Today we are taking a break from working on the Renwagen to support members of the team participating in dirt oval karting at Zone 7 MX Track.

*Pitmac Philip Basson 's 6year old son in the Development Class - this young man is the future of the sport 🀩

**Family combination today consisting of the master builder behind the Clio namely Ettienne Du Plessis joining his very fast daughter Hayley in the 390 Modz Class - going to be exciting to see if the older gun still has it to keep up with the young lady 😎

Good luck teams - be fast, be safe and most of all have fun ✌🏻🏁

With K*K KLEIN KAROO KAMPIOENSKAPPE 8 JULY'23 upon us, we felt it fitting to post a photo of Nigel James Thorpe 's first K*K dirt oval track racing event attendance back in 2001 πŸ˜…

Here we have him sitting next to the late Uncle Egon Pedersen track side whom was key to getting Nigel being apart of his first oval track racing team later that year ❀️

Good evening Peeps. Hope all are doing well?
Unfortunately we still have not been able to source photos of the 1st livery of the 1st oval track race team which Nigel was apart of, but we have been given photos of the times leading up to him joining the team and the car's second livery.

Keep an eye open for the history track starting soon πŸ˜‰

Although we loved you dearly, we couldn't make you stay.

As the page's name change has finally been approved by Facebook, this page will now be used to promote the racing team as well as all the sponsors affiliated to the team.

We will be sharing as much as possible content related to the racing team; Content such as work done to the race car, race events we plan on attending, ongoing updates on race day as well as post race reports.

Content sharing of sponsors' business would be things posted by themselves personally or their business pages as well as doing live videos showcasing their businesses.
The aim of this is to brimg awareness of their business and hopefully generate return on their investments to the racing team.

We are looking forward to sharing content and all the adventures that lies ahead.
