The race is in preparation for the 36-year-old's FIM sanctioned race debut in the World Of Motorsport ZA (WOMZA) series next month in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Pilane will on Saturday make first appearance in the super motorcycle world.
Speaking to Monitor Sport over the weekend, Pilane said he is excited ahead of his first track and explained that the aim is to fine tune his skills ahead a competitive debut next month. "I am excited, you know when you think you are good at something but when someone who is good at that tells you can make it.
I got in touch with the instructors at Redstar and they think I should fine tune a bit there and there. So this race on Saturday I am going to use to prepare for the WOMZA next month," he said. The Tlokweng born biker says he has always developed a passion for the motorcycles at a tender age but actually tried it out in 2019. His dreams were nearly shattered last year August after being involved in a car accident. "I almost got killed bya car. The car smacked me when i was on my bike.
I almost lost it all, this was August 11 last year. At the time, I could stand the physical pain but what was most painful was the thought that I might not race again. It has been a passion for me since I was young, I have since paused on my career as an attorney and trying to go full professional," he said. Pilane will be leaving from South Africa tomorrow (Tuesday).
