How long is the Euromarque Motorsport Park (Ruapuna) circuit?
The Full Circuit is 3.33km with 11 turns and an FIA Grade 3 licence, run anticlockwise. Six shorter configurations are used for club racing, drifting and drag events.
Who owns Ruapuna / Euromarque Motorsport Park?
It's owned and operated by the Canterbury Car Club on land leased from Christchurch City Council — one of the few remaining club-owned circuits in New Zealand. Euromarque became title sponsor in 2023, after previously being known as Mike Pero Motorsport Park and Powerbuilt Raceway.
Can spectators get close to the track at Ruapuna?
Yes — at many club events spectators can drive into the outer track area and watch from along the fence line, in addition to the two permanent grandstands.
Is Ruapuna the same as Canterbury Car Club?
Yes — Canterbury Car Club is the organisation that owns and runs the circuit at Ruapuna/Templeton, now known as Euromarque Motorsport Park. Ruapuna Speedway next door is a separate dirt oval on the same reserve.
