PTRT

In every endeavor, there must be a vision, a drive and a sense of purpose.  A successful outcome is realized with determination, discipline and the burning desire to lead.               

This has been the mission of Sheldon, manager of the Partytime Racing Team, which has played an integral part in making the sport of Drag Racing in Trinidad & Tobago comparable to international standards.

                The team has dominated the sport and has been known to dictate the pace since its inception in 1987, with its debut at Wallerfield in the 17-second bracket. Sheldon, behind the wheel of a Ford 2000 Escort emerged victorious, setting precedence for approximately the next twenty years, which is evident in the accomplishments of the Party Time Racing Team.

• The first 9-second, 8-second and 7-second times ever recorded at Wallerfield were all achieved by the Party Time Racing Team.
• Low 8-second runs (8.00 - 8.20) were regular feats attained since 1996.
•  In 1999, at the Puerto Rico International Speedway, an NHRA track, Sheldon and his team recorded the fastest time for a local driver, blistering down the quarter mile strip in 7.1 seconds at a top speed of approximately 188 mph. A national record that was only bettered by PTRT in 2008.
• In April 2003, with a newly built NHRA certified dragster, the Party Time Racing Team attempted to clock a 6-second quarter mile run with speeds exceeding 200 mph (on a gasoline powered/nitrous dragster). Few cars and drivers worldwide have ever achieved such an accomplishment at that time.
• As of late 2008, Sheldon Bissessar and the Party Time Racing Team, have teamed up with tuner, Aaron Sipple of ASE & IRONMAN Chassis.  Since then, the duo has accomplished in two short events what it takes most racers years to do:

A race car requires intense attention to detail. All calculations, tuning and testing is done by the Party Time Racing Team. The team believes that the secret of success is truly understanding every aspect of the race car and making use of the most advanced products and services available. A calm and professional approach at all levels; from the garage to the racetrack is a valuable asset in this highly dangerous sport. The team is of the opinion that international drag racing has a long and bright future ahead and that many more wins and records are in store for the team.

 The team over the years, has changed faces but the vision has remained.  The team not only works on it's own cars but use their expertise in setting up and successfully tuning other race cars. For example, the Showtime Rail, the MintCars Rail (both old and new versions) and more recently both versions of the Llumar Rail.The latter being the only car other than Sheldon’s to touch into the 6 sec. bracket in Trinidad. (a feat racing pundits say was never possible in Trinidad and Tobago). The team also offers assistance, advice and technical information and support to other teams and racers. The team is also willing to assist anyone who asks.
