Inland Extreme Festival preparing for final Red Star visit

The Red Star Raceway near Delmas will host Inland motorsport this Saturday, with six separate racing disciplines in action.

Top billing for the day will belong to the Pabar VW Challenge brigade, with the overall series championship balanced on a knife edge.

Class A leader Rory Atkinson (BHIT Polo) will be the man to beat, fighting for overall victories with drivers like Stiaan Kriel (Design Hut Polo), Wayne Masters (Performance Masters Polo), Derick Smalberger (Sabertek Polo) and Chris Dale (Blue Belt Polo).
