SOMETHING DIFFERENT ON 8TH AUGUST |
|
WDAC's last race meeting of the season on August the 8th has an extra
feature this year......a One Day Licence race.
Aimed at familly, friends and anyone else who always fancied motocross
but never made it! If you have not held a competition licence this
season or last, or maybe you are quite steady nowadays this will be a
three race event during the course of a 'normal' meeting. We will even
allow enduro, trials and sidecar competitors (on solo's) on what should
be a great way for Wolverhampton Club to finish the season.
Please no 'Trophy Hunters' although of course we will give awards, the
emphasis is on fun and safety. You can use any suitable machine
providing that it complies with AMCA motocross regulations so you do
not need a brand new bike, in fact some older machines will add some
colour to the event (a bit like the riders faces.
Contact the AMCA for an entry and inclusion into the programe (it's
cheaper) or contact Mike Penn or Malcolm Palmer for an entry on the day
but beware to book in prior to the event as it seems to be quite
popular and we really do not want to turn anyone away on the day. |
2010 GB SIDECAR IMBA 27TH JUNE |
|
A big well done to Wolverhampton MCC for pulling off another successful IMBA and Championship event. The pressure was on this year; soaring temperatures meant that track watering became an endless task, but everyone pulled together and all three blocks of racing were run, whilst many meetings across the country were cancelled.
Thank you to everyone who took part, in particular our overseas Sidecar visitors who thoroughly enjoyed the day, so much so, that there is already a request that the club run the event again next year.
The fireworks display was as spectacular as ever, as were the girls who assisted with the trophy presentations, despite getting a soaking at the end of the day.
None of this is possible without the committment of the club members and their friends and family and Club Chairman Mike Penn, who works tirelessley all year round to ensure Wolverhampton & DAC are constantly raising the bar and running well organised, professional meetings that everyone enjoys and talks about.
Enjoy the pictures, kindly supplied by Vanessa Palmer.

Preparations for 2010 well underway |
|
|
After running five meetings last year, including the Sidecar IMBA and five Championship rounds, Wolverhampton Club members decided that it was time for a total strip down of the Cleobury Mortimer track to maintain the ground for next year whilst the weather was still kind. Another digger has been bought which meant that two machines could re-build the jumps and bring in the soil which was displaced around the Hungry Hill circuit whilst the bulldozer was used to level the ground out. |
|
|
|
While this went on, all of the circuit was broken up to a depth of twelve inches or more and a hired in stone crusher was used to bring the ground into tip-top stone-less condition.
On completion all ground works were re-seeded to protect and settle over winter. Wolverhampton have had a successful season this year and thanks its sponsors, members and helpers who continue to drive the club in its quest for success.
The club has acquired some useful equipment this year including the already mentioned extra digger, a hospitality unit, radios, results monitor, the list goes on.
Members enjoyed a free entry at our last meeting of the season as a token of the Wolverhampton Committee’s thanks.
With the support of our landowner and our hard-working members, we are already planning for a successful 2010, we hope that our efforts continue to please visitors and riders alike. |
