The Pheiffer family of CapeTown must<br />

be one of the fastest around. Not<br />

content with having former racing<br />

driver Henry Pheiffer in the family, his<br />

son, Adrian Pheiffer, former Western<br />

Province RacingChampion, has got his<br />

three sons into the act too.<br />

The bays, Dale, Roy and Earl, are the<br />

only three brothers to simultaneously<br />

participate as a team in a single sport<br />

in South Africa. They have don exceptionally<br />

well in almost every motocross<br />

race they have entered. BP Southern<br />

Africa, in conjunction with Yamaha<br />

will sponsor them as part of the BPI<br />

Yamahateam for 1978.<br />

Although Dale, 10. is prepared to take<br />

tips from his older brothers, he is no<br />

novice when it comes to motocross<br />

racing. He won ten races on his 80cc<br />

Yamaha in 1977 even though he has<br />

beenracing for only two years.<br />

Dale occasionally demonstrates his<br />

riding skill at minicross - motocross<br />

for under-twelves - at Goodwood,<br />

Cape.Although not as experienced as<br />

his brothers, his performance in the<br />

past two years makes him a strong<br />

contender for the South African<br />

Championships.<br />

Roy, 15 and Earl, 17. have been riding<br />

for six years. Roy, the 1977 Western<br />

Province 100cc Junior Champion, won<br />

every race he finished last year.'He will<br />

be riding a 125cc Yamaha this year to<br />

qualify him for the senior races.<br />

The brothers are determined to make<br />

it to the top. It was only a broken wrist<br />

that put Earl out of motocross action<br />

for eight months last year. He too, will<br />

be riding a 125ccin 1978.<br />
