Programme of events

THE TRACK IS RUNNING A TEST DAY ON FRIDAY

$195 for the Test Day plus 1/3 garage hire of $50 for the day. Book through the link Taupo Race Bike Test Day  or call the track 07 376 5033. 

EVENT INFORMATION

Due to greatly increased pricing the NZCMRR committee have decided to do two things. 

1. We will be substantially subsidising the entry fee for this event this time.  To cover the increased/new costs entries should now be in the $450 region for a 2 day meeting at either Hampton or Taupo.

2. We have come to an arrangement with Taupo so that we can still offer camping on site for Friday and Saturday nights only.   Over night, track supplied, security is now mandatory - Taupo and the NZCMRR are sharing this cost. The track has stated that for the NZCMRR they make an exception from their normal registration form terms - no tents, and would prefer self contained vehicles. Campers pay $50 per vehicle per night to stay unpowered ($50 powered site surcharge).  Hopefully enough people will take up the offer to warrant the extRa cost involved.  Use the following link to book your camping and to make payment Fri & Sat overnight registration
