Drift – Special Stage – Maputo Mozambique

March 16, 2012 in Other, Reports and Results

Imtiaz Dali

Yet again Roxy le Roux found herself on her way to Maputo Mozambique this past weekend to judge the first official drift event for 2012 – Drift – Special Stage.

Drifters were again granted a few hours of practice on Saturday as a different part of the track was used this time around that included the hairpin corner around the top half of the track. The track layout was very tricky and very tight but made for good drifting and truly tested skill. Roxy later set out the clipping cones and the drifters were able to practice getting as close as possible. Read the rest of this entry →

Special Stage Mozambique

March 8, 2012 in Upcoming Events

For those of you unable to the SupaDrift event in East London, be sure not to miss out on the action that will be going down on Sunday 11 March at the ATCM Autodromo in Maputo.

The action will kick off at 10am and entry will cost 200MT. We know of a few SA competitors that are making their way through and we’ll be there to cover the event and bring you the pictures and story.

With winter fast approaching, this will be one of the last scorcher days at this awesome track with a vibe that is rivaled by none. Make a plan to get through for a day of tyre shredding action.

We’re going to skip on the full write-up and rather just give you some great pictures to look over, courtesy of SSP Productions. http://www.fotolog.com/suidique or http://www.youtube.com/user/sspproductns

The Revolution – Drift Revolution Maputo.

September 13, 2011 in Other, Reports and Results, Upcoming Events

SA Drift went international this past weekend to join yet another drift event taking place in Maputo, Mozambique. Our very own Roxy le Roux went over to judge the event alongside two other local judges selected for the day.

Practice was granted to all drifters for the whole of Saturday to enable them to get comfortable with the track and Roxy later on in the day, set out clipping cones for the drivers to start practicing. This time around was a little more challenging for the drivers as the track layout was the same as the last event except it was reversed. Not long after the track was driven a few times and the placing of the cones familiarized were the drivers putting full throttle into the corners.

Sunday was competition day. It was thought that that the event would have had more entries but unfortunately due to the African Games also taking in place in Maputo, many of the roads were closed and resulted in drivers not be able to reach the track. They did manage to get 13 entries and would merely only run a Top 8 ladder after qualifying.
