Mainstream auto exhibitions will return to Guyana in a big way as the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club gears up to host its “Platinum Auto Expo” next month.
The lucrative competition will allow for mechanics, technicians, graphic designers and vehicle owners (cars, buses and bikes) to show off their prized and fully decked out vehicles.
Come August 5, vehicles will be judged in various categories such as graphics, face and sound, just to name a few. The competition currently has a total of 27 categories, all of which will have a trophy or cash prize attached for the winners. In the sound department the organisers are contemplating the use of technology over the human ear, so as to make the competition much fairer.
Guyoil, under its Super 95 brand, and ANSA McAL, under its Stag brand, are on board as the major sponsors of the event.
“ANSA MCAL believes in innovation and achieving excellence in anything that we

do. As such, we believe that Platinum will deliver an exhibition to the highest standard. We expect that throughout the years there will be an increase in qualitative development within this industry and we look forward to cooperation,” ANSA McAL’s Saekwon McGarrell said.
For other attractions, the event will feature performances by popular entertainers such as “Granny Ivelaw”, “Chiney Man” and “Chow Pow”. Also, several businesses will have their products and services on display.
The organisers have collaborated with the Malteenoes Sports Club, which is adjacent to the GMR&SC. The grounds of Malteenoes will be used for parking, and the organisers have guaranteed that all security measures are in place for those who wish to utilise the facility.
The registration fee stands at $1500 and interested persons can contact the organisers on 617-2651 or 627-2369 or register at Golyn and Sons. Registration is currently opened and will remain open until 12:00h on competition day, August 5. Patrons can uplift their tickets at Golyn and Sons locations, A Ally and Son, M&M Snackette and Medicare Pharmacy.
