Over the action-packed of the event here over the weekend, which was exclusively meant for aspiring young talent, wishing to take the big step from Karting to single-seater open-wheel racing, Perera won the first, fourth and fifth races besides a podium in the second outing to underline his prowess.
Alex Bora (Assam) and Ashwin Datta (Chennai) took the honours in the other two FJRS races that boasted of a 12-car grid.
In the two-wheeler support races, Yashas R.L. (400cc), M Sudhkar (300cc), Anish Shetty (165cc, Novice) and Pooja Dabhi (Ladies, 165cc) won.
