Jamaica is a beautiful island full of very talented automotive enthusiasts. Everyone hears about the great travel and cultural experiences Jamaica has to offer, but most don't hear about the automotive scene. Special thanks to Streetfire.net member "TREVAUN" we can watch excellent drag strip footage from the recent Jam West event held in Jamaica. The footage below shows the excellent skill of Jamaica's automobile performance scene.

It's not easy tuning in Jamaica....JPG)
Jamaica tuning is rather difficult due to the climate and elevation variance on the island. At sea level during a hot day will require a completely different tune than in the mountains during a cool night. The ability to tune for an all around vehicle that will perform adequately in both scenarios is a difficult but manageable task with the right skills.
Taking advantage of every possible way to eliminate heat and cool down the intake, Jamaica's fastest vehicles are capable of well below 10 second quarter mile times. Beyond climate challenges, the quest to find parts and vehicles can also be rather difficult. Kudos to Jamaica's tuners for accomplishing what most only dream.
