Sunday 3rd September will see the Woodbridge DMCC host the fifth round of the 2023 Stebbings Car Superstore and PP Sports Insurance ACU Eastern Motocross Championship at Blaxhall with a line-up of 160 Expert and Junior riders competing in a bumper 12-race programme.
The meeting sees the riders enter the second half of the Championship with the Expert Championship featuring several Expert riders battling it out for valuable championship points.
Luke Parker currently leads the Expert Championship by 26 points ahead of Shaun Southgate and will be trying to maintain his points lead after being off the bike for several weeks due to a knee injury. Southgate has recently found some strong form and took a race win at Blaxhall at the last event and will be looking for a repeat. Sam Nunn currently sits third in the championship but is unable to compete today along with Callum Mitchell. Therefore, Luke Benstead will be hoping to improve on sixth in the championship, while Max Broadbelt the double race winner from the previous meeting at Blaxhall will be hoping to do the same again when the gate drops.
The top Junior Championship riders will be competing alongside the Experts in the Premier class. Charlie Nudds currently leads the Championship standings ahead of Joe Hall by just 9 points, so there is sure to be plenty of close racing between the pair, with Kayden Smith just a further 3 points behind in third. Connor Bunkle currently sits fourth in the standing ahead of Shane Lock in fifth.
With 140 Junior riders competing alongside the Experts and in the Support classes there is sure to be plenty of action in all the 12 races during the day.
