2019 Race Dates

Hansen Products Tri 500, Superkart Club Championship:

Is a collection of 6 club points race events held over a 12 month period. Points awarded to drivers who have completed a club points race event will be the same as last year, and are specified on the race event entry form.

Any driver who completes all 24 races over the 6 rounds, will have raced a little over 500km's in total. Our club points race events will be held at Hampton Downs, Taupo and Manfeild. These three tracks complete the Tri, in our Tri Club points Championship.

In addition to end of year trophies and certificates, a Hansen Products Tri 500, Superkart Club Championship, large 1, 2 or 3, class place sticker will be awarded to the overall winners in each class, to place on the kart. During the series and after the completion of each club points race event a small 60mm, 1, 2 or 3 placing sticker will be given to the top 3 drivers in each class competing. These 'bullet' stickers are to be placed on the kart right side pod as recognition of achievement within the competition.

The series consists of 2 meetings held at Manfeild, Hampton Downs and Taupo race tracks. Each meeting consists of a practice day followed by another practice session, a qualifying session and 4 x7 lap races, on race day.
