The Jamaica Millennium Motoring Club (JMMC) with support from KFC, Tru Juice, Rum Bar and The Automotive Performance Centre Ltd. held its first championship points scoring event of the 2011 season when it staged Dexterity #1 at the Badda Badda Raceway in Richmond, Priory, St. Ann on Sunday, February 6, 2011. Early morning showers threatened to dampen the spirits of the organizers who had already been forced to postpone the event from its original January 16 scheduled date, when extensive flood damage made the venue unusable, but by 9 a.m., the sun broke through the clouds and quickly dried up the surface moisture, leaving the track dry and tractable for the competitors who were in attendance.
