Rex Bentham's Jaguar Mk 2 at Hampton Downs Mar 20th 2021.


The Hampton Downs race complex was the brainchild of Chris Watson, Tony Roberts and the late Geoff Manning. The circuit was initially supposed to be financed from the profits from the sale of 80, 2 bedroom trackside apartments, on what was Waikato farmland, but a combination of factors caused a costly delay. The first race meetings were run late 2009 and the official opening was January 2010, with much of the organising of entrants by festival chairman, Jim Barclay.
