Regional Dragsters to renew rivalry in four days
In four days time, Guyanese dragsters will renew their rivalry with regional counterparts in what has now become an enduring battle for supremacy in the sport of motor racing.
Part of the action at the last Drag Meet.
After spending much time carefully fine tuning their respective machines local dragsters along with those from Suriname will take to the track, at the South Dakota Circuit in another highly anticipated showdown that is sure to create much excitement for the fans.
As part of Guyana’s ‘Golden Jubilee’ celebrations the Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMR&SC) International Drag Race Meet is anticipated to produce some scorching times and breathtaking competition.
The locals have always had stiff opposition from the Surinamese and while the respective parties have exploited home court advantage expertly, the quality of machines that are coming from the Dutch territory is a strong indication of how serious they are taking the Meet.
Local competitor Anand Ramchand who had hinted about competing in four categories with a similar amount of cars, also has his sights set on obliterating the current records in the respective categories, while Rondell Daby’s lightening fast Evolution is always a treat to watch.
Some of the other competitors expected to live up at the starting grid are: Chet Singh, Shairaz Roshandin, Syed Ali, Danny Persaud and Sanjay Persaud.
The Porta Tree Timing System which is equipped with specialized starting lights will be in effect come race day.
The first race start at 09:00 hrs and admission for adults is $1000, while children under-12 and vehicles are free.
