This is a name that sends chills down the spines of even the bravest competitors. Jas Mangat is lethal in every sense of the word. A name that’s quickly becoming synonymous with “unbeatable”, “unstoppable”, and, let’s be honest, “it’s over before it even started.” The 2024 Uganda National Rally Champion doesn’t just show up he causes the competition to quit and go home crying to their mothers.
Picture this: A race where you’re watching and wondering if you should even bother strapping in your seatbelt because it’s over before you even realize it Jas Mangat has already won, and he’s probably texting his family about it.
The competition is probably sitting there, asking themselves, “Why are we even here? Why did we sign up for this? Why did I even change the oil in my car this morning?” And when the dust settles, Mangat will still be in the winner’s circle, casually sipping water like he didn’t just leave the rest of the field in a cloud of exhaust fumes.
This guy has won every rally he’s touched like he’s collecting Pokémon cards. You know the feeling when you go to a race, and the guy shows up, and you just look at your car and go, “Well, that’s it, we might as well head to the afterparty?” That’s Jas Mangat. He’s not just winning; he’s winning so fast you’re not even sure if you were ever part of the race in the first place.
But wait, he’s humble too. He sat out one event, just to watch the young guns go at it. Everyone thought, “Oh, maybe he’s slowing down. Maybe he’s taking a break. Maybe we have a chance!” Nah. When he returned, it was like the opening scene of a superhero movie. The crowd gasped, the engine roared, and within minutes? Boom victory. And that’s how you do it. Not even a pause for breath, just a championship march.
His Car – The Hyundai i20
The Hyundai i20 is more than just a machine; it’s a weapon of war in the hands of Jas Mangat. Fast, agile, and precise, it’s built to crush the competition. With countless modifications, it’s as if the car itself anticipates every turn, every shift in the terrain, and every strategy that Mangat employs. So when Mangat’s in the driver’s seat, forget about handling turns. The car doesn’t need to turn. It just slides. It’s almost like the car is trying to avoid everyone else probably out of pity. In fact, if you look closely, you’ll see the wheels giving a slight smirk every time another competitor tries to catch up
His Navigator – Enoch Olinga
When it comes to co-driving, Enoch Olinga doesn’t just read pace notes—he practically spits fire. His pace notes come so fast, you’d think he’s in a race with his own brain to get them out. If you’ve ever heard him call out directions, it’s like listening to a DJ remix a rally course. “Left 3, right 5, brake hard, turn like your life depends on it, and go! GO! GO!” Meanwhile, Jas Mangat is already 30 meters ahead, wondering if Enoch’s pace notes are just his way of asking for a bigger seat.

This is the event to watch. The Champions Sprint promises to be an all-out battle, a bloodbath of speed and precision. Jas Mangat and his team have one goal in mind: to come out victorious, just like they have at every other rally this year. The rest of the competitors? They’re nothing more than obstacles in Mangat’s path to glory. The atmosphere will be charged, the tension palpable this will not just be a race, it’ll be a spectacle of fire and fury.
Get ready, because when Mangat steps on that gas pedal, the competition will be lucky if they even get a chance to breathe.
