$100,000 playground fundraiser for kids with special needs
There will be a $100,000 target for stock cars taking to the track on Saturday - not for the drivers, but to help kids with disabilities.
Hamilton's Conductive Education centre wants to replace its 11-year-old playground.
Kids at the centre have a physical disability, such as cerebral palsy, and often "learning, communication or sensory needs", centre manager Sharon Harris said.
On Saturday, the Conductive Education Superstock Challenge at the Kihikihi track will try to raise $100,000 for the playground.
Ingham Hyundai, Wade Racing and Splice Construction are hosting the challenge.
