Cusses Gorse After an amazing start to the season, round two was upon us and it had lots to live up to - it didn’t disappoint. A world level venue paired with another strong attendance set up a great weekend racing in all classes. Here is what happened. Open Class Qualifying This session took up exactly where the last round left off and it was tight at the top. Mark McCann took pole but Paul Severn in second place was just five tenths behind. Shaun Haran secured third place with another of the experts Adrian / Callum Loveridge in fourth. Fifth place was the first of the rookie’s home as Jess Barker beat her Godfather Louis McGuffog for the rookie top spot. David Watsons consistency again proved important placing him seventh on the grid. Wayne Harris had a good session moving up the pack to eighth beating good friend Nick barker in ninth no doubt fuelling some humour in the pit area. Tenth place belonged to Rio Longdon which marked the front car of five all on the same second, again proving there is competition all over the [...]

2022 Polaris British SXS Championship Youth RD1

2022-04-07T11:52:06+01:00

Every year there is excitement around the Youth Class and this year was no different. Lots of movement in and out of the class meant nobody could be sure of who would come out on top. The track prep went well and the entries where in. Its time to go racing. Qualifying The early speed was with Fred Tarrant as he threw down a lap time that nobody could match. It seems right that Fred would be front of the pack, but could he stay consistent enough to win the day. Next up in second place was the first of the McGuffog brothers with Harley setting a solid time to beat Jack barker into third. Next in grabbing fourth place was Jude Scotney who certainly seems to have grown in confidence in the winter which is great to see. Newcomer Ella Hales crossed the line in fifth spot keeping the Hales name strong in the Youth Class no doubt with some advice and support from Champion brother George. Sophie Bird stepped up to sixth with Lenny McGuffog just one second behind in seventh. Newcomers Olly Hedges and Blake [...]

Sunshine & Snow Last weekend marked the start of the 2022 race season and what a start it was. Neuadd farm MX was the venue and as a long-term driver favourite track the event was setting up nicely. The weather in the build-up was unpredictable to say the least and the track team seen all four seasons in one day on more than one occasion. Severe frost and snow on the Friday did see some concern but the sunshine soon dealt with that. The track was ready the entries were strong, and it was time to go racing. Open Class Qualifying The Open class is growing nicely, and the addition of some new faces has mixed things up nicely. Current Champion Mark McCann started strong using his experience of the machine to take pole position in the first session of the year. Second spot went to Sean Haran in the first outing of his Polaris Pro Xp. The gap between first and second was set at only five tenths of a second so we looked set for a great battle at the front. Paul Severn was the next [...]

Heroes Of Hartlepool Last weekend seen the Polaris British Championship Head North for round five of the 2021 season. This event is always a huge favourite with the paddock due to the sheer volume of real estate available to the track team and this year was no different. Craig and the CG Robinsons team secured a site with 85 acres of prime farmland with lots of natural fold and slopes to make for a challenging track and that exactly what they got.  Lots of fast flowing corners plenty of challenging off camber and one the fastest straights of the year by far. A shortened but just as challenging lap for the Youths and we were good to go. It was race time! Youth Race 1 This year the Youth class has been more competitive than ever and this session was no different. The Championship contenders locked horns immediately with George Hales, Jess Barker and Rhiana Harris all breaking for the front. Jess lead early but then ran wide on a corner allowing Rhiana a gap just big enough to fine her Polaris Ace. Unfortunately, the pass was clean [...]

Northern Ireland Round four of the Championship seen SXS travel across the water for the first event to be held in Northern Ireland. This now completes the four nations and makes the Championship truly British.  A late venue switch made the build up week a challenge but the determination of the team and our hosts the Buller family meant it was always going to be the best event it could ever be. The prep was done, all the big names were travelling so it was race time! Open Class Qualifying This session seemed to go exactly to plan for Championship leader Mark McCann. A strong lap late in the session seen him take pole and put him on the front of the grid for race one. Rookie Martin Hales took advantage of some bad luck for other experts to take second spot followed in by Adrian and Callum Loveridge. A tasty front row for sure. Wayne Harris returned from injury and appeared to be getting the hang of his RS1 taking fourth spot setting a time on par with expert Loveridge. Louis McGuffog was next home setting the [...]

Class of 2021 At last it was finally time to welcome the UKs fastest youngsters to track as the Polaris British Youth Championship arrived at Bromyard Motopark.  Lots of the new faces and a fiercely competitive field as some of the previous champions moved up to ply their trade in the senior classes.  This session would be particularly interesting as it would be the first look at who had made the most progress in the absence of racing.  Track prep was done and it was time to go racing. Qualifying Thankfully this session started slowly with all the youngsters taking their time to get a feel for the venue and master some of the bigger jumps. That said Fred Tarrant and Jack Barker started to post some strong times just three laps in. George Hales and Jessica Barker responded and five laps into the session they had a firm grasp of first and second spots. Fred Tarrant made progress but was unable to break into the top two and settled for third spot. Jack Barker pushed on but was unable to better his lap seven time that [...]

Graduation Day After what was a massively difficult year for everyone it was finally time to go racing again and we couldn’t have a got a better weekend for it. The track prep went exactly to plan, and the weather was fantastic. Add to that a near record turnout and it was go for race day. This year there were lots of new faces across all the classes but many of the paddocks were focused on the young guns moving up from the Youth Class. Could they cut it against the big guns of UK SXS? There was only one-way to find out. Its race time! Open Class Qualifying As many thought would be the case, the experience shown through this session as the top three experts used the space and their driver experience to negate any traffic issues. Mark McCann took the top spot even after having a few laps hampered by back markers. Shaun Jenkinson proved that the naturally aspirated RS1 still has a seat at the open class table, taking the second spot with a difference of just over a second to top man McCann. [...]

BSCC Finale SENIORS 1000 Class

2019-10-25T14:18:21+01:00

The Round That Nearly Wasn’t It really was touch and go whether or not this round was actually going to happen, Poor weather and bad conditions saw a delay put in place and the round compressed to one day to ensure it took place. Lots of hard work and tears from the organisers meant we got there in the end and that is a credit to everyone involved. So, we were set for the showdown that everyone was waiting to see. Let’s do This! 1000 Qualifying The rookies and experts were merged for this weekend to enable everyone to get through in good time. Early on it was apparent that the battle at the front was on as Tom Fletcher and Mark McCann exchanged the lead on every passing lap. This ran all the way to the very last lap where Tom Fletcher nicked pole by under a second from second place McCann. Lewis Fletcher making his first appearance in a while took third spot pushing the other contender Paul Rowlands into fourth, this was a less than ideal start for Paul but it was all still to [...]

The Finale – BYC Round 6

2019-10-23T15:16:53+01:00

The Round That Nearly Wasn’t The SXS Racing finale weekend rolled into Kettering after poor weather hampered everything in the build-up. A cancellation and countless hours by the team saw the Youth Final and BSCC crammed into one day as the weather threatened to wash out the showdown everyone was so looking forward to. Thanks to the efforts of everyone involved we were set for racing in conditions that were as good as could be achieved, giving the stage to the drivers. Its was time to settle this and that’s exactly what happened. Youth Qualifying This session saw all eyes on Lewis Scotney and Mack Priestwood, split by the finest of margins only one would leave the Champion and this session would be the first blow in achieving this. It didn’t disappoint. Mack Priestwood drew first blood with Lewis Scotney hot on his tail but the gap seemed a large one for two drivers so skilled. Pole for race one secured with a two second gap, the advantage it seemed was Macks. However, there are no points for qualifying so the Championship was still very much with Lewis. [...]
