MATTHEW Truelove and his brother Harry whipped their competitors this weekend as the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship (CMRC) round three rolled into Barbados.

Matthew swept the competition in the CMRC superstock class, winning ahead of his brother, Harry, on all three occasions.

Matthew, who also reset the CMRC superstock lap record on two occasions, was in no mood to play after Saturday’s qualification left him on pole with his brother, Harry, second.

The old record of 1:01.910 was eclipsed in race one with 1:01.7 and later in race two with 1:01.542, which will represent a new superstock record.

Matthew Vieira was also able to find the podium on all three occasions as well as the Guyanese wrapped up the weekend with all three steps of the podium filled.

In the group two class, Rameez Mohamed finished fourth in race one and fifth in race two but did not finish race three, with Trinidad’s Justin Sanguinette winning two and finishing second in one and Marc Gill finishing first on one occasion and twice in second spot.

There were no competitors in Group three for Guyana but Trinidad’s Ronald Wortman finished on top the podium in all three races.

In the group four class, there were wins each for Mark Vieira, Mark Maloney and Andrew King.

Maloney was the winner on the first occasion after battling from the back of the pack, eventually getting past Mark Vieira on the penultimate lap to the chequered flag.

Race two saw the battle continue with Vieira going neck and neck with Maloney but suffering a punctured tire, leaving him out of the race. Maloney also fell out a little later, leaving Andrew King to take the chequred flag.

In the final race of the afternoon, it was Mark Vieira’s turn to cross the line first, leaving Justin Maloney a distant second and Andrew King third.

The team begins returning home tomorrow.
