Extreme Festival @ Killarney
About this event
South Africa’s premier motorsport series, the national championship Extreme Festival, is back at Killarney on Saturday 18 March, bringing South Africa’s top drivers together in closely matched cars to battle it out, right here in Cape Town.
There are races for the G&H Transport Extreme Supercars, GTC & SupaCup cars, the CompCare Polo Cup, the Gazoo Racing SA Cup, and, for open-wheel fans, the Investchem Formula 1600’s and Formula Ford Kent single-seaters – as well as the superbikes of the Kawasaki ZX10 masters Cup.
Pre-book your spectator tickets via Computicket or pay at the gate - R100 for adults, R40 for scholars under 16 and free for children under 12; Western Province Motor Club members also get in free on production of their membership book at the gate.
By far the most spectacular vehicles on the Extreme Festival programme are the G&H Transport Extreme Supercars, where exotic machines such as Lamborghinis, Porsches, Aston Martins, Audi R8s and McLarens battle it out against the best from the east, including Nissan GTRs and some highly modified street-cars.
CompCare Polo Cup Racing, you’ll discover, is a contact sport. Most of the drivers are young, ambitions and aggressive, and the cars are all identical. That’s a recipe for (to put it politely) very robust racing.
There’s also a full programme of off-track activities to keep the whole family entertained, including public karting on the Kart Track from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Most of the world’s top drivers began their racing careers in karts; for R200 for 10 laps, you can find out whether you have what it takes!
There’s a wide range of market stalls on the Clubhouse Lawn, as well as entertainment for young and old. Children’s play areas where the youngsters can burn off their excess energy include the famous Kiddies’ Korner, the coolest party zone on the West Coast, which is available for hire year-round; on Race Day your kids get to use it absolutely free!
Bring your beach umbrella or gazebo, bring your picnic basket and your cooler box, light up your skottel braai or park next to one of our brick braais. There are outlets for good food and ice-cold liquid refreshments all around the circuit - the Clubhouse features the Trackside Pub and Grill upstairs at the Clubhouse and the Tuck Shop on the ground floor for traditional take-aways, while the Joubert Pits Lounge features signature specials, the Bull Bar and Wat-a-Burger are there for the old-school spectators on the stands and Halaal food is available from Hoosain’s, just next door to the Joubert Pits.
Meet South Africa’s top drivers at the Fan Walks during the lunch break; the GTC and Supa Cup cars and drivers will be lined up on the Porsche Straight opposite the pits, while the Extreme Supercar and Polo Cup crews will greet spectators on the Tygerberg Straight between Interceptor Corner and Sarel’s Sweep.
Nobody says you have to watch all the races from the same spot; you are welcome to watch the action from different vantage points throughout the day. The pits are also open to spectators so you can see the racing cars and motorcycles up close.
