Kaieteur Sports – Local automotive company and paint distributers Bumper To Bumper Services has teamed up with Starlet Cup and Group three competitor Nyron Maraj ahead of next weekend’s ENET Caribbean Clash of Champions race meet.
Maraj, who is in the running for the B.M. SOAT Sponsored Starlet Cup trophy will now carry the company’s brand as well as their U-Pol Raptor Guard finish aboard his number 868 Toyota Starlet.
At a brief handing over ceremony earlier in the week, General Manager Bobby David Katwaroo explained that the company has always been involved in motorsport through one avenue or the other.
“We have always been involved in motorsport. This time around we decided to go with one of the guys who we know uses our brand of products and we think from a marketing standpoint, the race applications of our products will show themselves.
He also explained why they chose to go under the U-Pol raptor guard brand.

Shenell Ornella Rodrigues- Bumper To Bumper Services Associate hands over the sponsorship cheque to Nyron Maraj.
“The Raptor Guard, which is a product of U-Pol has many applications which may require an abrasive surface like the wheel wells of cars and others and we think that this is a great place to show its quality.”
Maraj in his invited comment, said, “Bumper to Bumper Services has been an integral part in the development of the car. This deal is a twofold deal that will encompass both financial and material services.”
So what that means is that in addition to help offsetting the expenses for this event, they are also giving to the team materials to help prepare the car, one of which is the U-Pol Raptor Guard.”
Apart from their U-Pol brand, the company also distributes PPG Global, Maxmeyer, and Lechler through their 30 Anira Street, Queenstown Location.
Set for November 4 and 5 at the South Dakota Circuit, the ENET Clash of Champions will feature several groups of racing with the BM Soat Starlet cup attracting huge fan support over the last year.
Maraj, whose car is also sponsored by Team Trini Autoworks, Nedds Bakery, I-Sun Health Conscious Foods, Asif Trucking, MACs Tire service and Auto Sales and Sonrize Engineering, sits third in the championship on 74 points, 26 behind second place Steven Nobrega and a further 18 points behind leader Anand Ramchand.
