Motorsports Chennai: Madras Motor Sports Club


Motorsports Chennai is synonymous with Madras Motor Sports Club, a pioneering organization that is promoting motorsports in this city. The founding of this club is rather unusual and interesting. The summer of 1953 saw a tall Englishman Rex Strong and a short Indian K Varugis, racing down chasing each other from Chesney Hall to the parking lot of the catholic center, only to realize that racing would be more fun if organized off the roads. And that’s how Motorsports Chennai got its own vroom track, filled with action and adventure.

Though the Sholavaram race track has the perfect setting for Formula racing, Government bureaucracy soon caught up and the Madras Motor Sports Club had to look for an alternative track. The search finally presented the 300 acre Irungattukottai race track hosted its first race in 1990 with a track that is 11 meters wide and 12 major curves. The first of its kind in India, this race track in Sriperumbudur hosts 14 racing events, both cars & bikes and an equal number of TSD rallies in the city.


Top level auto racing series Formula 5000, Formula Two and Formula Atlantic are the regular events that Sriperumbudur witnesses, apart from mopeds, scooters, superbikes and Indian saloon car racing.
