MotorSport New Zealand have agreed to assign the Rally Safety Notes provider contract from Neil Allport Motorsports to Rally Notes New Zealand Limited.

Rally Notes New Zealand Limited is a new company led by experienced international co-driver John Kennard, of Blenheim, supported by Ian McKee, of Christchurch. The company will continue to use the Jemba Inertia Based Notes System for the creation of Safety Notes, in close conjunction with the system’s developers in Sweden.

“We would like to thank Neil, one of New Zealand’s most accomplished rally drivers, and all at Neil Allport Motorsports, plus their team of helpers,” said MotorSport New Zealand President, Deborah Day.

“For over 20 years, they have provided a dedicated service supplying Safety Notes to New Zealand rally competitors.”

Neil Allport Motorsport’s last event creating safety notes will be the 2025 Dayle ITM Gold Rush Rally Coromandel on August 23, while John and Ian will start their supply of safety notes from Battery Town Bay of Plenty Rally on October 11.

Competitors can purchase Safety Notes via [email protected] for Rally Bay of Plenty and Whangarei. Rally Notes New Zealand will supply safety notes for all MotorSport New Zealand permitted rally events for the duration of the agreement.
