What a crazy start to the weekend?! On Friday, 27 April 2012, J.S. Klopper Primary in association with SSJ Concepts hosted one awesome event, “The Ultimate Ridez” car show out in Elsies River. The venue was packed with some awesome rides and peeps. There were some Car Club displays but it was the show cars that attracted the masses. Also paying R100 for unlimited dB runs surely created some headaches in the Autopunks camp. There was also some great Live Entertainment and super DJ’s wrecking the decks. ProTouch Ottery, Arrow …

Enjoying the last days of summer we were spoiled with some nice eye candy. I think Gasant of the BM Squad can back me up on this one.

Never in my life have I seen so many cars queuing at a car wash and some of the rides didn’t even …

All of this went down at Groote Schuur High School in Newlands on Saturday. They were blessed with some nice summer weather and the turnout speaks for itself.
