Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club’s (GMRSC) national championship which is being dubbed ‘Ignite’ is creating much buzz in the local motor racing community and the event, which will also feature the final round of the Seaboard Marine Caribbean Motor Racing Championship (CMRC), is expected to see a large turnout of drivers as it is also the final circuit racing event locally.
Head of the GMRSC, Rameez Mohamed, noted to Kaieteur Sport that he is really pleased with the tremendous support that the motor racing body has been receiving from the corporate community, while noting that KGM security firm and R. Kissoon Contracting services are the latest companies to confirm their support.
“We are happy to have KGM and R. Kissoon on board with the Ignite race meet next month. We (the GMRSC) know that this is a big step for these two companies and we are pleased to see them join motorsports in Guyana,” Mohamed noted.
“We foresee these new partnerships taking the sport to new levels and we want to thank the management of both businesses for putting their faith in us,” Mohamed continued.
CEO of KGM, Ravin Alphonso, in a statement to the media, thanked the GMRSC for giving him the opportunity to support the rapidly improving sport, while positing his belief that Guyana has what it takes to regain the overall title from the Trinidadians.
Meanwhile, the final leg of the CMRC is expected to see competition from Trinidad, Barbados, Jamaica, the United States and Canada as well as Europe.
