NMCC hosted the third round of the 2016 SMC
Championships at Long Buckby, a rescheduled date after the original from
March proved too wet to run. This time the weather was considerably drier as
the track once again ran in the reverse direction.
In the Expert class James Russell showed once again
his desire to regain the SMC title. James took the overall win after
some close battles with current Expert Champion Michael McClurg. Going into
the final race they had taken one race each. Michael led from the start of
race three and looked to have the overall sewn up, while James followed in
second. Towards the halfway point however James started to close, gaining
the lead soon after and holding it to the flag.
Tom Grimshaw took overall victory in the Junior A
class, relishing the chance to mix it up with the Expert riders on his
screaming 125. Kristian Hutchings took second both times, leading Tom for
the first 3 laps of race two. Rob Hollis also rode extremely well to clinch
third overall. Guy Marchant proved too good for the Junior B’s as he took
two clear wins from Max Nethaway and Aaron Wills.
Simon Wyse continued to dominate the Premier Class
winning all three legs despite some fast riding from Tony Leishman,
runner-up each time. Cliff Lester took third. Fraser Law won the Elite class
after some good battles with the fast starting Greg Cox. Bruce Garside just
edged out Barry Burbidge for third.
Nigel Miller took yet another win in the Super class,
though Reg Willis was able to capitalise on a goggle malfunction to take the
last race win. Tom Grimshaw dominated the combined U40 and 2 Stroke races
winning all three. Guy Marchant used a string of consistent finishes to put
himself second overall.
With the crowd focussing on last meeting’s runaway
winner of the Workers race, Ian Thompson was unable to recreate his dramatic
victory on this occasion. He does promise to do so next time though.
