ULTIMATE SBK
The main class on the day featuring the
fastest riders on the fastest machines in the
land. The Ultimate Superbike class is pretty
much your National SBK category from days
gone by, but without the National status.
2021 saw the introduction of the new
Ultimate SBK class with a 3 round sprint
championship setup to see who the Ultimate
SBK rider and machine would be here in SA.
The honours went to Clint Seller on his King
Price Extreme Honda machine and he came
into 2022 with the number 1 plate and a big
target on his back as the man to beat.
Both races lived up to expectation with world
class battles raging throughout. Clint Seller
did take overall honours with both race
wins but behind him the battle for the final
podium spots was epic. AJ Venter, Michael
White, Riccardo Otto and Damion Purificati
put on a great show swapping positions at
almost every corner. Sadly, new BMW rider,
18-year old Ricardo Otto, crashed out of
the battle for the podium in race 1. That left
Venter, White and Purificati to battle it out...
and battle they did!
Seller proved why he is still the man to
beat on his Honda CBR1000RR-R SP while
AJ Venter proved both his and his Suzuki’s
worth by taking second overall for the day
ahead of Michael White on his Aprilia RSV4
1100 Factory.
A great mix of man and machine, with a
very fast lady thrown in the mix. Nicole
van Aswegen, the fastest Mom in the
world, ended up in 4th overall first time
out on her new World of Carbon/BMW
Motorrad S1000RR, setting her fastest time
ever around the RSR track with a 1,55.9.
Sensational!!!
In the 600 Supersport class it was another
King Price Extreme Honda rider taking the
spoils with Leungo Gaorekwe picking up
both wins ahead of Clinton Fourie in 2nd and
Keegan Mills in 3rd. Unfortunately, Ryno
Pretorius crashed out of race one while
mixing it with the big superbikes.
