The third installment of the Supertech Torque Motoring Festival, brought to you by Supertech Torque—the official car club of the Supertech Group—is set to electrify car enthusiasts at Dezzi Raceway in Port Shepstone this Easter weekend.
International stunt legend Didi Bizzarro, known for his work in Fast X, will attempt a never-before-seen stunt on South African soil: driving a BMW on two wheels around Dezzi Raceway. While the feat has been performed at Germany’s Nürburgring, this will be its local debut.
“We’re proud to bring something truly world-class to South African motoring fans,” said Ubaid Tayob, Managing Director of the Supertech Group. “Supertech Torque, the Supertech Lifestyle, and our iconic events are created with our customer at the heart of it. There is heritage to what we do, and having a global icon like Didi Bizzarro attempt a stunt of this magnitude on our home turf is an exciting moment for the Supertech Torque Motoring Festival. It speaks to passion, precision and performance that define our community, and we can’t wait to share that energy at Dezzi Raceway.”
As part of the stunt team, Bizzarro will have access to high-performance BMWs. “It would be a dream to do it with the new BMW M2 or BMW M4,” he said. Apart from welding the differential and adding a kill switch, the car will remain mostly stock. “We’ll rely on driving skill rather than extensive modifications.”
A BMW fan, Bizzarro says rear-wheel-drive models offer the responsiveness and balance he needs. “There’s a raw, direct connection between the driver and a rear-wheel-drive BMW. You feel everything, and that’s exactly what I need for this stunt.”
Bizzarro has been building up to the attempt through intense two-wheel training, focused on balance, speed control, and emergency recovery. “Every stunt, big or small, demands precision—so I treat them all with the same focus,” he said. “I visualise the entire sequence, trying to feel the balance of the car in advance.”
The Supertech Torque Motoring Festival takes place on April 19 and 20, 2025, at Dezzi Raceway in Port Shepstone, an hour from Durban. The festival will bring motorsport thrills, exhilarating track experiences and family-fun to KwaZulu-Natal this Easter weekend. Tickets are available through Webtickets.
