The driver with the best reaction time during the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC)’s International Drag Race will benefit from $100 USD.
West Coast business Imran Auto Works has put up the prize for the person with the fastest reaction time to the port-a-tree system.
A statement from the club indicated that “Imran Auto Works has joined our sponsorship team for the upcoming international drag race event on August 25.”
