When John Kloof first entered the Fuel Speedway, he made it clear that the only reason he got into The Big Boot was to provide for his family. And it has been a long road for the family man.

It wasn’t long before he found himself at odds with playboy and self-proclaimed Casanova Jim Kieck who he rivalled with over a difference of opinion when it came to having women in their lives: one cherished the ground she walked on, the other, lived for the moment. This feud would culminate in the first ever One-KM Derby.

John would then work his way to the top of the F-X Series by first winning the Scramble Race and then battling Solo and Stevie to keep his newly won status. This would eventually bring him face to face with the King of Formula-X.

Mandla Xulu wasn’t always the top F-X racer that we know and love today. Once upon a time, he was but a humble politician. But when the F-X Series brought new life to the City of Ngelosi that he called home, he wanted nothing more than to be involved.

Mandla’s debut is to this day one of the most talked about. Entering the scene by challenging then King Thorne directly, Mandla would soon prove that the only thing faster than his political mind, was his engine, The Shosholoza.

Mandla would make history that has stood the test of time by capturing the F-X Crown within 2 months of his debut at The Scramble and has ruled with a mighty golden fist wrapped around his Crown ever since.

Come 31st of May, these two will meet in what is sure to be an epic race that will redefine what a feature race is in the F-X Series.
