Mclernon wins the fight at Fat Cat for the ACU British Quadcross Championship Round 2

The NETT MX club hosted the second round of the ACU British Quad championships of 2021 at Fatcat moto parc near Doncaster.

It was consistency that won through this week, with Mark McLernon taking the overall win despite not winning any of the races but he did put up a great fight, with three brilliant races on the sandy Fatcat track.

Race one got underway with a holeshot for current championship leader Dafydd Davies. Within lap one Mark McLernon took the lead with Harry Walker slotting in behind, and the battle was on. Walker worked hard to close the gap and blasting into the lead toward the end of the race, McLernon held second with Davies third. Behind Dean Dillon took a great fourth just ahead of Oli Sansom.

In race two Harry Walker took the holeshot leaving nothing to chance, he held the lead until he seemed to slow at the halfway point and Oli Sansom moved ahead with Mark McLernon second, Walker recovered well to take third. Dafydd Davies held a close fourth with Murray Graham blasting past Dean Dillon on the final few laps to take fifth.

By the final quad race of the day the track was rough and made for a difficult race, Dafydd Davies took the holeshot again but had problems on lap one and dropped back. Harry Walker held the lead looking like his second win of the day, but it was not to be, with the chequered flag in sight the bike expired on the final lap. Oli Sansom had fought past Mark McLernon a few laps earlier and now found himself the new leader, much to the delight of his supporters who cheered him over the line. McLernon held second with Davies recovering well to take third with Dean Dillon close behind.

This puts Dafydd Davies and Mark McLernon both on 108 points with Oli Sansom only a few points behind on 93. Despite a few issues Harry Walker still holds fourth with 78 points.
