Diamond Racetrack
Johannesburg, DSA
One of the many of the Dominion Circuit's smaller racetracks, the
Diamond runs a regular season from April to October. Racing Bodies,
cars, trikes, cycles and hovercraft events are held. Built in
2049, the Diamond Racetrack, aside for its obvious shape, is located
next to the international airport. This helps accommodate the rapid
arrival of racers for regional events.
