After a spectacular season on the track, Lindenberg Racing’s passion and experience have been rewarded with multiple class titles and the overall championship for James Temple. Their consistent performances across the Legends of the 9 Hour Series have cemented their position as one of South Africa’s leading racing teams.
Temple led the charge, taking first place in Legends Production Cars ZA with the Capri Perana, and in Le Mans Sports and GT A with the Shelby Daytona Coupe #33, added to his International Passion for Speed SATT domination. The coveted overall series was dominated by the Lindenberg Racing team, James Temple taking the title from his unbeaten season in the Daytona Coupe and probably for the first time ever, the same driver took 5th overall from his points scored in the Capri. Djurk claimed third overall in the series and won Le Mans Sports and GT C in his #24 Shelby Daytona Coupe. After not competing in the Ford Escort for the entire season he still wrapped up the Trans-Am C championship too. Meanwhile, teammate Paige Lindenberg finished the year with a Production Cars ZB class win in her Ford Fairlane as well as 4th overall in the series. Incredibly so, this gives Lindenberg Racing the top 4 of 5 positions in the overall championship for 2025.
“A title we hadn’t been able to achieve for the previous 3 years and not only did we win but I had two in the top 5”. Fantastic year for myself and the team and I am grateful for the opportunity to race in such a professional team. My biggest thanks to Remia for always giving me a fast and reliable car.” – James Temple
“This season has been incredible for us, one that will be hard to beat but then again, we’ve said that before” said Chiara Temple, Team Principal. “James, Djurk, and Paige consistently delivered top performances across the series, and these results reflect the skill, commitment, and teamwork that define Lindenberg Racing.”
The team’s success in the Legends of the 9 Hour Series reinforces Lindenberg Racing’s leadership in South African motorsport. Looking ahead, the team is preparing to celebrate its 49th year of competition in 2026, with a continued focus on performance and championship success.
