Interest heightens for Saturday’s GMRSC Race Challenge at National Park
– Team JR Burgers unveiled
Just to add a pinch of dynamism to Saturday’s Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club Race Challenge (Dexterity) Meet scheduled for the National Park Tarmac, Team JR Burgers have joined the growing list of contenders for the overall title.
Yesterday, the team that comprises father and son Jad and Ryan unveiled their car for the event which will be a Ford Cosworth and Kaieteur Sport was offered the opportunity to see the machine unveiled in the presence of club officials at the team’s garage on Sandy Babb Street.
Both Rahamans expressed confidence of doing well and even threw down the gauntlet on all contenders who dare to challenge them for the title.

The event which is returning after a bit of a hiatus will test the skills and handiness of the competitors as they try to navigate between a number of obstacles and pylons on different courses in the shortest possible time.
According to a member of the Organising Committee, the Course will be changed after every round and this he said will pose the biggest challenge for the competitors, but more importantly add more fun to the event.
He added that persons have been using the social network to inquire about what the event is all about and according to him, it is all about providing an opportunity for persons who’re already involved in the sport and those who’ve never had the chance to compete, to do so on the same track.
“It may surprise some that you may very well find some good drivers who’ve never competed before outduel those with circuit experience so I urge fans to come out and witness this segment of racing that has been missing for sometime right here in Georgetown,” the official stated.
It is also anticipated that a few female drivers have expressed interest in going up against their male counterparts in the battle for supremacy.
Meanwhile, the Organisers are urging all competitors to observe that safety and the well being of everyone will be the watchword on Saturday and is therefore advising all to walk with their helmets and proper seat belts.
Competitors are also being advised that an official Booth will be set up to register all those interested in competing and this could be done from 12:00 hrs, while a period for practice sessions will follow the registration process before the competition begins.
JR Burgers and a full drinks bar will be there for patrons as well.
Action time is 16:00 hrs and Rent-a-Tent Floodlights will be available.
Parking and security is also assured.
