Sponsorship Drives Our Mission Forward

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands

At the Cayman Motoring Federation (CMF), every event we organise is made possible through the support of our volunteers, members, and, importantly, our sponsors. As a non-profit organisation, sponsorship is more than just financial support—it is an investment in safer roads, stronger communities, and the future of motorsport in the Cayman Islands.

Sponsorship allows CMF to deliver affordable, professionally organised events that introduce drivers to motorsport in a safe and controlled environment while promoting responsible driving skills. It helps us provide equipment, safety measures, event logistics, volunteer support, training opportunities, and programmes that benefit competitors and the wider community alike.

We are incredibly grateful to MotorZone for stepping forward as the Headline Sponsor of our 9 August Auto Slalom event. As a growing automotive business in the Cayman Islands, MotorZone has demonstrated its commitment to supporting local motorsport and helping create opportunities for drivers of all experience levels to enjoy the sport safely.

We would also like to recognise our long-standing sponsor, AutoSpa, whose continued support has helped CMF grow our Auto Slalom programme over the years. Their ongoing commitment to the Federation and the local motorsport community has played an important role in building the success and sustainability of our events.

Corporate partnerships like these enable CMF to continue delivering grassroots motorsport, road safety initiatives, youth development programmes, STEM Racing, sustainability projects, and community events throughout the year. Every sponsorship dollar is reinvested into programmes that benefit the Cayman Islands and help develop the next generation of drivers, officials, volunteers, and motorsport enthusiasts.

To MotorZone and AutoSpa, thank you for believing in our vision and helping us make a positive impact. We encourage our members and the wider community to support the businesses that support local sport.

 

Together, we are building a stronger, safer, and more vibrant motorsport community in the Cayman Islands.

CMF Auto Slalom League, marking another significant milestone

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands

The Cayman Motoring Federation (CMF) successfully hosted Event #4 of the 2026 CMF Auto Slalom League, marking another significant milestone in the continued growth of grassroots motorsport in the Cayman Islands.

With 13 competitors and more than 40 spectators, the event attracted the largest turnout since the programme began, demonstrating the growing interest in safe, affordable and accessible motorsport. The event also achieved another important milestone with three female drivers participating, the highest female participation in a CMF Auto Slalom event to date, reinforcing the Federation’s commitment to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone interested in motorsport.

The Cayman Motoring Federation’s Auto Slalom programme was launched in 2024 with support from the FIA Motorsport-in-a-Box (MSIB) Programme, which provided both funding and professional steward training for the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) . That investment established the governance, safety standards and operational knowledge needed to build a sustainable grassroots motorsport programme in the Cayman Islands.

From a single Auto Slalom event in 2024, the programme expanded to four events in 2025 and has now evolved into a six-event national championship in 2026. The league continues to provide a safe and structured entry point into motorsport while developing drivers, officials, volunteers and future motorsport leaders.

Scoring is a combined score of the two fastest out of three laps.

Building Safer Drivers and Safer Roads

Auto Slalom is designed to improve driving skills in a safe, controlled environment away from public roads. Drivers navigate a temporary cone course that challenges precision, vehicle control, braking, acceleration and cornering techniques rather than outright speed.

By learning how their vehicles respond under different driving conditions, participants develop skills that transfer directly to everyday driving. This helps build greater confidence, improved hazard awareness and better decision-making behind the wheel.

Unlike illegal street racing, Auto Slalom takes place on private property under strict safety regulations with trained officials, marshals, timing personnel and emergency procedures. Every event is professionally organised to FIA standards, providing a safe environment where drivers can learn, improve and enjoy motorsport responsibly.

CMF President Jane Scaletta said the continued growth of the programme reflects the vision established when the Federation first introduced Auto Slalom through the FIA Motorsport-in-a-Box initiative.

