We are looking forward to some racing action this weekend.

We are running a DOUBLE header weekend on the 12th and 13th of September.

Saturday 12th of September will be the Memorial Night Meeting and the 13th will be Round 3 of the Kartsport Nelson Club Points Championship.

Please note that this is two separate events so it does require two separate entry forms if you wish to race both days.

The track will be open for practice on Friday the 11th for anyone wanting to get up to speed before racing on Saturday, however you will sign in via our website before hitting the track.

We are on the move.. you won't find us in Pascoe Street anymore but don't stress we are just moving around the corner to 29 Bolt Road.

We are still open but things are a tad messy at the moment as you'd expect.

Important! Date Change, Double Header...

We wanted to get this information out as soon as possible but due to the Kartsport New Zealand conference falling on the same weekend as our Memorial Night Meeting which was planned for the 15th of August we have had to make the tough decision to postpone this meeting to the 12th of September.

Although we recognize and appreciate that September is already a very busy month for our karting family with the Southern Series and Garden Cities on, there was a few key factors that help make our decision.

If we were to keep it on the original date set in August we either wouldn't of had anyone available to represent our club at the Kartsport NZ conference or we would of lost some key personnel that help out with the running of our race meetings. We also factored in that being a night meeting it will be slightly warmer but still dark enough to be running a night meeting.

We do apologize for any inconvenience this may of cause but we are excited to be running this double header weekend and hope you are able to make.

One of our custom kart sticker kits going through it's final stages, before they get shipped off a customer in Southland.

If you want your kart to stand out from the crowd and be different from everyone else, then please get in touch with us.. they just might be more affordable than you may think 🤔

NEW LAP RECORD!

Last Sunday Kevin Barker set a new lap record around Kartsport Nelson in the Briggs Heavy class onboard this borrowed Compkart 4R kart from Jason Lovell (Which is FOR SALE by the way).

Barker lowered the record 3 times over the day but due to the third time only being a "Fun" add on race unfortunately that one didn't officially count.

So if you are looking for a quick Briggs Kart then get in touch with us and we can arrange you a great deal with Jason.

We are very stoked to hear Indijayd Motorsport get awarded the Nelson Speedway Best Presented Ministock over the weekend.

She came to us 12 months ago with a detailed brief for us to work around and I'm glad we were able to bring that to life for her.

All the best for the up coming season team, and if YOU ARE wanting to make YOUR car stand out on track and give your sponsors the best exposure then now is the time to start those conversions and get in early before the mad speedway rush in a few months time.

Kev loves a good burnout too...
