Hi all the team of about 10 tnt cars are in Guyana this weekend for the final CMRC event for 2016 . Our own Luke Bhola will be competing in a field of over 25 cars , he is going into this event as the points leader but must have a clear win in order to win overall. Its going to be close racing , i was a bit buisy this wk as he left at 3 am on Thursday morning. Please keep our team in your prayers for safety and victory. Thanks.

Well I wish Luke and the rest of the team all the very best this weekend. I particularly hope Luke is victorious in all his races and that he brings home the CMRC Group 2 championship.

All the best to Luke and to the entire T&T team in Guyana !

I think they did very well, Luke qualified 2nd with time 38.37 and pole sitter got a 38.27 so out of 14 cars it was not bad as it was his first time on that track. I will share more on thur over a lite beverage see you all then.

Hello Ramesh and others,

Yes indeed and Congratulations to them all because I happened to read (pic included) big headlines "TT drivers win Caribbean circuit title" in the NEWSDAY Newspapers (Saturday Nov. 19th.) about Luke B. and other T&T drivers ending a drought of over 20 years with a stunning CMRC victory in 2016 ... Plus how the country's victory was made extra special as it was the 50th. anniversary since the first TT driver competed in Guyana last weekend.

For those of you who want to have a read of this newspaper - I kept it for the next slotcar race meeting
