Killarney Raceway played hosts to a round of the Gauteng Regional Extreme Festival on Saturday August 10.

The Joburg boys brought down their A-game as Cape motorsport enthusiasts had the opportunity to witness categories of racing rarely seen at Killarney.

The list of events included the iconic Mobil1 V8 Supercars, the BMW M Performance Parts Race Series and the Ferro Energia 111/GT Sports and Saloons, a production-based series aimed at showcasing modern cars and recognisable brands.
