The detailed rules about bucket race bike engine capacities can be found in the MNZ rules that cover championship racing classes, including bucket race classes.
Engines from motocross bikes, enduro bikes, road-race bikes and pitbikes are not eligible. To be eligible for bucket racing, a motorcycle must have an engine that is derived from a road-legal motorcycle. Below is some general information and some useful links to the rules that relate to bucket racing. These rules can be found on the MNZ website. The rules that govern what types of bikes can be used for bucket racing and how bucket race meetings must be run are set out by MNZ (Motorcycling New Zealand) among the rules that govern all motorcycle racing in New Zealand.

The bucket calendar is released with the kart club calendar which runs from January to December, while the bucket racing season is July to June, so the new year dates are usually announced in October. The Auckland Motorcycle Club runs bucket meetings at the KartSport Mt Wellington kart track on dates published in advance. There are even bucket race meetings in the South Island for those keen to travel.Īlthough directly descended from airfield bucket racing, almost all events are currently run on outdoor kart tracks. There are opportunities to travel to other centres to race, such as Taumaranui, Wellington and Tokoroa. There is also a national GP title, currently raced at the Tokoroa kart track in March or April. There is a race meeting almost every month in Auckland, there are monthly practice days, an 8-round Auckland championship series, and two annual events - the two-hour two-man endurance race and the Dominic Howe Memorial Trophy race.
