The next race is set to take place on June 20 and unlike other racing events, will start at 5pm. The reason behind this, is because the first leg of the regional championships will be taking place in Loskop on June 27.

Eight local racers will be participating in the upcoming event. They are Johann de Jager, Cathleen de Jager, Tiaan Buys, Pieter Bester Snr and Pieter Bester Jnr, as well as Hendrik van der Merwe, Imraan Ameer and JP Bruin.

Good luck to the drivers.
