Mohammed’s Enterprise shifting motor racing up a gear

Team Mohammed Enterprise under the leadership of Azurdeen Mohammed over the last few years has created a paradigm shift in the way both investment and competition is done I regarding Motor racing in Guyana.

Most notably, they have two extremely fast Nissan GT-R cars, one of which is nicknamed “Godzilla,” which has decimated any close rival on the quarter-mile strip. More so, last year the team managed to acquire the services of Moto America Champion Bryce Prince and British rider Matt Truelove who taught their Caribbean counterparts at forgettable lesson at the final leg of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championships (CMRC) at the South Dakota Circuit, winning the Super stock and Superbike category respectively.
Though the likes of cousins Elliot, Matthew and Stephen Vieira attempted to pose a challenge, their machinery was undoubtedly no match for that of the foreigners.  It has already been rumored that the two foreign riders along with a motor car is expected for all four countries of CMRC which will certainly bring about intense competition among drivers and riders.
On Sunday, the team once again, entered the record books as the GT-R sped to a time of 7.569s to win the unlimited (7-seconds) category ahead of their other car, the Nissan Nismo which had a time of 8.906s.
Josh Ramsey, the American who drives the GTR told this publication that he loves the pressure  since everyone will always be aspiring to be beat him but hopefully it also prompt the other competitors to improve their standard.
“I love that pressure of being at the top, it is mostly having fun and being able to set the bar high for everybody that is what moves the sport forward as it promotes everybody to try to be better than the next guy,” he stated.
Ramsey  further  explained that  it is not just the twin-turbocharged V6 engine that makes  the car produced some remarkably fast times as compared to its competitors but  also the fact that it has lots of technological advancements.
“The car has got a lot of technology behind it that you won’t have in a normal car, even the computer, the whole design is to maximize what is desired to do, so we put good tyres on the car and we are able to watch wheel speed and traction, so as much power we are able to deliver we are able to maximize,” he revealed.
Asked the feeling of driving such a beast of a car, Ramsey responded saying, “Being in one  these cars is a little bit different, what you feel on a normal car, shifting in couple gear, with this it feels like that all the  way to a 160 kph and more where it is just holding you down.”
In a sport which dates back to 1950s, the investment to be best should be welcomes by all participants since from a holistic viewpoint, it can only auger well for the development of motor racing in Guyana (Akeem Greene)
