The fourth round of the hugely popular DO4SA regional dirt oval championship that alternates between Victory Raceway and PE Ovaltrack Raceway (PEOTR) takes place at PEOTR that is situated along Mission Road in the Greenbushes area. The classes that will be competing are Junior Hot Rods, 1600 Saloons, 1660 Modified Saloons, 2.1 Modified Saloons, Hot Rods, Heavy Metals and the popular V8 American Saloons.

Currently at the halfway stage of the six round series, things are starting to look interesting as the championship moves into its second half this weekend. Daniel Renison has a healthy lead over Keegan Ellard in the 1600 Saloon class with young Reghardt Joubert just behind in third. The current SA Champion Marthinus Muller is the front runner of the 1660 Modified Saloon class with Percy Noah twenty-two points adrift and Jason Drake just behind Noah in third place. The closest of the battles for overall honours is in the 2.1 Modified class where Branden McPherson and Rimon Landman are tied on points with Damon Miles just two points behind them. Tiaan Oliphant has dominated the Hot Rod class and holds a massive lead over Nandor Kleyweght who is second with Carel van Huyssteen in third and in the American Saloon class for V8’s it’s the consistent Rohan van Vuuren who enjoys a relatively comfortable lead over Juan Roesstorff who is second and Ruzanne Jansen who is third. In the seventeen car strong Heavy Metal class, Jean-Pierre Coetzee is the clear favourite in his beautifully turned out BMW, and he has opened up a healthy lead over the VW V6 Golf of Neville Ellard with Dane van Tonder just behind in third place.  

The racing action gets underway at 5pm and there is ample free trackside parking available and tickets are available at the gate at R70 per person, R40 for pensioners and R30 for children under 12 years of age. This event is the last opportunity for the drivers to hone their skills before heading to next weekend’s Klein Karoo Kampioenskappe that takes place in Oudtshoorn on Saturday 29^th June.
