This fell exactly in line with the short-term goal of the South African Endurance Series, the rights holder to both the South Africa Endurance Championship and South African GT National Championship. “That feat will forever be inscribed in South African motorsport history which makes me very proud,” Letlaka added.“Now that we have achieved this goal, it makes our properties more attractive to sponsors and in turn increases focus on development from our Africa Race Together Foundation.
“Our attention can now turn to my medium-term objective of establishing an All-African Championship which will see us racing in various countries on the continent,” Letlaka added.It caters for vehicles ranging from open-top sport cars like the Ligier JS53, GT3 cars including Porsches, Lamborghinis and Audis, modified and standard saloons, plus the Class E Lexus-powered Backdraft Roadsters which feature as a championship within a championship.
