Greymouth Street Races is normally an annual event in town that happens every October over Labour Weekend, which has just gone by. I watched the road crew on Saturday evening when I was at work setting up barriers and signs up along the main streets.
These are video footage I found online of the event which were uploaded by a spectator and go kart racer.
We were going to watch it but B and I had had a very busy week and we decided a day of rest and hibernating was much more needed than going out in the rain.

People who race like that are brave! So scary!
kind of surprising such events survive with all the modern healrh and safety stuff. We'll have to put it on our calendar for next year.
I imagine it's very noisy but exciting to watch.
Lots of noise! The go carts are the best!
Hibernating is sometimes the better choice!
Nice videos, but I don't think a race on such a dangerous circuit would be allowed here anymore.
...I hope thjat all where safe!
looks dangerous
It's called Kart Racing leave the go out as you will upset the people that do it, I used to help a mate who raced them. Not sure I would do it on a street it's bad enough on a circuit
I might add the guy in the kart was flat out all the time and hardly touched the breaks
Fast.
Very cool.
Exciting times, maybe you can see it next year.
Enjoyed the videos. Thanks for sharing.
Street racing is illegal in India.
We prefer it slowly 🎃🎃🎃 We drived with a Goldwing...
That would be fun to see but the rain would have had me wanting to hibernate too.
Happy Halloween.
Worth a Thousand Words
It fun to see things with cameras like that. From races to seeing what a dog does, I like to watch the points of view!
