API Property Group x GTI Challenge 2026: Accelerating Performance On and Off the Track
The GTI Challenge has long been recognised as the home of tin-top racing in Cape Town. Known for its fierce competition, close racing, and passionate community, the series continues to deliver adrenaline-filled motorsport where skill, strategy, and consistency matter most.
As the partnership between API Property Group and the GTI Challenge evolves, the 2026 GTI Challenge season is set to build on the strong foundation laid in 2025.
Building on a High-Impact 2025 Season
The 2025 season marked a significant milestone for the API Property Group x GTI Challenge partnership. Beyond on-track competition, the season focused on brand storytelling, access, and engagement, bringing fans, brokers, and clients closer to the action than ever before.
A standout highlight was the GoPro collaboration, which introduced immersive, driver-perspective content that captured the intensity of GTI Challenge racing. From onboard footage to behind-the-scenes moments, the collaboration helped showcase the championship through the eyes of the drivers. This reinforced authenticity, excitement, and innovation.
These initiatives strengthened the sense of community that defines the GTI Challenge and set the tone for what’s to come in 2026.

About the GTI Challenge
The GTI Challenge is a controlled saloon car racing series featuring three competitive classes, ensuring a level playing field where driver skill outweighs financial advantage. This structure keeps the racing close, unpredictable, and highly engaging for competitors and spectators alike.
With familiar faces from industries such as property, logistics, and entrepreneurship on the grid, the championship continues to blur the line between business and motorsport. Commentary-fuelled race days, bumper-to-bumper battles, and a loyal fan base make every event a highlight on the Cape Town motorsport calendar.
