The Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMRSC) is preparing to revolutionize regional motorsport with the introduction of a GT3 Spec class at the South Dakota Circuit on Sunday November 2, 2025. While Group 4 will remain unchanged, this move addresses the long-standing challenge of stagnant growth in the Caribbean’s top tier.
For years, the region has struggled to attract new Group 4 machinery, which has limited its competitiveness and fan excitement. In 2023, GMRSC shifted its focus beyond the Caribbean to Latin America and the broader motorsport world, where the GT3 has become the global benchmark. Featuring iconic machines such as Lamborghinis, Ferraris, McLarens, Audis, and Porsches, GT3 racing draws fans worldwide and delivers consistent, world-class competition.

Mark Vieira will be up against Franklyn Boodram and Junior Mohamed in an exciting clash to top machines.
A headline battle is already on the cards, as Trinidad and Tobago’s Franklyn Boodram will go head-to-head with Guyana’s Mark Vieira in GT3 machinery at the Caribbean Clash of Champions. Joining them on the grid will be Junior Mohamed’s AJM’s Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, adding even more excitement to what is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated races in recent memory. This clash of GT3 titans, Vieira’s Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, Boodram’s Renault Sport R.S. 01, and AJM’s GT3 entry, will serve as the headline race of the event, marking a new chapter in Caribbean motorsport.
With a few more cars expected to join the grid, this debut will be a critical test not only for GMRSC but for other teams across the region who will be watching closely to see how the new class unfolds.
One of the significant strengths of GT3 racing is its regulation under FIA standards, which provide detailed technical rules for every car. This makes GT3 racing far easier to manage compared to Group 4, where balancing performance (BoP) between different vehicles has been a constant challenge.
Unlike traditional six-lap sprint races at South Dakota, GT3 races will feature longer distances, allowing these high-performance machines to warm up their tires and deliver peak performance properly. Teams will also bring full trackside engineering crews, as the complexity of GT3 operations makes short sprint races unattractive. This shift will introduce fans to the authentic endurance-style racing environment that defines GT3 worldwide.
With growing interest in the GT3 Americas Series, Guyana could soon host a leg of the championship. Introducing GT3 is not just about adding a class; it’s about proving that the South Dakota Circuit and GMRSC are capable of staging international-grade motorsport.
For fans, the future looks thrilling: the roar of GT3 engines, longer wheel-to-wheel battles, and the promise of Guyana being placed firmly on the international racing map. (GMRSC release and photos)
