THE WESTERN PROVINCE MOTOR CLUB WELCOMES THE ANNOUNCEMENT BY MOTORSPORT SOUTH AFRICA OF THE RE-OPENING OF MOTORSPORT VENUES IN SOUTH AFRICA.

MSA-SANCTIONED MOTORSPORT EVENTS ARE PERMITTED TO RESUME, SUBJECT TO SEVERE RESTRICTIONS AND REQUIREMENTS, THE MOST SEVERE BEING A STRICT LIMIT ON THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE PERMITTED ACCESS ON THE DAY.

UNFORTUNATELY SPECTATORS ARE NOT ALLOWED AND BOMAS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OPEN. THE CLUB IS, HOWEVER, INVESTIGATING THE LIVE STREAMING OF THE POWER SERIES EVENTS SO THAT YOU DON’T MISS ANY OF THE ON-TRACK ACTION.

NO MORE THAN THREE CREW MEMBERS PER ENTRY WILL BE PERMITTED; A REGISTER WILL BE COMPILED BEFORE THE EVENT AND ONLY THOSE ON THE REGISTER WILL BE PERMITTED ACCESS AFTER CHECKS HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT.

THESE INCLUDE THE COMPULSORY WEARING OF FACE MASKS AT ALL TIMES, STRICT SANITISING PROTOCOLS AND TEMPERATURE SCREENING OF ALL COMPETITORS AND CREW ATTENDING.

BEARING IN MIND THAT THE PANDEMIC IS BY NO MEANS OVER AND THE RISK OF INFECTION REMAINS HIGH, WE MUST BE SEEN TO BE ABSOLUTELY 100 PERCENT COVID-19 COMPLIANT AND TO PREVENT ANY CHANCE OF EVENTS NOT BEING PERMITTED AT THE CIRCUIT.

TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS, THE POWER SERIES PRESENTED BY WINGFIELD MOTORS WILL BE SPLIT INTO TWO EVENT DAYS PER ROUND, WITH SOME CATEGORIES RACING AT THE FIRST EVENT AND THE REMAINDER AT THE NEXT EVENT.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON THE RESTRICTIONS, PLEASE SEE MSA GENERAL CIRCULAR 4 (http://wpmc.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/MSA-General-Circular-4-of-2020.pdf)

MEANWHILE, ALL TESTING AT KILLARNEY IS PERMITTED IN TERMS OF THE EMERGENCY AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY REGULATIONS AND WILL CONTINUE AS SUCH UNTIL LOCKDOWN REGULATIONS AND LEVELS ARE AMENDED. THE KILLARNEY MAIN CIRCUIT IS AVAILABLE TO HIRE FOR TESTING ON WEDNESDAYS, THURSDAYS AND FRIDAYS.  CONTACT RHONETTE ROSSOUW AT RHONETTE@WPMC.CO.ZA FOR MORE INFORMATION AND TO BOOK YOUR SLOT.

ON A LESS FORMAL NOTE, WE ARE AS EXCITED AS RACING ENTHUSIASTS EVERYWHERE TO WELCOME THE RETURN OF MOTORSPORT IN SOUTH AFRICA AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO WELCOMING COMPETITORS BACK TO KILLARNEY.
