last karting event for year 2015 at the Sri Lanka Karting Circuit in Bandaragama, pipping Blue Pepper by just one lap. 

The fourth and final round of the 6-hour Endurance Karting Championship was a closely contested race with three teams out of the top five completing the same number of laps. 

Despite taking off 10th on the grid and trailing runners-up Blue Pepper by almost two laps during the first five hours, BKMS racers pulled their socks up and turned the race around, with Bryan Perera and Ushan Perera doing their bit to close the gap and Kevin Perera doing a flawless run in the wet to lead his team by one lap in the end. 

BKMS Racing completed a total of 499 laps which gave them not only a win the second consecutive round but also the overall championship. 

Their pit crew Lucky and Sampath also pitched in, managing the pit stops in less than one and a half minutes and giving their drivers an edge over the other teams. 

A total of 12 teams took part in the final round while RHC Racing, Intek Racing and SLR Motorsports finished third, fourth and fifth respectively, completing 496 laps each. 

Raptor Racing Eagles were the overall runners-up. The event was sponsored by Sri Lanka Insurance Corporation and Assetline Leasing Company Limited.
