The fifth round of the INEX Legends Championship saw this popular series make their way to the Midvaal Raceway in the Vaal Triangle on Saturday 25 June for yet another action packed event. An added bonus to this particular event was the fact that the races would be run in an anti-clockwise direction.

 

The traditional ball draw for grid positions saw Lonika Maartens (SP) draw pole position with Johan Jooste (M) pulling second. Steve Nel (M) would line up in third position with Anro Stadler (SP) joining the veteran on the second row. Johan van de Venter (M) and Justin Robertson (M) would round out the top six starting positions.
