Dear Time Trial Enthusiasts – welcome to the second round of the Northern Regions Time Trial Championship being held at Zwartkops Raceway.

The Championship is organised as a sub-committee of the BMW Car Club of Gauteng, but will include members from other car clubs as well. All types of cars will be allowed, road and race cars. Road cars will be allowed to have freedom to have certain performance enhancing modifications, more than one would think to be allowed, so that the drivers can really dedicate themselves to spend time and effort to get their cars to a proper track-use spec, and to be rewarded for their effort, with cars that will set quick lap times.

We plan to host at least 3 events this year. All competitors will also be entered into an overall Time-Trial Series points competition. All car-clubs are invited, the more clubs enter, the more exciting the inter-club competition will become. It promises to be fun filled, clean and exciting times on the race-track.

Entry Fee – R1200 – available under the Ticket Section at the end of this notice
