QASA was once again named a beneficiary by The Cape 1000. Owner of Super Car Lifestyle and organiser of The Cape 1000, Ross Crichton has been a long-standing benefactor of the organisation.
“Super Car Lifestyle has been organising car events and tours for over 20 years,” shares Vanessa Crichton, the event organiser. “We felt the time was right for an internationally recognised rally in the Western Cape and, having supported QASA since our first event in 2003, it was only fitting.” QASA shares this tremendous honour with The Motorsport Legends Benevolent Funds.
The Cape 1000 hosted its fourth edition from March 16 to 21. Classic, modern and supercars travelled through the most breathtaking and thrilling drives in the Western Cape from Stellenbosch to Hermanus and Tulbagh. Vanessa shares: “The passes are always the best. Notably, this year is the Clarence Drive and Bain’s Kloof Pass.”
The aim is to run the event for many more years. As Vanessa notes: “The big achievement will be reaching our 10-year anniversary. The challenge is setting new routes each year to try keep it interesting for returning participants and, at the same time, give new participants the best roads to drive.”
We wish The Cape 1000 all the best with its future races and hope to continue our partnership for many more years. Their support make it possible to continue empowering our members to live their lives to their full potential. The team at The Cape 1000 encourages QASA members to reach for positivity.
“Always stay strong no matter the challenge. With the right positivity anything is possible,” Vanessa concludes.
