After a short break giving the marshals and commentators a well deserved breather and allowing the MSA competitors the opportunity to make their way safely out of the pits area we saw a steady stream of competitors making their way in for the night time Street 2 Strip session. With the enties limited to 250 we saw the queue starting way past Cape Town Corner and just over an hour wait between runs giving plenty of time for the drivers to size up their competition. My (somewhat biased) highlight had to be the Raceweb RX-7 managing a 13.1s pass 1st time out with a Killarney novice at the wheel, nice one… now onto the pics…

An awesome day of racing on Boxing Day with nearly 50 competitors taking part in the MSA portion of the day. With 3 cars running in the 10’s top honuors went to Michael Kayser running a 10.401s quarter mile in his Nissan Champ. Unfortunately Hermann Mostert (Rover-Tec) could only manage one pass, an impressive 10.604s pass, before having to pull out with engine trouble – he would definitely have been a contender for top honors if he hadn’t had to pull out. Another impressive appearance was from R-Tech’s space frame fiberglass bodied Caddy which managed a best time of 11.302s. Top honors for the bikes went to Sharief Reynolds running a 9.099 quarter mile time, awesome stuff. Part 1…

Firstly, a big thank you to my wife for being cool enough to let me take in the action at Killarney on our wedding anniversary… love you babe. Coincidently it’s the 20th anniversary to the day that Willie Nel started racing at Killarney and although the day was dedicated to Oom Willie the day undoubtedly belonged to the relative new kid on the block, Brendan Moore. Brendan secured his second succesive overall championship, congrats to Brendan, Brian, Lea and the team of Flat Four Racing on their well deserved victory

I got up Saturday morning and had a look out the window only to be greeted with pouring rain in the Southern Suburbs and the prospect of the racing being called-off. An SMS and Facebook message later the word got around that the sky’s over Killarney where clear and we were on for a day’s racing. Unfortunately it turned out to be a not so busy day at Killarney during the MSA portion of the event but fun was had and at least one person went home happy, can you guess who…

Things picked up during the Street2Strip portion of the event with the queue of competitors extending half way around Cape Town corner but I must apologies for the absence of Street2Strip coverage, along with the increased crowd attendance and the increase in competitors was also the increase in friends to talk #$%@&#% with 😳

Congrats Ghatiem on you sub 13s pass 😉
