The flask is ready. The chair is in the boot. The kids have been told three times that you’re leaving in five minutes, and you mean it this time. Because race day at Aldo Scribante doesn’t wait for anyone, and neither do you.
There’s a moment, right before the lights go out, when the entire grandstand goes quiet because every single person there knows what’s about to happen, and for the next four to six hours, you’re family.
That’s what the GR Cup does to South Africans. And that’s what Netstar has always understood; what what you love, you protect. What you protect, you show up for. We’ve been showing up on South African roads since 1994, keeping what matters most safe.
It’s not just a race. It’s your way of life. Keep your passion safe with Netstar.

The person who started training and the runner crossing that finish line today are not the same person.
Good luck to the Comrades Marathon runners on the road today.
