Historic mainstay Drag Racing to ignite Essequibo today

The venue underwent major works to be in top shape for the “Essequibo Invasion”.

The Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GRMSC) will stage its inaugural Drag Race meet in Essequibo today at the Mainstay/Whayaka Airstrip.

Dubbed ‘Essequibo Invasion’, the people of Essequibo will have their first taste of drag racing action in the historic meet.

In the past, the GMR&SC have talked about decentralizing the sport; primarily the shorter formats like drag racing and today’s ‘Essequibo Invasion’ has attracted several racers from Georgetown including motor racing stalwarts, Team Mohamed’s.
