Welcome to the Nelson Drag Racing Associations website

Welcome to all our racers and race fans.

The 23-24 race season at The Rock FM Motueka Raceway was our 30th Anniversary year and our most successful season post covid, we had great fields with some excellent match racing, with great crowds there to watch.

Purpose built drag strip plans/update:
The club has started analysing soils, the site geography and investigating costing to building a drag strip within the Kohatu Park Motorsport Park.
