Pro Tour


With the first national Pro Tour meeting of the year in these parts at Killarney on Saturday April 27, due to be followed by a lunch and discussion with Gary Anderson, one of the world’s top Formula 1 authorities, at the clubhouse on Sunday, local enthusiasts can look forward to an exciting and informative weekend.
 
Highlights of the recent Pro Tour meeting at Zwartkops included an exciting race long battle in the GT Challenge and Classic Car category between Deon du Plessis in his KTM Crossbow and a Porsche GT3 Cup car in the hands of Nicky Dicks. They were followed across the line by Jonathan Schenkman (Ferrari 430) and the Cape’s Craig Jarvis (Porsche GT3 Cup).
 
The Sunday function is a rare event that is being promoted by the Western Province Motor Club in conjunction with the national Motorsport Legends Association.
 
Anderson’s more than 40 years of motorsport experience includes the positions of chief mechanic with the Brabham and McLaren F1 teams. He then rose to designer status with the Jordan outfit where he designed the car that got Michael Schumacher started on a road to fame that was to include many Formula 1 world titles.
 
Formula 1 apart, he spent periods in the United States where he was involved in Indycar racing, while he also became involved with Adrian Reynard in Formula 3000 where their car achieved immediate success when it won the 1988 International Formula 3000 title.
 
Currently semi-retired, he has become the technical voice of F1 that we hear on the SuperSport Formula 1 TV coverage and will be coming to Cape Town direct from the Bahrain Grand Prix.
 
A limited number of tickets for the Sunday lunch (a two course meal with wine), and natter with Gary, are available for R290, or R1650 for a table for six.
