The CT Civil New Zealand Offroad Racing National Championship's final round has attracted a record 67-strong entry.
While the final round rarely attracts bigger grids than the six regional events, the 2025 final has the biggest field of the championship including a 21st century all-time record grid of 17 class three race cars.
With four days to go, 67 cars and trucks are lined up to race one of the best tracks in the sport at TECT Park, near Tauranga. Organisers are quietly confident of breaking through into a final entry of 70 or more race cars and trucks.
The two day event starts on Labour Weekend Saturday with short course racing on the Waikato club's track from 11.00 am; the final race of the 2025 championship on Sunday is a 150km enduro on a long course which includes the short course track. Spectator admission: $10 per adult, kids under 13 are free.
