Roode and Class C's Aldo<br />
Viljoen had a wager down on<br />
whose mk1 golf would be<br />
quickest, with Rudy's twin turbo<br />
mk1 clocking 222km/h taking<br />
second in Class B, and Aldo's<br />
turquoise 20v turbo mk1<br />
taking Class C first with<br />
224km/h. These golfs not only<br />

Fadiel Hoosain's 325i turbo<br />

respectively. Chris America<br />
took his Opel GSI down the<br />
800m to clock a speed of<br />

on a Hayabusa with Achmat<br />
Israel similarly quick on his<br />
nitrous induced zx14 with<br />
271km/h. Achmat reckons he<br />
ran out of nitrous on that run,<br />
(note to self, check the Nos<br />
bottle when going to<br />
Saldanha, LOL). Torique<br />
rounded off with third fastest in<br />
