DRIVERS found drunk will not participate in the Race of Champions sprint at Entebbe Botanical Gardens on Sunday, writes Swalley Kenyi.
The drivers will be checked by Police with breatherlyzer, according events manager Dusman Okee.

“We have a night event but drivers found drunk will not drive. Police will check that,” Okee told the press at Lugogo yesterday.

Kenyan brothers Peter and Janson Horse and Farouk Mohmood are the latest foreign entrants in the sprint.

They have registered burgess while Mohmood, in a Subaru Impreza N4, will take on the local flock in the similar cars.

The sprint, which will climax with goat-roasting for the winners of the 3km night section, will see Ponsiano Lwakataka (Subaru) and Mitsubishi driver Ronald Sebuguzi renew their rivalry.

Okee said 25 drivers and 17 bikers had entered the first event at the gardens.
The race will also be a tune-up for the Africa championships in Nairobi in mid-August.

Fiery environmentalist and former Rubaga South legislator John Ken Lukyamuzi will guest drive in a Subaru imprinted with: “Protect your environment”.
