He forgot it is being built in the south island, so of course it will be built properly.

They'll probably stuff it up and put tarmac down or something silly...

That would make a mint rallycross track. Im all for going out and having a wee peek.

Have to agree with this, New Zealands own ultimate track.
Pity OHS will put a damper on it to prevent us getting a scratch on our balls anticipating driving/riding it.
But Im sure there will plenty of "test" days my international companies wanting to use it as a proving ground.

Yeah, lovely to look at but fukn lousy to hit. Great layout but I'm thinkin' that it ain't designed with bikes even remotely in mind.

Awesome! Wish I wasn't too fat for my leathers. I would have loved for that to have been up and running when I was!! Anyone still involved will be lucky to have such a track to ride. Hat's off to all involved.

Wow very cool track!. Some knarly 90 degree corners and tight hair pin near the end for good measure. We now know its a clockwise track... May need to remove some of those trees otherwise there will be variable drying after a shower of rain... Some of the track was still damp and the rest was dusty.
The ute did about 2 minute lap time in "greasy conditions" - what will a superbike do?

Nothing is faster than a southern ute.

Unfortunatlyas im told its going to be a track for the test companies and rich buggers to play in.
The owner is building it for his son to run and hasnt involved mnz or motorsport nz on design or spec for racing and all the track is going to be controled with corner lighs from a main centre in the pits instead of marshels.
I could be and hope im wrong with this but where i heard this is pretty reliable.
winding up stucky since ages ago
Who You Calling a Pig
You probably are given that lack of information that is out there about it, wont be a lot different to Rod Millen and his "Driveway" up north that is actually a sealed hill climb track.
And lets face it, motorsport in NZ doesn't make money, Hampton Downs was quite clear about that when they started there track. The whole business model was about cooperate days etc. to pay for the motorsport on the weekends.
Would be hell of a shame though never to see anyone race there.
