Awesome to see the team at VIP Frames & Trusses expanding their reach across Auckland and the upper North Island.
If you've got a project in the pipeline, it's worth giving them a shout. 👇

Very humbling to receive the Equus Southern fan favourite award for a second time last night at the Ruapuna Speedway dinner & awards banquet.

Thank you to everyone who voted - the backing from our fans both online and at the track means a lot to our team.

Winning awards like this wouldn’t be possible without family support, our hard working crew and our loyal sponsors for getting us to the track.

Thank you to Ruapuna Speedway and all of their volunteers for putting on a great season. Looking forward to the next one!

A little behind-the-scenes look at some throttle linkage maintenance 🔧

During the season, WD-40 Specialist Silicone Flexible is perfect for keeping linkages and moving components working smoothly without attracting dirt.

The 20cm flexible straw bends and holds its shape, making it easy to reach those tight spots around the engine.

We're thankful to be partnered with BM Race Parts!

BM Race Parts is a Christchurch-based carbon fibre specialist – handling everything from repairs to custom components. Before the season began, we handed over our damaged carbon body and BM Race Parts delivered results beyond our expectations.

They also produced new carbon lower panels for us which have held up great through a full season of racing. The quality of the work speaks for itself.

If you need carbon fibre work done, we can't recommend Ben at BM Race Parts enough!

Scenes from the Salute to Goodie at Ruapuna Speedway – thanks to Motorsport Files 📸

We had a good run Friday night putting the VIP Trade / WD-40 78 on the podium with a 2nd place finish.

Results from Friday night:

Heat one: 4th to 3rd.
Heat two: 9th to 4th.
Feature: 4th to 2nd.

It was a real shame we couldn't try again on Saturday night!

Huge thank you to all our partners for their continued support 👇

Strong start to our Gold Cup campaign, but unfortunately our weekend has come to an early end.

We picked up an issue during routine engine maintenance, and without a spare, our Gold Cup is over.

Frustrating, but that’s racing. Thanks to everyone for the support 👊
