drivers.

Those feeling adventurou­s can purchase a hot lap around Kyalami with a profession­al driver at R200. You must be over the age of 12 and preferably bring your own crash helmet.

Ladies may prefer going on hot laps with lady racer Monica Van Der Westhuizen.

That experience will, at R200, include a set of Pink Valve Caps and some branded clothing.

All funds raised will go to Pink- Drive, a Bridgeston­e initiative geared towards breast cancer awareness and treatment.

The Gaming Network will also be on board, offering runs on their racing simulator, with the fastest on the day receiving R500.

The event will kick off at 7.30am and admission to Kyalami will be free of charge.
