Trans Racing Team is honoured to carry the Guyanese flag into its first international competition as a fully independent team. This milestone represents more than just competition it’s about proving what can be achieved when passion meets purpose, even in the absence of institutional backing.
The team’s racing schedule began with a high-profile event in Guyana on Sunday, May 18, at GMR&SC’s Endurance Meet, competing in the Vitz Cup Group. This will be followed by participation in the Wallerfield Cup Finals in Trinidad on May 24–25, then back to Guyana on June 1 for the 1320 Heat Drag Racing Event. The journey will conclude with a final competition in Suriname. In preparation, the team will be shipping their competition cars in advance to each destination.
