The race was billed as history making on Saturday, February 4, 2022, when an all black team competed at Kyalami Race track in Midrand.

And indeed legendary driver Tschops Sipuka and his partners Xolile Letlaka and Philip Kekana made history as the first black team to compete in the Kyalami 9-Hour race and South African GT championship race. By taking a good account of themselves on the race course, not only di the team demonstrated their skills in the art of motor racing, but in the process may have inspired many a would-be black motor racing driver among the youth.

 With their Lamborghini Huracan Eco GT3, Tschops and his team made a name for themselves in the white-dominated racing world. The team performed admirably and made everyone who supported them proud, inspiring hope in all young black kids to believe in the power of their dreams.

This is a moment of celebration not just for Tschops and his partners, but also for South Africa as a whole. This demonstrates that everyone can achieve anything they set their minds to.
