About KartSport Hawke's Bay

KartSport Hawke’s Bay is an owner-driver club at the 687-metre CCR Raceway in Fernhill, with licensed practice, monthly Club Days and KartSport New Zealand competition. It does not offer birthday-party or casual kart hire, although children aged six to ten can register interest for mentored Have A Go sessions and drivers aged ten or older can apply for a separately assessed Arrive and Drive Club Day. Access depends on the relevant club process and KartSport licence, so Kart Directory exposes no booking button or external checkout.

Detailed guide

Owner-driver karting at CCR Raceway

KartSport Hawke’s Bay is a KartSport New Zealand affiliated club rather than an everyday rental attraction. Its year-round programme focuses on member practice, Club Days, championships and structured introductions for people genuinely considering the sport.

Track and practice access

  • Circuit: CCR Raceway is 687 metres long with eight corners and clockwise or anticlockwise operation.
  • Capacity: the A-rated circuit publishes a maximum of 24 karts.
  • Visitors: practice requires membership of an affiliated club, a current KartSport licence, an indemnity and advance permission.
  • Practice: licensed sessions run 09:00-17:00 in ten-minute groups when no event is using the track.

Two introduction routes

  • Have A Go: ages six to ten receive a kart, protective equipment, a mentor and three sets of ten laps.
  • No casual hire: Have A Go is not available for birthdays or an ordinary leisure rental.
  • Arrive and Drive: drivers aged ten and older can apply to use a supplied 9hp Briggs LO206 kart for a full Club Day.
  • Assessment: the Arrive and Drive route includes fitting, track testing and a skill decision before joining club racing.

Facilities and planning

  • Club facilities: the site includes a clubhouse, kitchen, bar, bathrooms, 16 pit shelters and trailer space.
  • Race support: a weigh shed, fuel dump, compressed air, control lights, grandstand and live timing support events.
  • Calendar: Have A Go, Arrive and Drive and race dates are scheduled rather than offered as walk-ins.
  • No directory booking: this listing has no booking CTA, external URL or inferred public availability.
