Seejatan dominates Group Two
GMR&SC National Race of Champions…
– Jeffrey misses Group 4 sweep
Shan Seejatan was impressive on Sunday at the South Dakota Circuit as he dominated the Group Two Class in the second round of the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) National Race of Champions.
Seejatan, sporting number 275 on his Honda Civic started at the back of the grid following his failure to qualify on Saturday.
He progressed up the ladder nicely and found the opportune moment to command the race when an incident between Rameez Mohamed and Kemal Rahaman provided a stroke of luck.
Race two saw Seejatan, Mohamed and Rahaman engaging in an intriguing battle that had Seejatan emerge victorious.
Another driver who was a cut above the rest was Stefan Jeffrey. In race one, even though Jeffrey started on the pole, he was caught off guard and dropped to third before making it back to the top following Mohamed’s machine experiencing some failures.

After that, Jeffrey suffered no setback and completely dominated in his class.
The Starlet cup continues to be lively with Mohamed, Anand Ramchand, Motilall Deodass and Afraz Allie pressing the competition.
Rameez was able to go clear when Ramchand’s machine began malfunctioning in race one before Afraz Allie was able to pick up a comfortable win in the second race while Deodass picked up the final win of the day.
Group Four saw Kristian Jeffrey perform in a no nonsense mood as he missed a clean sweep of the three races when a mini malfunction in race two caused him to retire.
Andrew King (Mazda RX7) and Mark Vieira (Mazda RX8) engaged in an almost nostalgic battle but they were no match for Jeffrey’s Mitsubishi Evolution.
Superbikes returned to South Dakota as well with Matthew Vieira winning two of the three pro class races and Kevin Persaud taking the other.
Sports Tuners (1600cc) was not short of action either, a clinical battle ensuing every race between Nasrudeen Mohamed and Mohamed Ahmad, the latter picking up two wins with Mohamed picking up the third.
Street tuner (1500cc) class saw Troy Muir pick up two wins each as well with Zafiero Ramirez picking up a win on debut.
125CC action was also a closely knit contest between the Boodram Brothers, Nicholas and Stefan and Mattew Vieira.
The club has set Thursday evening for the presentation of trophies.
