SURPRISE entrant Jas Mangat has raised the stakes in the Central Motor Club Challenge rally in Mukono this weekend by registering a Subaru N10 for the race.

Mangat who took time off the local scene this season to concentrate on the Africa Rally Championship, yesterday confirmed his entry.

Mangat brings to the race a combination of vast experience and a powerful car.

Ronald Ssebuguzi is however likely to take a cautious approach in the final round of the 2009 local championship since he needs only 20 points to be declared winner.

With Ssebuguzi unlikely to be drawn into the battle for outright victory Mutebi, Ssemuju, Lubega and Ssemuju will take centre stage.

The rally will start with a super special stage at Festino Cite double track circuit in Mukono on Saturday and the second leg will cover 23 sections in Mukono.

The event organised by Central Motor Club has so far attracted 22 drivers.
