Where to get started?

Minilites is what you're after. Victoria Motorcycle Club runs them with the pro lites and s/stock 150's. Here is a link to the rules and regs etc...:

Anything closer to Auckland? Even driving to Taupo and back + accommodation would cost me $200. Does the minilites not run up here or something?

No idea. Check out Auckland Motorcycle Club and Pacific Motorcycle Club websites. PMCC often hold races at Taupo.....

$200 is chicken feed for a race weekend.....
You have a bike. Turn it into a race bike for nicks, and use the 7K you say you have as your race budget.


But if you only want to race in Auckland, then you are better to get a Ninja and race ProLite...

Mini lites don't run in Auckland as far as I'm aware.
If $200 transport etc for a weekend scares you I'd spend some time talking to people racing the classes you are interested in racing on and put together some sort of budget, the results may scare you. If you want to get a lot of racing in, in Auckland, for cheapish come and catch up with me at buckets this weekend. Blue bike number 13. Will be there some of Saturday and all of Sunday.
