SMC Rd 2 at Long Buckby with NMCC
Round 2 of the 2014 SMC Championships took place at
Daventry MX track hosted by NMCC. The seen was set for an epic day’s racing,
with track well prepared and bathed in glorious sunshine.
In the Expert Class James Russell continued to
dominate. Three straight wins saw his title defence well on course. Behind
him Mark Boswell and Dale Raynor both continued their return to form after
long injury lay-offs. Mark took second overall with two second places and a
third. Dale finished third overall from Joe Wyse, at the track where his
serious injury took place last year.
Justin Carter took wins in both Junior A races for the
factory Husqvarna team, showing just how competitive an enduro bike can be
in the right hands. Second overall went to John Gill after a fine second
place in the opening race, from Steven Chilvers and Fraser Law in joint
third. In the Junior B class Tom Thierens took a fine overall win, building
on a confidence boosting race win at the previous round. His second race
victory came after a very close battle with Gerard Scott, who lead right up
until the final lap. First race winner Aaron Read finished second overall.
In the Premier Class Tony Leishman was once again the
man to beat. Two wins and a second also put his title defence well underway.
Justin Carter took second overall after finishing not far behind Tony in
each race. Behind them Steve Bottoms came out the best after some close
battles with Fraser Law. In the Elite class Steve Gilbey was able to
capitalise on Richard Wright’s issues in race one to tale overall victory
with three second places. Second overall went to race one winner Colin
Prince, while victory in races two and three was enough to lift Richard
Wright back to third overall.
In the Under 40 class Ben Huckerby won a close fought
battle with Steven Chilvers, with Kyle Creevy in third. Tony Leishman, took
another overall in the two stroke class, with Ben Huckerby second this time
out. Third went to Connor Dickens from James Lewis. Round three takes place
at Toddington on Easter Monday.
