Dusty, spectacular cross-country racing

PARYS. - The South African National Cross Country Series (SACCS) ended on a high note with the Toyota Gazoo Racing SA Vaal 400 held in Parys on Saturday, 24 October.

While championship titles were clinched, there were disappointments for others after two demanding days of racing. The Toyota Gazoo Racing SA Vaal 400, the fifth and final round of a shortened season, consisted of a 14km Pirelli Qualifying Race early in the morning to determine the starting order for the main race. Teams had to complete a 168km loop twice.
Hot, dusty and windy conditions added to the nerve-wracking atmosphere. In the end, it was the newly crowned Production Vehicle Champions, Henk Lategan/Brett Cummings (Toyota Gazoo Racing Hilux) who claimed their fourth overall victory of the season and also walked away as the FIA Class winners. They finished in a total time of 3:17:57.
