How it Works:
- Crews are hand Selected and must be approved by the Grand Prix Race Master (If you are up for the challenge then contact Jonty @ 0828559435) - Note - Due to the nature of this corridor flying you will need to have flown the track under supervision and be approved by the current Grand Prix Racers - Current Approved GP Racers (Approved 2021) are:
Dane Laing
Leon Joubert
Sandi Goddard
Eugene v Staden
Manaf Mubrak
John Sayers
Jack Coetzer
Johan v Eeden
Cor Esterhuizen
Simon Abbott
Rhett Shillaw
Jonty Esser (Race Master)
- The track/corridor is designed to keep the aircraft in the view of the airfield - tight turns at max 3g
- The track/corridor can only accommodate 7 GP Racers at one time - in the event that there are more than 7 a knock out heat race will determine the final heat/race of the GP Racers
- The GP race is fast paced and all aircraft must fly the track/corridor at a minimum speed of 135 knots average
- The tracks are in a figure of 8 therefore the Runway direction may not be flown above 300'AGL and the Cross over not Lower than 500'AGL
- The GP Racers must at all time conform to the current published ANRs'
- The Idea is to optimize your flight to stay in the track/corridor
- The Handicap speed will be determined with a flight/video (Cockpit View) of the track doing 6 laps at maximum speed and the best time is used for the handicap.
- The GP Racers Take off time will be published as soon at the Handicap has been calculated.
- Single seat aircraft are allowed - in the event of a side by side 2 seater the aircraft should be flown with a Navigator.
- After the Heat the tracks are downloaded and check for penalties and the price giving is 30min after the Final heat.
