Playday's Southern Tour 2024

Bike Tour

We are doing it again!

Teretonga, Levels and Ruapuna.

6 track days from the 19th February through to the 28th February

Playday have hosted The Southern Tour for many years and it is just an epic event, the tracks are great but for me it is the socialising and the great friends that are made along the way. So many ways to do it, ride, drive, fly, however you choose this will be a road trip and Playday event that you will never forget.

The Southern Tour

Entries are open. All bookings will be via our online booking system at https://www.enterme.co.nz/index/

Please make sure you book the correct tour for your vehicle,

E.g. bikes are on the bike tour, cars are on the car tour and our prestige cars have their own tour.

E.g. 2. Would hate for your Ducati to be out there playing with Corolla’s. please make sure you book the correct Tour

Well here we go again, The Southern Tour is the ultimate

This year we have a different plan from previous years. This time around we will be hosting 3 completely different tours, one tour for the Cars, one tour for the Bikes and another tour for the Prestige Cars

Important Information

PRESTIGE GROUP

Road cars only, slicks are not allowed, no race cars. Qualifies for Track day cover if you are insured with Prestigio but remember to confirm with them prior to the event. Only 14 cars per group so plenty of room for you to have fun.

The Road Trip:

We will be travelling down the West Coast and anyone wanting to travel with us is welcome to. We will send out a list of where we are staying, you can choose to stay there or elsewhere. The accommodation we have chosen stay at has food & drink facilities on site or close by, this has made for some really good nights. All our accommodation suppliers will give you corporate rates if you mention Playday when you make your booking.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

Levels Racetrack at Timaru started life “out in the country” but now has a number of neighbors'. As a result the track can only be hired 75 days per year & they have a few rules they must abide by,

Those rules flow on to us & must be respected. As a result the following must be complied with & it really isn’t difficult

1. Noise levels must not exceed 95.0dBA (That’s fairly loud)

2. Helmets must meet Motorsport NZ Current standards. These can be found in the Motorsport manual.

3. Overalls must be CLEAN & Fire Retardant or Self Extinguishing. 100% Cotton is deemed self extinguishing. (Poly Cotton blends do not comply) Enclosed footwear must be worn.

4. A Fire Extinguisher, minimum 1kg Powder or 1 ltr Foam securely mounted in the car with a metal bracket with 2 clips. (Super Cheap Autos have these for around $30.00)

5. Oil catch can, this is mainly for modified cars as most standard vehicles vent the crank case back into the air intake system, any vehicle venting the crank case to the atmosphere must be fitted with an oil catch can.

6. Secured Battery, factory metal brackets are fine unless your car has a modification that requires something more.

Scrutineering at Levels will be done by Levels scrutineers as per their request; this will not be hard but a general safety check. As your car will either be up to race or WOF standard there should be no problem.

Noise levels must not exceed 95.0dBA at any track.
