Durban to host its first Shay iMoto spinning festival
Motorsport fans in Durban will be pleased to know that Red Bull is bringing their prestigious Shay' iMoto spinning event to the city in August at the Suncoast Casino. Petrolheads, car enthusiasts and hardcore spin fans will have the opportunity to witness the country's best spinning artists painting their masterpieces on thde Durban tarmac. From King Katra and Sam Sam to Panjaro Kruger and reigning champion Chadwin 'Boksie' Hadjie, the city will play host to spinning royalty this winter. The cooler conditions in August, combined with Durban's coastal location, are set to enhance vehicle performance. Most spinning cars used in the scene today are naturally aspirated, and these engines benefit significantly from the oxygen-rich atmosphere at sea level, as more oxygen improves combustion efficiency — giving performance cars more 'juice'.
