FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cayman Motoring Federation Joins Caribbean Drag Racing Championship as New Associate
The Caribbean Drag Racing Championship (CDRC) proudly announces the Cayman Motoring Federation (CMF) as its newest Associate member. The Cayman Islands now joins Antigua, Barbados, Grenada, Guyana, St. Lucia, St. Vincent & the Grenadines, Trinidad & Tobago, and Jamaica in supporting this regionally unifying motorsport initiative.
As an Associate, the Cayman Motoring Federation will contribute to the continued growth and development of the CDRC’s structure, despite currently having no entrants in the Championship itself. Associates play a key role in strengthening the foundation of drag racing across the Caribbean.
Jane Scaletta, President of the Cayman Motoring Federation, shared:
“The Cayman Motoring Federation is proud to join the Caribbean Drag Racing Championship and fully supports this vital FIA-backed regional initiative. As the national sporting authority for motorsport in the Cayman Islands, we are committed to working with our Caribbean counterparts to raise the standard of drag racing, promote safety, and expand opportunities for regional and international competition.”
Chris Elliott, member of the FIA Drag Racing Commission, added:
“We’re delighted to welcome the Cayman Motoring Federation to the Caribbean Drag Racing Championship. This partnership reflects our shared commitment to the growth of drag racing in the region. We look forward to supporting each other through technical assistance, event collaboration, and initiatives that elevate the sport in the Cayman Islands and beyond. Welcome aboard!”
Stephen Gunter, Chairman of the Jamaica Millennium Motoring Club—which spearheaded the CDRC—also welcomed the new partnership:
“We thank the Cayman Motoring Federation for joining the CDRC and for their dedication to the development of drag racing in the region. We look forward to working together in building out the Championship and expanding its reach and impact across the Caribbean.”
The CDRC is a closed, invitation-only competition where racers are nominated by their National Sporting Authority (ASN) to represent their country at no cost to them. Racers accumulate points by competing in three locally staged national events. The top 16 competitors in each class—Pro Street (10.999 to 10.000 seconds) and Pro Race (9.999 to 9.000 seconds)—advance to the Championship Final in Jamaica, scheduled for January 2026.
Winners will receive trophies and prize money, with additional awards presented to the champion’s ASN. With the Cayman Motoring Federation’s inclusion, the CDRC strengthens its mission to unite the Caribbean through a shared passion for speed, competition, and collaboration.
