In traditions with the other championships, the warm-up event was integrated into the host's national championship, the 6th African Cup.The event along with the 1:5 Large Scale Worlds, also hosted by TRAP the previous month, would be remembered for being heavily boycotted by factory teams and drivers over security issues, as competitors were concerned for their safety following a number of incidents in 2002, notably involving Masami Hirosaka and the future IFMAR president Dallas Mathiesen, resulting to the assailant being swiftly dealt with and handed over to the police by the latter. This meant that a majority of entries consisted of South African drivers and three international entries.

This became his only international championship A-main appearance.
