Petrolheads unite for Fun Dirt Time Attack event in Ermelo
Spectators were treated to an off-road thrill with a variety of vehicles putting their skills to the test.
Automotive aficionados and passionate vehicle enthusiasts descended upon the SX Race track, gathering for an event co hosted by Johan Strauss of SX Racing and Ermelo Toyota.
This gathering invited the daring to test their mettle on a wide range of wheels, from two-wheel bikes to quads, crawlers, and 4x4s. All ages enjoyed the spectacle, with motorcyclists showcasing their skills in an eduro race.

The rock crawlers stole the show as they attempted daring ascents on steep hills. One climb resulted in a crawler flipping before miraculously landing on its wheels. Fortunately, no serious injuries occurred.
The track was transformed into an obstacle course, challenging various vehicles to demonstrate their skill levels. Rally cars, bikes, and quads also kicked up dust on the straightaways, much to the delight of spectators. In addition, drag races were also carried out where people could challenge one another throughout the day.

Strauss expressed his gratitude to the event’s competitors, marshals, spectators and sponsors for making the day possible. He said he was considering making the dirt drag challenge a monthly event.
