KRISTIAN Jeffrey let his Mitsubishi Evolution do the talking to take pole position in front of Barbadian Barry Mayers for today’s International Race of Champions.

The event which forms the basis for the final leg of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship(CMRC), saw the hometown hero overhaul the Barbadian threat.
However, there is no room for comfort, since the Bajan speedster is just a shade behind him after yesterday’s qualifying session.

Jeffrey posted a 33.205 seconds, ahead of Mayers’ 33.273 seconds, as the duo fought for supremacy in the CMRC final leg.
The six lap session had those present on their seats’ edge as the two renewed a duel last held in Barbados.

Though they qualified in different sessions, their times were closely monitored by fans and officials alike.
The closeness of the times mean that today’s battle will be even more interesting, especially since Mayers promised to take the lap record.

Meanwhile in Group 3, Danny Persaud will start ahead of Vishok Persaud, Stefan Jeffrey and Trinidad and Tobago’s Ravi Singh.
In group two, Shairaz Roshandin will start ahead of Chet Singh and Mark Thompson of Barbados.

The superstock end of things will see team Mohamed’s Matt Truelove starting ahead of Bryce Prince and Matthew Vieira, with Jason Aguilar leading the super sport class.
In the first of the three races yesterday, Narine Dasrat won the street tuner; Anand Ramchand won the starlet cup and Daniel Deokie won the sport tuner class.
