Robert Paul to race in Sentul

JAKARTA (JP): Canadian drag racer Robert Paul is returning to speed his Holden Torana at the first leg of the national drag race championship at Sentul Circuit on Sunday.

Paul was the 1997-1999 champion. He also held the 1995 and 1997 titles for the super car category. He finished third in 1996.

"Sunday's race will be very interesting because I believe all drivers are preparing their cars well," Paul said, as quoted by organizer A.R. Loebis in a fax transmission.

"I will decide later whether to modify my engine or not. I will use my old engine in the first series," he added.

Paul also said he has two mechanics to help him with the engine. (nvn)
