The Pro-Sport field is also in town for their opening round, which means the track barely goes quiet from the first practice runs right through to the final battles, and there's always something worth watching no matter when you arrive. ​We can't think of a better way to start the season than where the sun rises first in the world with as much drifting as we can possibly fit in. WHAT TO EXPECT: Pro Championship Double-Header: Rounds 1 and 2 of the Pro series run back to back, with two full rounds of points up for grabs in one weekend. Pro-Sport Round 1: The next wave of drivers get their season underway, and plenty of them are pushing hard to kick their season off with a bang. Hard Park: It's back, so you can wander through the dedicated zone and check out the builds up close. Merch: Catch up with the drivers behind the sport and grab some official D1NZ gear. Food Trucks: Good food and somewhere to kick back between battles. VENUE DETAILS: 210 Dunstan Road, Gisborne. The venue address is private property and there's no public access outside of the official event dates, so please don't head out to the site before the weekend. Turning up early puts pressure on the landowners and could cause problems for the event itself, so we're asking everyone to respect the space and save the visit for when the gates open. ## Schedule ## Organisers D1NZ: https://racefy.co/organiser/d1nz-f55a99b6-efb8-4de6-92e5-11d0523d9603 ## Location 210 Dunstan Road 210 Dunstan Road, Matawhero, Gisborne 4071, New Zealand ### Book accommodation near this event RATES DISPLAYED ARE PER NIGHT Image: Racefy (https://media.base44.com/images/public/69e59449d1ffd0028afbb22d/f3dc9772e_RacefyLogo.svg) Global motorsport community. ## Explore - All Events: https://racefy.co/events - Venues: https://racefy.co/venues - Categories: https://racefy.co/categories - Organisers: https://racefy.co/organisers ## Account - Sign In / Join: https://racefy.co/auth ## Promote - List Your Events: https://racefy.co/list-events - Partnerships & Advertising: https://racefy.co/advertise © 2026 Racefy Network.
