    South Island track days?

    Are there any more track days scheduled in the South Island this summer? I've had a look at the Canterbury, Otago and Southland club calendars and they're all looking a bit bleak

    Another option is to rock up to Ruapuna on a friday afternoon ,think its about 50 bucks ,alternating 20 min sessions with the cages, more riding than you'll ever get at a trackday.
    I think its also not limited to just a friday, and for 5 hundy a year you get unlimited use of the track

    That is a CAMS meeting and I am pretty sure they don't have a class for trackday riders. I may be wrong however.

    The southland motorcycle club usually has a class for trackday riders, they have meetings on the 14th of Feb and 18th of April

    Had a look at the calendar on the sccc website who owns levels. The track is booked out on the 20th March for the otago mcc. So that should be the next one there

    Yes they do, pays to ring and check though, sometimes the track is hired out
