Best driving roads in New Zealand

[39KiwiTouring 2]

South Island roads are amazing, that one through the Lewis pass and those s bends before springs junction just awesome, tempted to turn around and do them again that day.

You need a good grunty car for down there the XR6 loved it, M5 would be mind blowing.

Minimal traffic after 12am

haven't been on Moonshine Road for quite a while, but it used to be a regular as my mate's parents had a batch out Bulls Run Road

my mate had a 1275gt mini that he would drive through there at some crazy speeds, damn that thing could corner well

Blue Mountains is a regular drive for me when I visit my mates in Silverstream, heaps more fun than SH2 lol but yea the road gets a bit sketchy in places

watch out for cyclists and people riding horses during daylight hours

Anyone done all of akatarawa road?

Ive only got as far as staglands lol

yep a few times, only late night though lol

was the quickest way to get to my now ex's place

I reckon Raetihi to Wanganui on SH4 is still up there.

mum used to live in Raetihi, I always went parapara's, last time I went through was just as they were starting the re-alignment work though

Ohukuni 17km hillclimb?

The clubman hillclimb championship?

There was a tarmac rally in New Plymouth if i remember correctly.

Twilight Sprints at puke.

Cheers

In the South Island I was meaning.

The New Plymouth Rally is part of Targa main event now from what I understand.
