the track was in tremendous condition and lent itself to a spectaculars days
racing. The club would like to thank the Reade family who very kindly sponsored
the meeting and supplied some fantastic trophies.
In the Autos it was a
newcomer to the club, Ryan Vickers, who dominated the proceedings. He led from
start to finish in all three races. Jake Barsby and
James Camwell battled it out for second and third
places respectively. Jake managed to pip James to second place overall with
some great riding. James had a couple of falls but showed his potential for the
rest of the year.
In the 65’s there were three
different winners, which left the overall results very tight indeed. Charlie Buttriss ,
Caylem Cobb and Jack Camwell
all won a race each. Charlie and Caylem tied on
points but first overall went to Charlie courtesy of the better place finish in
the last race. Young Jack Camwell had a great day
finishing in third overall with some exceptional riding in his first full year
in the 65’s. Joe Hood and Rob Colebrook also had some impressive rides, both
achieving top 3 finishes.
In the Small Wheel 85’s
reigning club champ, Jordan Hind, started the year well with two first places
and first overall. He didn’t have it all his own way with two of the young
guns, Jack Gregory and Max Hind, hot on his tail. Jack rode brilliantly and his results got
better all day, finishing with a win despite a crash with
In the Big Wheel 85’s Ben Rollison’s CR 150 F was awesome out the starts, giving him
a good head start in most of the races. However, Aaron Pipon
pushed his Honda 85 hard and eventually caught and past Ben in every race for
the second maximum of the day. Mark Sharman and Billy King finished in third
and fourth respectively after some great battles.
The schoolboy 125’s was
dominated by Lee Sharpe, whose smooth riding and
exceptional technique through the whoops, gave him an unassailable lead and the
third maximum of the day. Newly upgraded Sean Satchwell
showed two strokes are still competitive with a fantastic second overall after
a great days riding. Ashley Mould efforts earned him the third and final place
on the podium. Reigning champ Peter Cole had a couple of good rides, but an off
in the first race left him unable to start his four stroke and out of the top placings for the day.
Matt White cleaned up in the
adults with the final maximum of the day. His pace was just a little too hot
for the rest of the pack. Darren Manning -Coe and Richard Chapman battled it
out for second and third with Darren winning the battle courtesy of a better
finish in the last race. Rob Flaherty finished the day in fifth place but
managed a brilliant third in the last race.
