Upcoming VW Club Events

[Arbee]

Hi Guys,

Thought i would create a thread for this as The VW Club has an event every month. Would be good to attend at this is a club that strives to keep its members happy and satisfied with endurance events.

Coming up, tomorrow (apologies for not posting earlier)
Enduro Karting and Gymkarting - 28 July 2013

Enduro Karting and Gymkarting

So you think you can drive?

One of the most challenging events of the year is back on the 28th of July at the Zwartkops Kart Track. A day of 4 wheel fun where your skill can truly be tested on the edge. We will be running an enduro karting session where you can pit your skills against 9 other karts on the track. True wheel to wheel racing. The rest of the day is open to the cars. The Kart circuit is very tight, and almost a gymkhana for a road-car! It's a race against the clock to get around the track ahead of your class mates, and in keeping it out of the barriers.

Venue : Zwartkops Kart Track

Enduro Karting -
Time : 8H00 - 11H00
Date: 2013/07/28
Costs : R1800/Kart, divided by the number of drivers in a team (so 4 drivers equals R450 per person, etc).

Gymkarting -
Time : 12H00 - 16H00
Date: 2013/07/28
Costs : R150 members, R200 non members per car

Enduro Karting and Gymkarting entered separately. You can compete in either or both.

N.B. Helmets, long pants and sleeves are compulsory for safety reasons!

The Karting will be split up into 10 teams! You can have up to 5 members per team, the more members you have, the less each one pays, but you get less track time. We will also allocate teams on the day, so if your mates bail on you, we can still offer you a ride.

Classes are the normal classes for the cars. A, B, C, FA, FB, FC, TDI and M. With the 3,2,1 points scoring for 1st, 2nd, 3rd respectivly. And obviously the 1 point for participation.

This is one you don't want to miss

Yup, i registered and paid to take my BMW around the track. You can bring any car you want. As long as its roadworthy etc...

Yes, you can take a passenger. IIRC, there might be a charge of R50 if anything at all. Make sure you have helmet, long sleeve, long pants and closed shoes for driver and passenger.

 

[Johnny8Bit]

Event is not limited to VW.
Passengers are allowed.
Not sure if there is a cost for passengers, if so it would be minimal.
Not an MSA event.

I'm registered and paid. Looking forward to some fun.

Morne, they update the list once a week, i will let you know once your name is there. They dont generally reply to emails. LOL.

Lets see if we can get a few more from BMW Fanatics to warrant our own section in the Pits. Dont think they will allow the banners being put up but i will try.

Guys, if you have not been on Kyalami before, this is an ideal opportunity. Kyalami is an awesome track and everybody has to experience it at least once in their life time. :thumbs:
