KNYSNA NEWS - Classic car enthusiasts, automotive and motor sport fans are in for a treat when this year's Simola Hillclimb action kicks off on 3 September.
According to a Knysna Speed Festival press release issued last week, the Classic Car Friday line-up will feature a stunning array of legendary road and race cars spanning more than six decades.
A total of 30 manufacturers will be represented on the 74-strong entry list - the largest yet for Classic Car Friday.
"There simply isn't any other event on the local calendar that assembles such a fascinating and diverse range of cars that are not just put on display, but are driven with enthusiasm up the short but challenging 1,9km Simola Hill," says Simola Hillclimb sporting director, Geoff Goddard.
The driver line-up is equally impressive, with many of South Africa's top racing drivers of past and present relishing the opportunity to be part of the Simola Hillclimb.
The 2021 Simola Hillclimb takes place from 3 to 5 September, starting with Classic Car Friday, followed by King of the Hill on the Saturday and Sunday. Due to Covid-19 regulations, no spectators are allowed, but the entire event will be live-streamed.
