Onkar Rai
Onkar’s rallying debut was in 2011 at the wheel of a
Subaru Impreza, which he rolled. By the end of the year
he was standing on the podium. Here is a man who has
realized that, to learn the limits you must overstep them.
Onkar currently campaigns a VW Polo R5 super car in the
Kenyan Championship alongside his Classic exploits in a
BMA built Porsche 911. Although he has already tasted
the winners champagne in the Kenyan National Rally
Championship, Onks' best result in Classic Rallying is
second overall on this years Top Fry… beaten only by his
team mate Boldy!
Tej Rai
Tej started rallying at the same time as his brother but
moved into Classics a bit later, making his debut in 2015,
finishing as top Kabras team member on his debut event!
Since then Tej has proved to be a thorn in his brothers
side, often faster in the classic Porsche, reveling in the
flamboyant handling of the rear engined sports car.
In the Kenyan National Rally Championship Tej
campaigns a Mitsubishi Evo X, with a best result of third
overall in the 2018 Eldoret Rally, but by his own
admission, he prefers long distance events and the thrill
of driving the Porsche.
Baldev Chager
Boldy is the mentor, the mechanic, the legend. Listed as
“mechanical engineer” as his occupation, this
description hides the fact that he is extremely quick in a
rally car. A multiple rally champion with over 40 podium
finishes to his name, Boldy is one of the ones to watch in
this years East African Classic Safari Rally.
Boldy has won the past three Classic events he has
contested and currently leads the Kenyan National Rally
Championship in a Mitsubishi Evo X.
