Two time Malaysian Super Series champion Dilantha Malagamuwa did a wonderful drive last week to win the round two third and fourth races of the Malaysian GT. These two victories also keep him as the clear leader as he has already won the previous round too.

Although Dilantha had problems with his vehicle managed to record the fastest time and was on pole position for the race one. Making good use of the pole position was off to flying start and did not allow any driver to go past him in the early stage of the event.

Malaysia's Weng and Davi Lai though they were behind the wheels of faster cars Ferrari 458 GT3 and David Lai his newly upgraded Lamborghini could not match the driving of Dilantha and finished as runners up. Dilantha was driving a Lamboghini LP560.

Race No. 2 was run on wet track and Dilantha had to rely on his only set used tires that was used for qualifying round. But he overcame all problems and was set for the race due to the help his mechanics who performed a magnificent job within a short time. He got a good start and Weng was side by side with during the first lap and he pulled away from Weng. Finishing the fifth lap Dilantha was on a good lead with Weng and David following. He went on to win this too proving that he is capable of driving under any conditions.
