Guyana’s Kahlil Rickford has earned his spot on the virtual grid, officially qualifying for the North America E-Sport Championship and preparing to represent the nation this weekend in Santo Domingo.
The achievement marks a significant step in Rickford’s career, moving him closer to the highest level of international competitive sim racing.
This isn’t the first time the young digital athlete has flown the ‘Golden Arrowhead’ banner on the continental stage. In 2023, Rickford gained crucial experience at the South American E-Sport Championship in Brazil, where he battled against some of the region’s top virtual drivers.
That earlier exposure has proved invaluable, helping to sharpen his racecraft and mentally prepare him for the intense pressure cooker environment of the North America championship.
As he prepares for the competition, the focus is on translating that gained experience into performance. Rickford carries the collective ambition of Guyana’s motorsport community, which views his participation as vital exposure for the country in the fast-growing world of esports.
The Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMRSC) has publicly extended its full support and best wishes to Rickford as he aims to secure a top finish on the virtual asphalt in Santo Domingo.
