Drag Racing at Masterton this weekend

Denise Landow from Destination Wairarapa

More than 36 cars have been confirmed for the country’s biggest ever drag meet in Masterton this weekend.


Wildbunch vs Outlaw 71

This is the first of many killer match ups for Marsh Motorsport Mayhem at Masterton. Dean Scott leads off for the Wildbunch team in the stout Chevy S10 Ute. Ross Brown will be driving in the super consistent and fast FED. Having just run 7.00, Rosco will be right there and this race will be a game of inches.

Each match up announced will be the ‘best of three’ across the day, unless one of the lads breaks with a point scored for their team for each win.

Gate Entry $30 per day, Under 14 Free
*No Alcohol or Pets Please

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
