Is the airstrip still that very rough stony tar? I heard that people were doing some serious damage to their tyres there.

 

[Hellas]

Couldn't be too good for a finely polished lip too...

 

[sexy ///m]

nah boet i ran with my 19 inch csl's amd no damage to my michelin pilot sports.the saldanha strip was newly tarred...was abit slippery tho.....that is hog wash what they said..abt the tar vrieting up yr canvas..also most of the ///m manne are fastidious with there cars looks ...nobody had to respray or polish bumpers......only those stuck behind trucks on the way up...lol........unless u do tremendous burnouts like zaki wheelworx it could be detrimental;...but no tyre wear ....

That would be hosted by Motorlease (Rohan), I think.

Looks like I will go to both track days that weekend

 

[patrickdelport]

So who will be going to this event, freerider you joining me?
Surely some of us can meet up there...the unlucky ones whos to broke to go on holiday or the unlucky ones working for an uptight boss

 

[SLOW BMW]

anybody got the results for the day yet?

 

[DT-///M]

Nope not yet but looks like that white M5 took it hands down:thumbsup:

 

[NAATI - WP]

I heard SUSPECT-WP (Gassed Lumina Bakkie) beat it ??? Any1 got info on this ?? ??? ????

 

[Julz]

Yeah it was great seeing the e28 m5 screaming down the strip.the red bakkie was the best crowd pleaser spinning and struggling for traction down the entire strip even in fifth gear

 

[Bmw.wp]

:excited: that bmw m5 e28 are damn fast whew. i am a lil confused between the green lumina bakkie (suspect.wp) and the black Lumina sedan. the black sedan was last here with those suspect.wp plates and when it arrived saturday the green bakkie was wearing the plates. i hear the m5 e28 engines was put in friday and they sorted everything out to drive the saturday morning to saldanha, lol, so they can kick some v8 ass'es
