Photos by Alex Elijah


A full day of competitive side-by-side drag racing was guaranteed. ThrowDown was majorly successful as many drivers ran personal best times, and some of the racing was neck and neck! 


From your aspirated V8’s, to your turbocharged rotary motors – much power (and rubber) was laid as these drivers gave it their all to win their class trophies.


Nissan Champ Bakkies stole the show in our race finale, keeping all spectators on the edge of their seats as that was definitely the much-anticipated race of the day!

And now he is the Motul Ambassador.
