Postponement of our Passion for Speed International
Our January event would have been the 20th annual David Piper/ Passion for Speed Festival. Unfortunately, the present state of the COVID-19 Pandemic has reached almost critical proportions.
Zwartkops to date is virus free. However, the spread and intensity of infections is such that we are not confident of protecting competitors and teams from the protocols required. There are also a large number of competitors who are apprehensive in entering the event.
To be fair to it all and meet the objective of the event, social interactions, a celebration, and competitive motoring we took the difficult decision to postpone the event to the 18/ 19/ 20 June 2021. We are hopeful that many of the current issues would have abated by then we may even have some Internationals. Those who were coming to drive our cars have been advised of the change of date. Please refer to the adjusted calendar for 2021.
We just have to accept and adjust to the circumstances in South Africa.
Our Racing Dates for 2021 are as follows:
