Sounds fun. I'll be able to finish off those little jobs on mine.

Drag racing and show and shine will be my jam. Not interested in gymkhanas or track time.

Definitely keen and with enough warning I’m happy to travel anywhere in the country. I really enjoyed the road trip up for the last one.

I'll be going. Probably stay at Copthorne Solway Park. Has a bar and restaurant and is a 3 minute 2.5km drive up the street from Masterton Motorplex. Stayed there 25 years ago when my late fathers car club had their AGM/Rally there that weekend.

Drive up from Christchurch Thursday afternoon/evening. 11am Ferry Friday morning. Head back on the 4pm ferry on Monday.

Hi Mike,
Count me in although I may be hard to contact as I don't use Facebook and me access to the Forum is somewhat intermittent.

Re: MR2 Nationals October 2022-CANCELLED

Post by MIKEP »

BREAKING NEWS !! It is with great regret that we announce the 2022 MR2 Nationals is cancelled. We have had only 14 registrations or expressions of interest since we first advertised the event. The sponsors we had on board have chosen to withdraw their support due to the lack of registration. We have expended over 300 hours and a considerable amount of money in trying to make the event happen but due to less than 20 registrations nationwide we have no other choice. The MR2OCNZ will continue to support and arrange regional events and grow and support MR2 owners and members as per the club charter. Thanks to all those that assisted in trying to make this event happen

Hi MIke,
I have been having problems with the Forum, it won't let me post most of the time, ever since we changed our email address. I know that I am ot the only one having this problem. I am in but I won't be entering any track events; I don't have a suitable car. I am available to help though.

This event has now been cancelled. Only 14 entries we advised so the sponsors and organisers pulled out.
