The winners of Dealerfloor’s latest competition was announced recently. The prize was a copy of “Kyalami The Book”.
Kyalami, the book is the result of exhaustive research by the writer, André Loubser, and a must for anyone interested in the spectacular history of the original Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit. The 400+ page book is filled with more than 1 180 photos and a host of stories from the most epic Grand Prix, 9 hour endurance and other racing battles on this iconic track.
With a foreword by F1 world champion Jody Scheckter, the book also contains a special 80-minute DVD with rare footage from bygone races, including hot laps with Alain Prost in an F1 Renault during the practice laps for the 1983 South African Grand Prix.
Dealerfloor had three copies up for grabs and the winners of this collector’s book are Albi Citton (photo), Alex Munroe and Ahmed Olgar. Congratulations!
