RIDER INFORMATION

This document contains all the information that you will need for Round 6 of the GXCC, which will be held in Carletonville on 4 December 2021.

1.            CLUB MEMBERSHIP

Each and every competitor, including WOW riders, MUST belong to a Motorsport South Africa affiliated club, except competitors who take out a one event club, regional or national license. GXCC is a MSA affiliated club and club memberships can be taken out or renewed online as per the processes below.

We are not affiliated to WOMZA and therefore WOMZA clubs and licenses are not recognized for the purposes of our events.

Competitors who will be entering the Golden Oldies or WOW classes can take out a one-day club membership.

2.            MSA LICENSE

In order to compete in any GXCC event you will need a license from Motorsport South Africa.

Please download the event’s supplementary regulations from the link below to see the various classes available, as well as the licenses required for the respective classes:

Golden Oldies & WOW competitors must take out a One Event WOW License. Please note, that the WOW license does not offer a competitor any personal injury cover. Should you not have your own medical aid, we suggest that you rather take out a One Event Club License.
