Best bet would be to contact the Manawatu Car Club. Either Harlet or Truenotch will have their number at hand :D
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

Manawatu car club definately. Give Julian a call on 06 323 8290 or email manawatucarclub@xtra.co.nz

He'll be on holidays atm but we have a multi event coming up on January 13 & 14 which is a combination of grasskhana, motokhana and sprints spread over the 2 days, theres 3 of these this coming year. Hell fun and you get to meet heaps of the club members.

Best to keep an eye on the website too to see whats coming up.

Woohoo and I have a BOS car so I will not be sidelined for this event :D

And because i've found that manawatu club doesn't like to get there car's dirty this website comes in quite handy for gravel sprint dates etc

http://www.kapiticarclub.co.nz/

Then there always these forums which can be quite good

http://seabrightmotorsport.co.nz/forum/ ... 8081ae5133

Hope this helps cos if you want to do gravel sprints in my experience it's really hard to find any info up this way..

Oh and if you really want to do them and not destroy your road car i have the perfect thing for you

haha hopefully we will have a lot more gravel stuff happening this year. It's not that we dont like them it was that we didn't have the organisor to sort everything out.

Anyway: ***Autocross at Trevor Weirs Property on Waitangi Day 6th February 2007 12 oclock documentation 1pm the fight starts. This event is being run by Dannevirke Car club but it will be included in the MCC Club Championship Points and also the Curly Hamblyn Memorial BOS Championship Points. To get to Trevors head over the Pahiatua Track then take the Nikau Road that heads to the Marima Domain. Trevors place is just passed that at the top of the hill. Not sure where to go. Ring Rod Bracegirdle on 06 3741535 or Buck on 063296919 or 0274975675 otherwise see you there*******

if anyones keen
