Jurgens Smit Posted January 19, 2017 Share If I understood it right, the general vibe management of the track has is something along the lines of having to rent the track for a day to use it. It's a pity, I really enjoyed the short lap we did on the 94.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letum911 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Just spoke to the Office at the Racetrack, a lady by the name of Megan assisted me over the phone. Short answer is no cyclists allowed anymore. The track is not managed as a "track" anymore but rather as a venue. Therefore if you would like to use the track, you book it out as you would any other venue. PS. I didn't ask the cost related thereto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letum911 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Probably Porsche kinda money. Will most likely be able to buy a Porsche for that money!!! It's such a pity, would be awesome to train there!! But hopefully when the economy kicks in they will start widening their income sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hennie VR Posted January 19, 2017 Share We will need to get the Porsche directors and management into cycling. When they have done a few laps on their bikes they will want to start sharing that feeling with other cyclist and open the track to us again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeffer Posted June 20, 2017 Share Before 07:00 and after 18:00.... surely the track is not used then, just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letum911 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Before 07:00 and after 18:00.... surely the track is not used then, just saying This was exactly my thinking. Charge R10 per rider, or something that is reasonable, and make some money from the track in the off-peak hours. And in the odd case that the track will be in use during those times just put up a sign 2 or 3 days in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be so damn awesome training there!! Hopefully the owners/managers see the light and will change their minds. Do you have any idea how one can get hold of someone in a decision making position to pitch the idea/possibilities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
