Petrol and Perfume Petrol & Perfume is an innovative initiative dedicated to empowering women in motoring by blending passion with purpose. Watch this space!

Our mission is to inspire women to pursue their dreams and ambitions, no matter the challenges. Beneath the calm and collective exterior, is there a speed freak hiding? When you get behind the wheel, do you listen to classical music to calm the jets so as not to ram your vehicle into a slow-coach's ass, or are you the speed-freak with an average of ZAR50k speeding fines in the back of your closet that might disappear in the yonder if you don't give it much thought? If you have said YES to any of these scenarios, then you should use the Petrol & Perfume Brigade. We will be organising female racing events, where you can let loose and unleash your inner racing She-devil!

Ulandi Exner — co-founder of Petrol and Perfume is up to her usual shenanigans… but this time, she’s taken them **properly off-road!** 😂🚙💨

Mud? ✔️
Mayhem? ✔️
Shenanigans? **Oh, they’ve gone 4WD.** 🤣
Common sense? **Apparently, that stayed on the tar.** 😂

Catch Ulandi in the latest **4WD to the Max** series on **Ignition TV, 7 December**.

**Because when Ulandi takes her shenanigans off-road, even the shenanigans need a 4WD to keep up!** 🚙💨😂

Meet the 4WD to the MAX (Series 6) contestants!

At the back, Sakkie Coetzee (left), a regular 4x4 Bridgestone Club Challenge winner. Grant McCleery, an 11 times SA national motorsport champion, is on the right.

Bradley Liebenberg (second row from back,left) is just 27 years old, but already has 11 SA national championship titles behind his name. His team-mate is Jonathan Mogotsi (far right of the same row), one of SA's great young motorsport talents, who also competes internationally at the infamous Nurburgring track in Germany.

The legendary Roelf du Plessis is in the middle, with his daughter Rachelle in front of him. Roelf is one of the great characters of the SA motorsport scene, famed for racing production cars like the Mazda MX-6 and more recently, 800 hp V8 Sprint cars. His daughter Rachelle is not only a highly accomplished oval and circuit racer herself, she is also an international Sevens rugby player.

To Rachelle's left is Adam May, younger brother of the famed Stacey-Lee May (front row, right), and also a highly accomplished spinner himself. Stacey is also known as the Queen of Smoke, thanks to her spinning abilities, and has even appeared in Charlize Theron's Netflix series Hyperdrive.

Ulandi Exner (left, front) is not only an accomplished business executive, she also races cars. Lots of them. She has a Mini Cooper S, a Subaru Impreza and even a drift car in her garage. Anriette van Wyk (front, right) is Ulandi's team-mate. Anriette is an advanced driving instructor by day, and a Formula Vee single seater racer on the weekend.

Who will take the crown this year? Will it be the legends, with all the experience in the world? Will it be the young VW chargers, who represent the sharpest end of our future motorsport spear? What about the wily Du Plessis father-and-daughter duo? Can the spinners take the fight to the competition? And what about the all-female duo... can they show the men a thing or three?

The series kicks of on 7 December on DStv's Ignition channel.

🏁 DID YOU KNOW? | THE CLERK OF THE COURSE

Who keeps a motorsport event on track when things don’t quite go to plan? 👀

Meet the Clerk of the Course, who has overall responsibility for the conduct and control of the motorsport event.

From the start of the event through to the final results, the Clerk of the Course is responsible for making sure:

📋 The event is run in accordance with the regulations
👥 Officials are in place and carrying out their duties
🛡️ The necessary safety services are in place
⏱️ The programme is followed
🚨 Decisions are made when the unexpected happens

And when something goes wrong? The Clerk of the Course may be the one who has to make the call.

It’s a big responsibility, but it’s also an important role for anyone looking to become more involved in the running of motorsport events.
