30 – 31 May 2015Â – The Gas Motor Show
Finally, we have an event that shows promise in its ability to replace that other Durban motor show that up and left for the big city lights of Johannesburg – no names mentioned.
Granted those are some big shoes to fill but Gas Motorshow is a motor show with a difference.
Various exhibitors and motor brands will showcase their cars, products and services as part of the event which is set to see over 10,000 people through the gates to experience the only track facility of its kind in Kwa-Zulu Natal.
Some of the things you can expect over this high-octane weekend are Drifting, Suicide Rides, Spin Stunting, Super Cars, Hot Rods, Classics, Precision Driving, Extreme Bike Stunts, Xtreme Kids Zone, Go Karting, Wicked Dips Plastidip and even a Graffiti Exhibition.
Please note that there will be no credit card facilities, so please bring whatever cash you will need – just not enough to buy a hotrod, you may want to EFT those funds.
You will also need sunscreen, cameras, camp chairs, caps/hats and ladies please bring along flat shoes.
If you plan on attending on Sunday, be sure to hit the road with enough time to take into account the road closures for Comrades happening on Sunday.
