-Surinamese perform outstandingly
Mohamed’s Enterprises GTR of Team Goliath scorched the quarter-mile Drag Strip to
establish a new record with a staggering 7.5 seconds on Sunday when the Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMR&SC) held its season opening ‘Reaction’ Dragz event on Sunday, at the South Dakota Circuit.
The Blue speed monster driven by Josh Ramsey obliterated the opposition which included fellow stablemate Nizmo and several attempts by top Superbike riders in an astounding performance, setting the GTR in a league of its own.
However, the day was not without a bit of controversy and it occurred when the Toyota Caldina, the reigning eight-second champion driven by Shawn Persaud challenged the GTR and appeared to ‘beat’ it in a staggered start, but the officials ruled it as a false start and the race was declared null and void.
Persaud, however, was officially classified the eight-second champion following the release of results.
Suriname’s Vishal Ramcharran in a Toyota Mark X dominated three classes, winning the nine-ten and eleven seconds division to make it a good day for the Dutch.
The visitors also claimed the Superbike category through Rajiv Lallbeharrie, who dispatched all and sundry in a dominant performance, Raymond John captured the twelve-second class.
Imran Khan was continued his dominance of the thirteen-second division, while Sunil Singh and Devindra Persaud were unstoppable in the 14 and 15 seconds categories.
Meanwhile, motor racing action returns to the South Dakota Circuit with the staging of the Race of Champions Meet on April 2.
