Circuit
The circuit offers on and off track driving, an outdoor go-kart track, a sculpture park and mini golf. It is also the home of the New Zealand National Motorsport Museum, and displays machinery including ex-Formula One cars.
In early 2016, Highlands acquired the only Aston Martin Vulcan in the Southern Hemisphere, and one of only 24 worldwide, for $4.2 million.[2] It is currently on display at the National Motorsport Museum at the park. In 2016 the park introduced the Highlands Festival of Speed, held annually in mid-January.[3]
The entire Highlands complex is next door to the Central Motor Speedway, a ¼ mile (446 m (488 yd)) dirt track, egg shaped oval speedway that opened in December 1980.[4]
