All day saturday, it is part of the waiuku dirt track club. In the off season they run hillclimb/rallysprint events. They have historic use rights and are the only ones allowed to run in the waiuku forest so it's pretty cool. Of course dirt track cars are not the most pretty cars in the world but I keep my mk1.5 pretty nice since some of the cars standards are pretty high just the dirt track club is the event organiser. I want to win the 4 banger class this year I ran it last season but only got third mainly due to realiability issues.

I raced at puke a few times but it is a real horsepower track, v6's and big turbos wipe the floor with the poor 2 (my n/a box tops out at just over 200kph), I made heaps of time in the S's and the hairpin under braking but horsepower just won on that track. It's why I like the rally sprints it lets the little cars haul the big powerful cars times in round the corners.

My parents place is right in puke but my dads work/big shed is out clarks beach way and to get there you pass through patamahoe so you are close to where I cruise round.
