What a season it’s been so far 💥🏁

Here are a few of our favourite moments from the track, all captured by the incredibly talented James Selwyn Photos 📸 Absolute magic behind the lens!

From sideways action to full-send battles, it’s been unreal seeing the Vertex colours out there getting amongst it every week.

And the best part? We’re not done yet. There’s still plenty of racing happening around the country in the coming weeks, so get out there, support your local tracks, back your favourite drivers and teams, and soak it all in while the season’s still hot 🔥

Nothing beats live speedway 🙌

Champions. Horsepower. Results. 🏆🔥
Vertex is proud to be part of winning teams at the very top of NZ speedway.

Recently, professional Sprintcar driver Brenham Crouch represented Vertex with the Daniel Anderson Racing (D.A.R.) team in Cromwell and Christchurch, lining up alongside 2023/24 NZ National Champion and rising Californian star Joel Myers Jnr.

We wish Brenham all the best as he heads into his US domestic season, and send our support to Joel and the D.A.R. team as they take on the National Championship in Cromwell this January.

And speaking of champions…
2024/25 Sprintcar National Champion Max Guilford claimed his title with Vertex and D.A.R., making us back-to-back winners in the brutal 900-horsepower Sprintcar division.

There’s a lot that goes into packaging our own oil right here in Aotearoa and TWL has captured it perfectly.

While we want you all to have fun out there watching NZ's best drivers on these incredible roads, please remember some really important things...

🚯𝗟𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗡𝗢 𝗿𝘂𝗯𝗯𝗶𝘀𝗵 - we are there at the grace of the local councils and local residents, so please pickup any rubbish even if its not yours.
🏠𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘆 - while we have closed the roads, we don't own or manage the properties surrounding the roads. So if you are going to climb a fence, please treat it as yours and look after it, plus keep away from any stock. Respect other peoples property and DO NOT cause any damage.
👮🏾‍♀️𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝘀 - yes we know you have been spectating for ages and know all the right places to stand. But if the marshal asks you to move, please do so. Don't argue or harass them, they are volunteers doing a job that allows the rally to happen (more below on this)
🚗𝗘𝘆𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝘀 - always keep your eyes on the cars, never turn your back on the car and always move off the road when a car is coming, don't assume they have seen you.
🏔𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 - some places are just not safe - so the guide at the link below will help you to judge if you are standing in a safe spot. If you are told you are not and have too move, then please do. Our safety cars if not satisfied can CANCEL the stage if they are not happy with your safety and you are not listening.
