Motor racing fans and enthusiasts attending GuyExpo will have a great opportunity to listen to some of the stars of the sport talk about their experiences through an initiative of the Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMR&SC) as part of its promotion of the final leg of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship (CMRC) which is slated to be staged on November 11, at the South Dakota Circuit.
The first part of the promotion will commence with a super-charged display of the cars, Super bikes and go-karts that will be participating at the upcoming Meet and patrons will be able to meet and greet the drivers and riders who will represent Guyana against competitors from Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, the USA and Canada.
The club also plan to exhibit photographs depicting the history of the club and competitors and patrons will be afforded the opportunity to view them as well.
Tourism Minister Irfaan Ali has thrown his weight behind the initiative and has fully endorsed the efforts of the GMR&SC to maintain its proud reputation as being one of the best hosts of the CMRC with Meets also being held at Dover Raceway in Jamaica and Bushy Park in Barbados.
Traditionally, thousands of fans from all across the world come down to the South Dakota Circuit every year to witness the event which is second to none in relation to its organization and hospitality and the early promotion seems to suggest that the Organisers are pulling out all the stops to make this year’s event even bigger than last year’s.
There will be the usual International VIP Lounge where fans will be afforded first-class service in a comfortable and exclusive atmosphere accompanied by musical entertainment in addition to having the best view of the track.
With the re-surfaced track, the rivalry among the best drivers, riders and karters in the region is anticipated to be close and exciting and the early prediction is that most of the existing records will be shattered.
Guyana will be represented by the likes of the Vieira brothers (Mark and Paul), while the evergreen Andrew King, Viskok Persaud, Kevin Jeffrey, Keith Evelyn among others will look to thwart the ambitions of current leader in the Group 4 category Jamaican David Summerbell Jnr., fellow Jamaicans Doug ‘Hollywood’ Gore and Peter Rae and Barbadians Roger and Barry Mayers, Mark and Doug Maloney.
The major sponsors are: GT&T, Princess Hotel, Valvoline, Rent-a- Tent and Banks DIH.
