The first leg of the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club’s (GMR&SC) National Race of Champions (NROC) will boost off this Sunday at the South Dakota Circuit and as the time winds down before race day, the corporate community is throwing major support behind the usually successful event.
Recently joining the list of sponsors were Miracle Optical and R. Kissoon Contracting.
Yesterday, Miracle Optical confirmed their well received sponsorship for the one-day meet which has been packed with a 24-race programme. Handing over the cheque to GMRSC’s Serika Mohamed was Romeo Singh of the eye specialisation company.
