Members of the Management Club and their guests had a rare opportunity of enjoying a fun filled day packed with surprises aplenty recently at the ‘TMC Fun Rally on Wheels – 2015’, that was organised by TMC Colombo in collaboration with CEAT tyres, Calico Cords Ltd. and Singer (Sri Lanka) PLC as their main sponsors. Oro International, Asons Ltd. and Speed Water were the supporting sponsors for the event.
The rally route plotted by Damascene Fernando from the Classic Car Club, who is also a member of TMC, had many thrills and mysteries as navigators were kept busy looking for answers to the clues while the drivers had to keep to the required pace to finish the course within the specified time duration. TMC Fun rally on Wheels – 2015 saw both male and female navigators, some of them very young while some others not so young, engaged in taking photographs of statues, buying snacks to produce receipts in the initial stages and later bolting into a cemetery to find out the dates of birth of some who had been laid to rest years back.
Farzana and Malik were declared winners and were awarded the ‘TMC Fun Rally on Wheels – 2015’ Trophy by Senaka Abeyakoon and Prabath Gunasekera, the Co-Chairmen of the event, along with some valuable gift packs from Wurth.
The runners up Trophy went to Nalin Ahangama and Mahinda Rodrigo while father-son combination, Rohan and Aditya Amirthiah were placed third.
The post rally fellowship continued till nearly sunset, at which point it was about time to bring to a conclusion a very memorable and entertaining day, and a majority of them had already resolved to take part the next year too.
