Our bigger tracks are in other cities, but I know Durban has a small one called Dube. Locals will help you out.

If you wanna see how idiotic the locals can be, take a drive to quarry road, by the Makro on a Thursday/Friday night around 11pm. Street racers acting like total idiots
Tracks, check Dezzy as suggested. The others are mostly airstrips that are hired periodically to run drags etc. http://www.kznmotorracing.co.za/ This lists events countrywide: http://www.ignitionlive.co.za/events/upcoming/

There's a 'supercar' driving experience at Dezzi Raceway during 14,15, 21,22 of January 2017.
It will cost you approx $200-300 to drive a supercar or two around the track for a few laps: http://www.giftexperiencesouthafrica...car-drive-day/ |

And try to go for a 'spinning' event if you are brave ![]() The local motorsport culture in KZN(Durban) is slightly limited to illegal and legal drag racing (1/4mile racing). There are one or two track / circuit events, which you will have to try to find out when they are. |
