The strongest entry yet in the 2002 motor sport season in Barbados has been gathered for the Castrol Rally, a joint Barbados Rally Club (BRC) and Motoring Club of Barbados Inc (MCBI) promotion this Sunday.
Reigning Barbados Rally Club (BRC) champion Roger 'The Sheriff' Skeete is fighting time to be ready for the club's second event of the year, this Sunday's (April 7) double-header at Sailor Gully and Pickerings, a joint promotion with the Motoring Club of Barbados Inc.

On Tuesday afternoon, Skeete said: "We worked all the holiday weekend and we'll keeping working right through this week.
Antonio Rodriguez was elected chairman of the Barbados Rally Club (BRC) at the club's Annual General Meeting on Thursday (March 21); he replaces Roger Skeete and returns to the position from which he resigned a year ago. More than 50 club members attended the meeting, held at the Barbados Clay Target Association's clubhouse at Searles in Christ Church; voting for the club's officers and management committee was followed by lively discussion about the club's future in a meeting which lasted more than three hours.