“This was our largest Auto Slalom event since launching the programme in 2024, with 13 competitors and more than 40 spectators supporting the event. We are especially proud to welcome a record three female drivers, demonstrating that Auto Slalom provides an accessible, welcoming and safe introduction to motorsport for everyone. The support we received from the FIA through the Motorsport-in-a-Box Programme and steward training gave us the professional foundation to build this programme correctly from the beginning. Today we are seeing that investment pays dividends through safer events, growing participation and stronger community engagement.”

CMF Vice President Rhondel Ramdath, who oversees the volunteer and marshal programme, recognised the people working behind the scenes.

“Events like these simply would not happen without our volunteers, marshals and officials. They arrive early, work throughout the day and remain focused on safety from the first car to the final run. Their commitment is building a professional motorsport culture in the Cayman Islands, and the Federation is incredibly grateful for their dedication.”

Race Director Rory Scheepers praised both the standard of competition and the professionalism displayed throughout the day.

“Every event continues to raise the standard of driving in Cayman. It was encouraging to see experienced competitors challenged by newcomers while everyone demonstrated respect for the rules, the officials and each other. Auto Slalom is about precision, consistency and control, and those are the same skills that make safer drivers on our roads.”

Thank You to Our Sponsors

The Cayman Motoring Federation extends its sincere appreciation to MotorZone and AutoSpa for their support of the 2026 Auto Slalom League. Their commitment to grassroots motorsport enables CMF to continue developing safe, affordable motorsport opportunities while promoting responsible driving throughout the Cayman Islands.

The Federation also thanks every volunteer, marshal, official, timekeeper and supporter whose commitment and professionalism continue to make each event a success.

With only two rounds remaining, championship battles in the Stock, Modified and Heavy classes remain wide open, setting the stage for an exciting conclusion to the inaugural six-event CMF Auto Slalom League. Next two events are scheduled for 20 September and 25 October.

Lucky Rabbit Cayman Motorsports Sponsor

Celebrating Our Long-Standing Partnership with Lucky Rabbit

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands

The Cayman Motoring Federation (CMF) is proud to recognise and thank Lucky Rabbit for its continued support of grassroots motorsport in the Cayman Islands.

For several years, Lucky Rabbit has demonstrated a genuine passion for motorsport by standing alongside CMF as a valued sponsor and supporter. Most recently, they sponsored our May and July Auto Slalom events, helping us deliver two successful rounds of the 2026 Auto Slalom League while also actively promoting the events through their own marketing channels.

As a non-profit organisation, sponsorship is about much more than financial assistance. One of the greatest benefits our sponsors provide is helping us reach audiences we simply could not reach on our own. When sponsors share our events across their social media platforms and networks, they introduce new people to motorsport, encourage greater community participation, and help grow awareness of the positive work CMF is doing in road safety and grassroots driver development.

This expanded reach is invaluable. Every shared post, event announcement, or word of encouragement helps attract new competitors, volunteers, families, and supporters, strengthening the motorsport community in the Cayman Islands.

Lucky Rabbit has been an important part of that journey, and we sincerely appreciate their enthusiasm, partnership, and belief in what we are building. Their ongoing commitment helps ensure that our Auto Slalom League continues to provide a safe, affordable, and enjoyable environment where drivers can develop their skills while promoting responsible driving.

 

From everyone at the Cayman Motoring Federation, thank you, Lucky Rabbit, for being a long-standing sponsor and a true supporter of local motorsport. We look forward to continuing this partnership and growing the sport together for many years to come.

Successful Round 3 of the Cayman Motoring Federation Auto Slalom League

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands

The Cayman Motoring Federation (CMF) successfully hosted Round 3 of its six-event Auto Slalom League on Sunday, 12 July 2026, at the Foster’s Airport Overflow Parking Lot, with the generous support of Lucky Rabbit, the event sponsor.

The third round welcomed eight competitors, evenly divided between the Stock and Modified classes, and attracted one of the largest spectator crowds seen at a CMF Auto Slalom event to date. The growing attendance reflects the increasing popularity of grassroots motorsport in the Cayman Islands and the community’s enthusiasm for safe, skill-based driving competition.

