Rhino Charge entrants to this weekend’s Rob’s Magic Quattro Charge took the top six positions in the expert section.

Ten of the thirty entrants in the expert section were Rhino Charge cars. Winner Rommy Bamrah of Car 40 Rhino Charge received a winning bonus of Ksh 160,000 towards his Rhino Charge 2008 pledge.

The remaining nine received cheques of Ksh 130,000.

The event raised a record total of Ksh 1,783,500. The prize money as promised by organiser and ex-Rhino Charge veteran winner Rob Collinge, who retired from Rhino Charge last year, was distributed to the ten 2008 Rhino Charge entries who participated. Smaller cash prizes were given to “budding Rhino Chargers” in the Intermediate, Junior and Quad sections.

A total of 40 vehicles participated before a crowd of 1,500.

Jatinder Mehta, father of teenager Gurmeet Mehta who performed as the best non-Rhino Charge entrant announced that he would give a further Kshs 216,500 to top up the Quattro Charge total fundraise to Rhino Ark to Ksh 2million.

In previous years, Quattro Charge has raised money for organiser, Rob Collinge’s car. Rob promised that future Quattro Charges would raise funds for Rhino Charge cars which enter the event.
