Bernard Tilanus: Rack-Rite Speed at Kyalami.

The 1980 South African racing season was defined by bold liveries and even bolder driving. This exclusive print captures Bernard Tilanus pushing his Chevron B25 through the corners of Kyalami.

The bright yellow Rack-Rite Shelving colors make this one of the most visually striking cars of the era. For fans of South African national racing history, this Roger Swan photograph is a perfect tribute to a driver who was a fixture of the competitive Highveld grid.
