A combined South African Rotax Max National season opener and the annual winner-takes-all wildcard African Open delivered epic karting at Cape Town’s Killarney Kart Track over the weekend. With over 125 entries including a strong continental contingent from as far afield as Mozambique and Namibia, the twisty Killarney dished up a whole lot of great racing on a cloudy Cape autumn’s weekend.

Rotax Karting is all set for the all-important opening round of the RMC South African Kart Championships, and wildcard RMC African Open at Killarney in Cape Town on Saturday 23 March. With karters converging on the Cape from all corners of the country and the African continent, plus incredible action in the regional Rotax races so far, it can only be a case of excellent racing over the weekend.
