This Sunday will see the final round of the Auckland Motorcycle Club Summer Series for 2019-20, to be held on the National Circuit at Hampton Downs in the North Waikato. And in the tradition of the past several seasons, the Series will close out with a double-points showdown that typically keeps the class results wide-open till the flag falls on the final race.
The exception however, is the extremely popular Carl Cox Motorsport Hyosung and Ninja Cup. The Cup will continue on into 2020, with two additional rounds early in the New Year to conclude the hugely competitive development Series that offers classes for both 250 Hyosung’s, and the Kawasaki EX400. These classes run as a combined grid.
A range of National classes are catered for across the Senior, Intermediate and Junior categories; and the Post Classics, Clubman’s and Sidecars will complement the program to provide a full day of on-track action.
It’s the perfect preparation for the Suzuki Series, commencing early December; and valuable track time for those competing in the NZSBK which follows, as HD MotoFest is again scheduled to host Round Three of the National Championships in early March, 2020.
Entry is $15 for adults, and Under-12 are free.
Practice/qualifying starts at 09:00, and racing gets under way at 11:00.
The 2019-2020 Series is organised and promoted by the Auckland Motorcycle Club – who acknowledge all their valuable partners:
