ATTENTION ALL DRIVERS

CHARGE YOUR TRANSPONDERS!

Before you head to the track, make sure your transponder is FULLY CHARGED and ready for race weekend.

A flat transponder won’t record your laps. No recorded laps means no race result — it will be like you never raced!

✅ Fully charge it before the event.

✅ Make sure it is fitted correctly.

Your transponder is YOUR responsibility. Don’t let a flat battery ruin your weekend!

THE JOURNEY TO CANTERBURY HAS BEGUN!

It’s awesome to see committed offroad racers from across New Zealand starting their journey to Canterbury, ready to battle for national honours!

The 2026 CT Civil New Zealand Offroad Racing National Finals, brought to you by Destination Apparel, in conjunction with Discover NZ Motorhome Rentals and Repco, is hosted by the Canterbury Offroad Racing Club at the birthplace of stadium offroad racing in New Zealand!

📍 Canterbury Offroad Raceway, Weedons Ross Road, West Melton
📅 Saturday 24 & Sunday 25 October

TWO FULL DAYS OF RACING ACTION — ONE VENUE!

SATURDAY — SHORT COURSE SHOWDOWN
All classes will tackle four five-lap heats, battling for every position. There’s even more riding on those laps — each driver’s fastest lap on Saturday will determine their starting position for Sunday’s enduro!

SUNDAY — 250 KM ENDURANCE BATTLE
The cars leave the stadium and head into the West Melton forest, stretching their legs on the fast sections before testing their brakes through the winding course and charging back into the stadium. Speed, endurance and keeping the car together will all count!

NATIONAL TITLES ARE ON THE LINE!
By the end of the weekend, one driver in each class will be crowned National Champion.

From our youngest racers, starting at just six years old, through to the adults — and machines ranging from 10 hp to over 600 hp — there’s something for everyone to cheer for!

Bring the family, pick your favourites and enjoy a weekend packed with racing, rivalries and offroad action!

THE DRIVERS ARE COMING. THE TITLES ARE WAITING. BE THERE TO SEE WHO TAKES THEM HOME!
