Seejattan starts 2019 with strong performance

SHAN Seejattan sent a strong message to his fellow group two contenders when the flag dropped at the first National Race of Champions (NROC) hosted by the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC).

Seejattan opened the day with a race win when he beat out Rameez Mohamed and Roshan Ali, in that order, in the opening race.
Early mistakes from the East Coast man meant that Chet Singh and Rameez Mohamed were able to get by him, but after a tooth and nail fight, he was able to recover.

He was involved in a battle with Singh first before the latter had to make way due to mechanical issues. Then came Rameez, who passed Seejattan but was not able to remain there until the chequered flag.

Streetcross bikes on the grid

In the first Street Tuner race, it was Raymond Seebarran who finished ahead of Azad Hassan and Roshan Ali, respectively, while race two was almost a carbon copy, save Vickey Persaud, who completed the podium.
Race three was a repeat grid of race one.

In the Starlet cup, Rameez Mohamed won the first race ahead of Motilall Deodass and Roshan Ali.
Sport Tuner, on the other hand, had Nasrudeen Mohamed winning from Dawolu Harper and Adrian Fernandes, in that order, for race one with Shan Seejattan beating out Adrian and Mohamed Ahmed in race two.

Race three had Seejattan winning from Roshan Ali and Ahmed, in that order.
In the group 3 and 4 combined race, Andrew King was easily able to triump the competition without any real threat at the end after an early battle with Kevin Jeffrey grounded to a halt on account of a mechanical failure affecting the latter.

In the end, King finished ahead of Rameez Mohamed and Roshan Ali.
In an attempt to salvage a grid for another group 3 and 4 race, the organisers added the starlet cup class and it was Motilall Deodass who finished ahead of Rameez Mohamed and Roshan Ali, in that order. No group 4 or group 3 car completed the race.

In the Streetcross, there were three wins for Matthew Vieira.
The next competition on the calendar is the proposed Drag race meet billed for March 17.
