The MRSSA is billed as an affordable series that is run by the riders, for the riders with no politics allowed and comprises of eight rounds that are held predominantly in the Gauteng area at Kyalami in Midrand, Red Star Raceway in Delmas, Zwartkops Raceway in Centurion and an away race at Scribante. The classes that compete in the series are made up of Classics, Super 600 & 1000cc Superbikes, Sub-500cc, Botts & V4’s, Masters, and Open Superbikes for novice & premier riders as well as unlimited superbikes. Tickets to the event will be available at the gate at a cost of R50 per person with free entry to children under the age of 12. Qualifying for all classes takes place from 08h00 – 09h00 and the first race of the day starts at 09h15 with all classes competing in four races each. The weather gods seem to have played along this year with warm and clear conditions forecast, unlike last year when the event had to be cut short due to torrential rain and high speed winds that caused havoc with the riders.
