The 2nd annual Knysna Hillclimb took place last weekend with Geoff Mortimer, piloting a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo9, covering the wet 1.9km course in a blistering 50.637 seconds. The next 4 places were taken up by Skyline GTR’s with the Autohaus Angel V8 Masters car of Fabio Tafani taking 6th. The event saw 1 serious accident with Wessel Pretorius putting his Chev Lumina SS into the wall just before the end of the course.
Sunday greeted us with a torrential downpour resulting in my camera staying in its bag and our crew hit the road early. Thanks to the Raceweb for allowing me to tag along 🙂
