The annual African Cup race was held on the 26th July 2008 at the TRAP venue near Pretoria,
South Africa.
Recognized as the toughest race in Africa, this year was no different. Drivers would have to
endure three qualifiers of ten minutes each followed by the 1/8th scale class racing a one hour
final and the 200mm Nitro Touring racing a semi-final & then a 45 minute A-Final.  All in one day!
