A twenty-seven race programme was unveiled on Friday evening as the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) gets ready to host the final leg of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championships(CMRC).
The sturdy programme will feature two days of racing action, including the much-talked about Suzuki Radical SR-3 display on both days as well as drifting action.
According to the president of the Club, Rameez Mohamed, the 27 calendar events will have to be done over two days to ensure that there is enough time to run off the local and Caribbean Championships, as well as several new dimensions that the club is planning.
“We have a jam packed programme for November. There are so many things that we want to show the Guyanese public that we needed to have two full days of racing,” Mohamed said.
“Our committee has confirmed so far that there are going to be two professional drift cars from Trinidad to showcase their skillset for the locals,” The GMR&SC boss added.
He continued, “In addition to those drifters, there will the much-talked about SR-3 Radicals from Barbados. We have four coming for a couple of exhibitions. That is in addition to the foreign competitors for the Caribbean Championship.”
Mohamed noted that after looking at the programme, the volume of races was too much for one day, hence the committee decided to do qualifying and four events on Saturday, November 11.
The Saturday, he noted, will be treated as just a race day, with charges for spectators, safety precautions and rules applying.
Qualifications will also be held on Saturday morning from 10:00hrs, with races beginning from 14:00hrs. Scrutineering will take place on Thursday and Friday and before qualifications on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the club is organising weekend passes for those patrons desirous of viewing both days of action, as well as VIP passes.
