Commenting via Facebook, Team Manager for the rising TH Racing squad, Willis Marshall candidly stated:
“It has taken many hours day and night to get this together, but at last we are off and running. There is a massive interest in the NW200 in South Africa and to have two of their countries finest at the event will I’m sure prove an even bigger hit in 2025.
Adolfs CV is very impressive, and the Northwest 200 will be another chapter in an already impressive career.
This will be a learning experience for Adolf at the Northwest 200 on his first visit, but he will have the knowledge that his friend and fellow countryman AJ Venter will be at hand and in the same awning, and we all welcome Adolf into the team.”
