nice pics

Agreed!, great photos and by all accounts great racing.

 

Just looking at the pics it looks to me world away from a funride - which is what it is supposed to be - a showcase of our top local talent.

 

I like the look of the whole 'package', well done and well presented - I hope it attracts more interest.

 

Hats off to the guys sticking their neck out and organising this.

One more thing - this should really be featured on the homepage under News and Features, it deserves its place in the showcase and not merely as a topic

I'll include it in the News & Features shortly.

 

Just a note: I am following this thread so saw the comments, but the best way to get any content featured quickly is to pop an email to features@thehubsa.co.za. Either with a press release or just results and a few photos, or even an existing topic.

thanks for the feedback and the action - much appreciated

 

(got to say I tried very hard, but unsuccessfully, to promote the Freedom Challenge 2013 thread onto the front page, sent numerous mails and requests to mods, now I know where to go!)

I am looking forward to coming Saturday. I have no top end and really hope I can stick in the Cat2 bunch for a couple of laps. How many laps do they manage in the 1hr?

 

I assume the starting times are the same as previous wknds? I will try get a few friends to join. Preferably slower ones so I don't get dropped 1st :ph34r:

This weekend is going to be some Epic racing in CT / Stellenbosch - if you figured the Pro were going to take it as a holiday given the weather condition in CT today well a pic speaks a thousand words - they were found at the Velodrome!
