SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL DIRT CHAMPIONSHIP THIS WEEKEND AT TYGERBERG RACEWAY!!

Kraaifontein, SA | Nov. 26, 2013 - Tygerberg Raceway will be hosting the DO4SA National Event on Nov. 30th, where-after the South African Champion will be crowned. Ratified by MSA, SASCOC and the Dept Sport & Recreatio, this will be the ONLY recognized SA Championship in the country for Dirt Oval Track Racing in 2013. Any other competitor claiming to be the South African Champion (or SA1) will, therefore, be a fraud (like a false license plate on a road-car which is not registered on the E-Natis system). To be a South African Champion (SA1), your result needs to be registered with the relevant authorities, which will be the case following this prestigious DO4SA event.

Last weekend in the Late Model division, “SIR“ Chris Liebenberg showed everyone why he deserves that national title as he once again was in devastating form and nobody could get remotely close to him. Only Otto Graven and Thys Valentyn managed to hang in there. 

SUPERVAN Sarel vd Merwe was systematically getting used to his LM and got his maiden win in race 2 but bad luck hit him in the finals when once again the steering rack of his car broke at the same place on the track as at the last event. However Gabrie Gelderblom, Danie Sandenbergh, Jean Steyl, Willie Dames, Karel Bakker, Altru de Klerk and a late arriving Eerick Horn put up a stunning show between them for the minor places and the racing was very close and tight between all of them.

During one of the heat races Altru de Klerk tried extremely hard to pass Danie Sandenbergh in T2 and climed all over him resulting in pieces of de Klerk’s LM being shread off his car in T1 luckily both cars survived to the end of proceedings… When the THUNDER BOYS were done it was… 1st Chris Liebenberg, 2nd Otto Graven, 3rd Thys Valentyn.
