I am trying to find an article in Motorsport about Pollsmoor circuit near Cape Town. If someone could help me with the issue number or date I would appreciate it. I don't think it was within the past five years. Thanks.

There was a nice article called POLLSMOOR GRAND PRIX in the Oct 1984 edition of CAR (South Africa) magazine. I myself will be interested to see the article in MOTOR SPORT...

Motor Sport magazine of May 1995 features a five page history of the circuit at Pollsmoor (aka Grosvenor Park)

Perhaps it is the same article? The one in CAR was written by Andre Loubser. Here is also something I wrote on the first GP at this circuit:

Could very well be the same - or similar article. The Motor Sport article was signed "A.L"

Here is an excellent report on the 1937 Grand Prix held at Pollsmoor:
