On that occasion Stuart Brown was on his way to his 3rd of his 11 British titles .In 2014 Stuart will once again have Josh Chamberlain in the chair aboard their Cradley supported Zabel WSP. Pre season events have seen them going well and after the Results in the Dutch nationals at Lochem they are going to be the team to beat again.
The chasing pack has plenty of talent ,Richard Jenkins / Dan Chamberlain will be looking to improve on their 2nd place in the series in the previous two seasons,once again they will be on board their GL12 Racing supported Zabel Wsp.
Making a welcome return after injury are Daniel & Joe Millard, racing the Millard Motorhomes KTM WHT.The Frome brothers have made the switch back to 4stroke machinery over the winter & normally go well at Culham ,so should be in the mix at the front of the pack.
Podium places will be hotly contested by the chasing young guns. Brett Wilkinson has teamed up with Steve Kirwin over the winter & sees them switch to Zabel power in their WHT frame supported by Mulitec. Also making the switch is Jack Etheridge / Scott Grahame now aboard the Centrilift Zabel WSP. One team that hasn't made any changes is the hard charging Nick Jarvis / Ryan Humphrey once again they will be aboard a Berkshire Cycles KTM WHT.
Making the long trip from Ireland will be Neil Cambell / Ross Graham , there form at Canada Heights last season could see them improve on their 10th place last season & they go well in sandy conditions.
Like many forms of motocross , Sidecarcross also has 2 female riders competing in the Series. Emma Moulds will be driving her machine with Niki Adair in the sidecar, whilst Faye Barnes will be passenger for Arthur Walton on outfit number 20.
If you've never been to a sidecar event come along next weekend and see the UK's top crews battle it out. Action starts at 9.30 with the first race at 11.00am ( subject to change ). Support races come in the form of the Culham Grand National solo event. Entry is just £5 so why not come and take a look.
