Smokey affair expected

There will be a brand-new start to the drifting season at the Rock Raceway tomorrow (February 4) when the first round of the 2017 South African Drift Championship season gets going.

The Brakpan venue is expected to be an exceptionally smokey affair, with all the crowd favourite drifters getting up to their usual sideways antics.

The judges’ circuit layout will test the skill levels of all the competitors, who will all be chasing the victory.

Fans will also be treated to a special “smokedown showdown” starring Peter Steyn (in his Nissan 1400 Champ), affectionately known as “Heel Tyd Speel Tyd”, as he takes on Braam Wessels in his Opel Monza.

Gates will open at 10am with practice sessions for drifters.

Qualifying and event proceedings will commence at 4pm.

Fans are encouraged to bring along banners to show their support for their favourite competitors.
