The sixth round of the Algoa Motorsport Club Regional and Club championship takes place at Aldo Scribante Raceway tomorrow with an impressive field of 27 modified saloons set to do battle on the 2.48 kilometre circuit that is renowned for its close racing due to its technical nature. There are a few drivers returning to action as well as some new drivers joining in on the action that the modified saloon class provides. Aubrey du Plessis returns in his rebuilt VW Jumbo Golf following a massive accident a few months back where he had a massive sideways impact into a tyre wall. Kelsey Davidson will be relishing getting back behind the wheel of the VW SupaCup Polo where she has really impressed with her speed that has seen her been promoted to class C. Joining the fray for the first time are John Smith in a VW Citi Golf Mk1 and Patrick Walton also in a Mk1 VW Golf.

The battle upfront will no doubt be between the class A Opel Tigra of Tiaan Coetzer (pictured) and the VW Polo of Deon Slabbert who will be hard pushed by the class B VW SupaPolo’s of Ian Riddle and Elan Buchman and Ian Oberholzer in his Volvo 850 Estate. A highlight of the modified saloon racing is the hard battles that are carried out through classes C,D,E & F with many championship permeations falling into place as the season heads to its climax where a mere 20 points separate the top 10 competitors.

In the Wide Horizon Advanced Training sponsored series for Historic, Classic and Retro cars Angelique Griffin returns in her giant killing Alfa Romeo Sud Sprint after having had an engine rebuild and Nick Davidson is back in his very neat Ford Escort following an extensive overhaul. In the Retro Classic cars Western Cape driver Andrew Honeywill makes a welcome return to Scribante with his turbocharged Porsche 944 and will be relishing the close racing along with Syd Lippstreu in his Toyota Celica, Alwyn Kretzmann in his Lotus 7 and young Sarah Benn in her BMW E36.

On two wheels Nkululeko Majola and Zander Taljaard in the unlimited class will have their work cut-out keeping the 600cc bikes of Dylan Grobler and Ruan Taljaard at bay while the Powersport class will see an interesting tussle between Ronnie Doyle, Rob Halgreen and Richard Hawkins, Craig Benn will be hoping to extend his championship led in the CBR 150 class up against Emma Diener and Kirsty Oberholzer.     

Tickets are available at the gate with qualifying for the various classes starting at 8h00 with the first race scheduled for 10h00.
