South Africans, whether they are race fans or not, are set for a blockbuster treat when the SABAT World Rallycross of South Africa goes down to the wire at the Killarney International Raceway in Cape Town 9-10 November.
Most significantly, this year’s world title will be decided at the South African finale and to celebrate, new organisers World Sport are preparing a bigger and better weekend than ever to ensure that Cape Town's World RX extravaganza goes off with a bang enough to drown out the previous week’s Guy Fawkes celebrations.
A sensational live show, World Rallycross delivers dramatic ground-shaking rapid-fire action second to none throughout a splendid series of Saturday heats, through Sunday’s Semis and into the explosive action of the championship-deciding final World Rallycross Finale — a seismic thrill to the race fan and the man in the street alike.
Racing 400kW supercars capable of accelerating to 100km/h in under two seconds on the mixed dirt and asphalt Cape Town amphitheatre RX track, the World Rallycross gladiators arrive in the the Cape hot off a year of gruelling all-wheel drive warfare that has raged across the globe, from the Emirates, through the Americas and across Europe en route to it all coming to a head right here in South Africa.
Among the drivers to line up five or six at a time against the backdrop of Table Mountain, expect Swedish Hansen brothers, Kevin and Timmy to take on the likes of Brits Liam Doran and Oliver Bennett, all-rounders Timo Scheider and Guerlain Chicherit and Krisztian Szabo to deliver mind-blowing action throughout. They will be backed by the second division RX2 International Series presented by Cooper Tires mob, including Oliver Eriksson, Damien Meunier and Cyril Raymond.
Fans can expect a stunning supporting bill too, along with a broad selection of trackside activities throughout the weekend, with special day and weekend deals as well as fly-in packages for out of town visitors.
