Balram Auto Mechanic/Team Trans Pacific to field five cars on Sunday

BALRAM Ramdeo, the principal of Balram Auto Mechanic, has declared that he will walk away with the accolade for ‘Best Mechanic’ when the curtain falls on the 2022 Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMRSC) International drag race meet. Drivers from at least four countries will be conpeting.

The former ‘Best Mechanic’ winner, Ramdeo, during an invited comment with Chronicle Sport, disclosed that his camp, in partnership with Team Trans Pacific Motor Spares & Auto Sales, will be fielding a total of five cars come Sunday at the South Dakota 1320 strip.

Ramdeo has confidently predicted that his machines will dominate their respective classes. His garage boasts a formidable lineup, all locally built, and includes an unlimited class Alteeza with a 2Jz powered engine that will be driven by Rameez Mohamed.

Principal of Team Trans Pacific, Krishna Ramsewack, will be behind the wheel of the 2Jz Toyota Verossa while Romeo Singh will take control of one of two 5e Toyota Glanza. The fifth car is a Mark II 1Jz.
“As long as everything goes well, we will get a good race and a good showdown,” head mechanic Balram Ramdeo shared with this publication during a visit to his garage located at Lusignan, East Coast Demerara.

Ahead of most drag racing meets, Balram often touts exceptional performances with the Trans Pacific-sponsored Toyota Altezza. Unfortunately, mechanical issues have curtailed the machine unleashing its true power. However, Balram ensured that will not be the case this outing as Team Guyana look to aggressively defend their turf against the T&T and Suriname invasion.
Meanwhile, competitors are advised that the registration for this weekend’s event closes today. Tickets for fans cost $2 000 for adults; $1 000 for kids, and are on sale at the club’s Thomas Lands office.
