Fresh off some encouraging performances during the opening leg of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship (CMRC), local speedsters will have the chance to duplicate that display when the Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMRSC) stages its second National Race Meet on Sunday, July 7, at the South Dakota Circuit.
In an invited comment, Manager of the Club Rayon Samaroo told Kaieteur Sport Friday that racers from Canada, the USA and Suriname have already confirmed their participation and the Meet is anticipated to produce some scorching performances judging from what was witnessed in Jamaica last month where Guyanese drivers Afraz Allie, Syed Hassan and Kevin Jeffrey racked up valuable points for Guyana in the CMRC.
They, however, will be going up against some formidable opponents on the local scene and to say that they will dominate the day’s events is not a foregone conclusion.
Jeffrey, who campaigns in the Group 4 category will have reproduce the Jamaica performance where he chased done the likes of points leader in the CMRC Doug Gore and defending Caribbean champion David Summerbell Jnr, to repel the efforts of Andrew King and Mark Vieira, while Allie and Hassan, two of the leading drivers in the Group 2B Division, apart from their own rivalry will also have to deal with the skills of Suriname’s Oliver Tjin Liep Shie, Danny Persaud and John Joseph.
Samaroo added that the Superbikes category also promises to be just as exciting as the cars with the young brigade of Matthew Vieira and Nikhil Seereram expected to continue their competition and this will supplement the ‘big boys’ scrap that features Stephen Vieira, Carlos Rodrigues, Kwame Ridley and Carey Griffith.
The go-karts category is also billed to provide excitement and once again the young drivers are expected to take centre stage with Stanley Ming Jnr and Wayne Elliot Vieira throwing down the gauntlet on veterans Marcus Fiedtkou and Stanley Ming Snr.
Samaroo confirmed that all the categories have been subscribed and racing fans can be assured of a full and exhilarating day of daredevilry.
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
