All Action Year at Norwich Viking, Lyng

Tuesday February 25, 2014 at 9:22am
Norwich Viking MCC, scoop the jackpot, with four championship events. The NVMCC club are set for an extremely eventful and busy 2014.

  On 6th April we play host to Round 2 of the Maxxis British Motocross Championship. This will without doubt be the premier event of our 2014 calendar.

  With MXGB saying, that they would consider 2014 possibly, to be the most competitive and open that the MX1 and MX2 class have been for many years, it promises much. There are no less than four previous champions in the MX1 line up - Simpson, Whatley, Anderson and last year's MX2 champion, Elliott Banks-Browne who has elected to go up to the elite class. Add to this the presence of Jake Nicholls, Luke Benstead, Graeme Irwin, Luke Hawkins, Shane Carless, Nathan Parker and you have a recipe for some very serious racing. And as if this is not enough, we hope that Norwich Viking star Carl Nunn will again accept a wild card entry and, if so, it will be interesting to see if he can repeat or better his 2013 performance finishing 7th overall in the elite class despite only being a “part-time” rider these days. Couple that with the challenges of the Cadders Hill circuit and it doesn’t get any better.

  In the MX2 class look out for Steven Lenoir on the new Husqvarna, Matiss Karro, Mel Pocock, Bryan MacKenzie and Neville Bradshaw. Also in the running will be Jason Dougan, Martin Barr, James Cottrell, Lewis Tombs, Adam Sterry, Jordan Booker, Ben Watson and Aaron Pipon who finished runner up to Carl Nunn in last year’s Eastern Centre Championship.  Also,how will the unknown Ryo Sato fare after finishing fourth in the 2013 Japanese Championship?

 

Sunday 4th May sees NVMCC playing host to the 3rd Round of the Eastern Centre Motocross Championship, which will be run over the full GP length circuit. This was very well received last year by the riders and we are pleased to be able repeat it again this year.

  Following this at our meeting on June 29th we will be hosting the ACU British Masters Quad championship. This is a well-established championship, aimed at the over 35yrs age, and reputedly one of the best attended of all the quad racing. It is some years since the quads raced at Cadders Hill, and on that previous occasion racing was fast and furious.  The quads will be supported by the NGR Over 30’s and two all-comers support groups.

July 27th sees us playing host to a round of the Maxxis British Sidecar Championship. This will provide the top outfits with the opportunity to overcome the physical challenges of the Cadders Hill circuit and to Cadders Hill itself. In addition to the sidecars we will be featuring a round of the NGR Over 30 Championship + two Open Support Classes.

And finally in October, on the 19th, we will be repeating the very successful Motocross Practice Day. Does it get any better?
