🚨 All Karting New Zealand licenses expire tonight 🚨

If you are a current Karting NZ License Holder (Competition or Practice) you would have received a pre populated form

You will have received an email with a link to renew for the 2026/2027 year.

Use this – it is an auto-renewal. You won’t have to wait for the KSNZ office to process.

DO NOT use a ‘blank’ form.

If you do this your historical licence number is GONE 😞

NOTE – if you have held both a Practice & Competition Licence in the 2025/2026 year you will receive two links – one for each.

Make sure you use the correct one you want.

If you have a Practice but want to upgrade to Competition for this coming year you will have to use a blank form.

With garden cities in a few weeks we are opening the track to reverse practice. Please follow the September schedule for which direction at what time.

Note that the track is closed for a working bee on 12th, the track will open once all the jobs are complete!

We need your help… 🪏🪏

We are holding a working bee on Saturday the 12th September. The aim is to get the track, pits and surround areas looking good again. We have a range of jobs to do including w**d whacking, w**d spraying, lawn mowing, brushing the track, filling in holes, and picking up rubbish.

If you have a w**d whacker, w**d sprayer, lawn mower, wheelbarrows, shovels, drills, hammer, broom, please bring these along :)

The track will be closed until all jobs are complete!!!

If there are any questions about the working bee, please reach out to Jarred or Kelly-Anne
