highway collective at zwartkops raceway

after the highway collective's first victory the other night at the drags at tarlton, it was decided that it was time to tear up the tarmac at the trackday at zwartkops. goin in a straightline proved to be of little difficulty for the the collectives fastest drag racer, stu, but what would happen when brad was faced with a slightly more winding course?

i hooked up with brad (hellchops), jon (the collective), and nic (neuk) just before 9am at the petrol station just up the road from my place. heading to zwartkops we spotted that fine piece of volkswagen enginering that you may have seen in todays "daily dub".

once at the track brad and nic got instructions about how and how not to drive during the drivers briefing. after the first set of cars went out onto the track, it was the highway collectives chance to show every1 what they were made of. jon hopped into the passenger seat of brad's caddy, and nic buckled himself into his "truck".
it was rad to watch all the daily drivers being thrown around the track. there were also some realy awesome track weapons on hand, such as this evo.

nice mk2 spitze edition golf

the collective found the this awesome audi 100 entering the track a sight for sore eyes...

after the collectives first session, it was time to grab something to eat. "the king" watched over us while we ate...

some track action...

another cool old car that the collective was cheering for each lap was this old merc. it was super slow, super old, and was smoking like a chimney, but we had to give respect to this old girl.

more track action...

there was also a class for proper race cars. there were a couple of dubs in this group, including 2 polo cup cars, and an insanely fast stripped out mk5 GTI. was cool watching them blast around the track!
