NEW DRIVERS, RE-ENERGISED UTES SIGNAL THE DAWN OF A NEW SEASON.
The grid is filling up, the V8 Utes are tuned & ready for the PTS Logistics’ Round One at Manfeild, 23-25 October. With Peter Bennett be joining us after enjoying success in the BMW E30's & Ssang Yong utes, and Alex Fougere driving Daniel Ludlam's ute just for Round One, Manfeild will set the scene for a huge 2026/27 season.
THE NEW SEASON IS POISED FOR LIFT-OFF AT MANFEILD OCT 23-25.
PTS LOGISTICS WILL BE TITLE SPONSOR OF ROUND ONE AT MANFEILD
We're stoked to have the support of PTS Logistics at Manfeild in October. PTS do a lot more than moving V8 Utes around the country - as they did in 2025 and will again in 2027. PTS is a 100% New Zealand-owned logistics business headquartered in Palmerston North with branches from Whangarei to Invercargill.
PTS operate across two brands. PTS Logistics handles freight, warehousing and 3PL, while Auto Logistics moves vehicles nationwide. Together, the PTS teams move more than 230,000 vehicles a year and store and distribute product for some of New Zealand's largest agricultural, automotive and industrial manufacturers.
They've grown a lot since 1976. Still based in 'Palmy', still New Zealand owned - and still focused on getting the job done properly.
