’<br />
So your car's been modified, lightened,<br />
suspension up-rated, semi-slick tyres fitted,<br />

since the last Saldanha 800m<br />
top-ends and this Easter saw<br />
its return. Hosted by the West<br />
Coast Motor Racing Club,<br />
Saldanha Air field saw streams<br />
of competitors and spectators<br />

stickers) with countless M3s<br />
