proudly hosted by the metro and supported by Carnival City and Ignition TV.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s show theme is perfectly reflected in its rip-roaring event line-up, fine-tuned by organisers Thebe Reed Exhibitions, to feature a host of new, auto inspired activities, as well as the regular crowd-pleasing exploits that keep the devotees of petrol and pistons coming back year after year.<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>The 2015 Gauteng Motor Fest programme will feature two new track items: Honda NSF100 Racing, as well as GoKart Demos.<\/p>\n<p>The Honda NSF100 Racing, an initiative by Honda Motors Southern Africa, in partnership with the SA Motorcycle Racing Academy, aims to introduce the youth of South Africa to the \u201cjoy\u201d of motorcycle circuit racing, creating future champions at entry and grass roots levels, and encouraging young racers to race purpose-built bikes designed specifically for kids.<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>With the love for motor sport often starting from a young age, show organisers have ensured that children and families are well taken care of, offering a feast of family entertainment in the form of the Puzy Quad track, a Quatro Event bungee trampoline, a number of cool car club displays and remote control car racing, or discover the magic of a helicopter flight in a Bell Jet Ranger.<\/p>\n<p>More roaring engines, tyre smoke and side-by-side action can be experienced with the return of the popular SupaDrift Series, showcasing the fastest growing motor sport to date.<\/p>\n<p>SupaDrift is a sideways extreme competition where the best of the best SA drifters showcase their skills by \u201ckeeping it sideways\u201d and burning rubber.<\/p>\n<p>An absolute must for anyone looking for their next adrenalin rush, the Seven Seven Sports bag-jump involves leaping off a 6m high tower onto a custom-made stunt airbag.<\/p>\n<p>As one of South Africa\u2019s newest extreme sports, bag-jumping is certainly not for the faint-hearted.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors can \u201cgear up\u201d for a good time with these action-packed activities or \u201cshift down\u201d at the food stalls or beer garden \u2013 either way, head to the Rock Raceway in Brakpan, from July 24 to 26, and secure your share of the excitement.<\/p>\n<p>Related articles:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/germistoncitynews.co.za\/92038\/carnival-city-partners-with-the-gauteng-motor-fest\/\" target=\"_blank\">Carnival City
