Tucker gearing towards improved performances

“I am keeping my times a secret but I can tell you, some persons that defeated me last race meet will get it this time.”
Those were the words of confident local motor biker Raveiro Tucker ahead of Sunday’s final round of the 2017 Caribbean Motor Racing Championships (CMRC) at the South Dakota Circuit.
Riding his black and yellow 2005 Yamaha R6, Tucker knows a herculean task

awaits him in the quest for a precious podium finish given the star-studded competition that’s expected.
Team Mohamed’s Enterprise Moto America champions Bryce Prince and Jason Aagilar along with British Matt Truelove will headline the powerful international group while on the local scene, he still has the likes of defending champion Matthew Vieira and the ever improving Kevin Persaud to contend.
“It is tough competition right now but I know I will be more competitive than the last meet so I’m very confident of what will happen.”
He added, “My plan is to learn something from them [team Mohamed’s Enterprise], learn their riding style, see why they are so good. I think we Guyanese instead of running from them should go run with them to see what their technique entails.”
On the local championship standings, Tucker has 48 points which puts him behind, leader Kevin Persaud (75), John Bennett (69) and Ravi Singh (55) and is setting his sights on a top-three finish.
“I don’t think I can win; I can finish in second or third if perform how I expect. I did an upgrade of the break shifter, some fuel management but it is coming along good despite the grip issues I have been suffering for the last three months.”
The meet which has been extended to two-days is expected to be one of the biggest the country has seen in recent years and the former St. Joseph High School Student is ready to thrill the fans.
“Fans can expect a lot from me. I always give it 100% last time I was in third and I fell away due to my fitness but that has improved a lot and I will be going hard.”
Tucker is grateful for the support of Palm court, Auto Toy store, B.M Soat Auto sales, Ramps logistics, Eldorado offshore, Samaroo Investments and The track restaurant and bar.
