British Motocross Champions Tommy Searle (GTCi Revo Kawasaki) and Conrad Mewse (Crendon Fastrack Honda Racing) treated the full house at the P&J Live Arena, Aberdeen, to a motocross racing masterclass this evening for the third round of the British Arenacross Championship.
Searle, the reigning British MX1 champ, took a start-to-finish victory ahead of MX2 champ Mewse who had battled with Arenacross specialist Jack Brunell until making a pass stick at two thirds race distance. Searle looked comfortable on the challenging track and Mewse on a good pace in second. Brunell, still carrying injury from Belfast, finished a creditable third.
Earlier in the evening, the head-to-head eliminator was won in convincing style by Adam Chatfield, while Irishman Jason Meara held it to the line ahead of Mel Pocock in the Last Chance Qualifier. AJP Geartec Racing Team’s Jayden Ashwell secured the people’s vote to take the last spot on the Main Event start line.
