Entries open for Hillclimb competitors

KNYSNA NEWS - The time has come for passionate automotive enthusiasts to submit their entry applications for South Africa's premier motoring and motorsport lifestyle event – the Simola Hillclimb.

The 13th edition of the Simola Hillclimb takes place from 4 to 7 May 2023.

The event has grown in stature and support across South Africa and internationally, and is held in high regard among competitors and spectators alike.

Its success has been built on a formula of delivering an unrivalled line-up of iconic cars and legendary drivers that take on the challenging 1,9km Simola Hill course each year.

Raising the bar

"Our goal for the Simola Hillclimb each year is to keep the entry list for both Classic Car Friday and King of the Hill fresh and entertaining. This has certainly raised the bar for competitors hoping for selection, and guarantees an adrenaline-fuelled spectacle of the highest order for the fans," says sporting director Geoff Goddard.

"Every year we see the calibre of entries being raised even higher, with a significant number of cars being prepared or built just to compete at the Simola Hillclimb," Goddard says.

"We are consistently oversubscribed for Classic Car Friday and King of the Hill, and entry applications are considered according to specific criteria to ensure that we deliver the very best experience for competitors and spectators alike."
