Registration open as GMR&SC’s Dexterity and Auto gains momentum

With the date fast approaching for the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club’s Dexterity and Auto Expo, registration is now open, and the club is urging interested parties to register.
Sponsored by ENET, GuyOil, and Castrol, the April 11 event, set for the National Track and Field Centre parking lot in Leonora, is gaining traction among car enthusiasts.
According to a spokesman for the GMR&SC, registration has commenced at the club’s Thomas Lands office and online (https://forms.gle/cWd43mxYdEMxeDWd9), with those interested urged to sign up as soon as possible.
“This is something not new to motorsport, but it’s something that we’ve been wanting to bring back for some time now. It’s a lighter side of motorsport which we used to have fun with in the early days, and we think now is the right time to bring it back.
“Already this week, we’ve received interest from numerous competitors wanting to find out what the event is and how they can be a part of it, and it’s very heartwarming,” the spokesman said.
The event will feature a series of challenges open to all classes of cars and bikes and is not a show of power but one of skill, nimbleness, and agility.
“What we want to show is that motorsport isn’t all about power, there are times when control and skill are very important, and that’s what dexterity is about,” the spokesman continued.

“We intend to run it on a similar class system to how we run our endurance racing: 0-1500cc, 1501cc-1600cc, 1601cc-2000cc, and unlimited. Of course, we will separate bikes and cars into their own classes.
“So far, we have six or seven different obstacle courses to choose from because in essence, that is what dexterity is: mapping your way through an obstacle course with your machine in the fastest possible time.”
The event will feature a lineup of racing action, including racing challenges, motorcycle stunt riding, and competitive go-karting as well as a drifting exhibition.
Following the dexterity event, the club will also host an auto expo to deepen the local network of car culture.
“We also decided to host an auto expo where fans of the sport can get up close and personal with some of the favourite drivers and machines. We are using this as a way to give people a gateway to access motorsport,” the spokesman said.
Admission is $2000, making the event accessible to motorsports fans of all ages, with gates opening at 16:00h.
