Speedway

Roughly October through April — it's a summer sport, with most tracks racing Saturday nights and holiday-period showpiece meetings.

Gate entry at most NZ speedways is family-priced — typically cheaper than any other live motorsport. Check each meeting's listing for confirmed admission.

Uniquely NZ contact classes where blocking and hitting are legal within the rules — including famous teams racing. It's the wildest, most popular side of Kiwi speedway.

Very — it's short races all evening, easy viewing from the terraces, and most tracks run junior classes, making it many Kiwi kids' first motorsport experience.

Join your local speedway club — junior classes like ministocks start young, and entry-level adult classes are among the cheapest racing in the country. Club contacts are on each venue's page.