Auto slalom is a precision driving discipline where competitors navigate a course of traffic cones against the clock. Unlike traditional racing, drivers compete individually rather than wheel-to-wheel, making the sport one of the safest and most accessible forms of motorsport for drivers of all ages and experience levels.

CMF President Jane Scaletta said the continued growth of the League reflects the Federation’s long-term vision.

“Watching our Auto Slalom League continue to grow is incredibly rewarding. We are creating a welcoming environment where anyone can experience motorsport safely while becoming a better driver. We are equally proud of our commitment to environmental sustainability and the partnerships that help us demonstrate that motorsport and responsible environmental practices can work together. We sincerely thank Lucky Rabbit for sponsoring this event and helping make another successful round possible.”

The CMF Auto Slalom League consists of six championship events held throughout the year. At each event, every driver completes three timed runs, with their best two runs combined to determine their final score. This format rewards both consistency and precision while allowing competitors the opportunity to improve throughout the day. Championship points are accumulated across the season, with league champions crowned at the end of the six-event series.

The League is designed for drivers of all skill levels, from first-time competitors to experienced enthusiasts. Beyond competition, the programme forms an important part of the Cayman Motoring Federation’s commitment to road safety, providing participants with a controlled environment to develop vehicle control, improve hazard awareness, enhance confidence, and build safer driving habits that transfer directly to Cayman roads.

CMF Vice President Rhondel Ramdath emphasized the Federation’s wider objectives.

“Auto slalom is far more than a motorsport competition. It gives drivers an opportunity to better understand their vehicles, improve decision-making under pressure and develop skills that contribute to safer roads for everyone. This programme is an important part of CMF’s road safety strategy.”

Environmental sustainability also remained a key focus throughout the event. As part of CMF’s ongoing partnership with Refuel, competitors and volunteers were encouraged to complete a sustainability survey designed to increase awareness of environmentally responsible motorsport practices. Participants who completed the survey were entered to receive fuel certificates, generously provided by Refuel, reinforcing the company’s commitment to promoting sustainability within motorsport.

Race Director Rory Scheepers praised the continued growth of the League.

“The standard of driving continues to improve with every event. Auto slalom is about precision, consistency and learning. It’s rewarding to see new drivers gaining confidence while experienced competitors continue to challenge themselves. The atmosphere on Sunday demonstrated just how much interest there is in grassroots motorsport in Cayman.”

Clerk of the Course Adis Kevorkian highlighted the professionalism shown throughout the day.

“Every event is built on preparation, teamwork and safety. Our volunteers, officials and competitors all played their part in delivering another smooth and enjoyable event. Seeing drivers improve run after run is exactly what auto slalom is designed to achieve.”

The event also showcased the next generation of motorsport volunteers. Fourteen-year-old Alena Kevorkian once again played an important role by serving as the event Master of Ceremonies (MC) while also operating the official timing system throughout the competition.

Although not yet old enough to compete herself, Alena has become an enthusiastic supporter of the sport.

“I love being involved in the events and seeing how every driver improves throughout the day. Even though I can’t compete yet, being part of the team has taught me so much about motorsport, teamwork and responsibility. I can’t wait until I can participate.”

The Cayman Motoring Federation welcomes new competitors throughout the season and encourages anyone interested in improving their driving skills to participate in future events. Whether driving a completely standard road car or a modified vehicle, Auto Slalom provides a safe, fun and professionally managed environment to develop driving ability while enjoying the excitement of motorsport.

The CMF extends its appreciation

to Lucky Rabbit for sponsoring Round 3, Refuel for supporting the Federation’s sustainability initiative, and to the many volunteers, officials, competitors and spectators who contributed to another successful event.

At the same time, they bring together people of all ages who share a passion for cars and motorsport, helping us continue to build a strong and supportive motorsport community in the Cayman Islands.”

Fastest Female Driver Alison Scheepers said, “I was encouraged to do the auto slalom today as they are trying to grow the women’s category.
