“Tempest
Triumphs at TonyMoto”
After torrential
rain threatened to make Portsmouth’s meeting at TonyMoto another wash-out,
the sun finally showed up to dry out the soggy track and the rescheduled ninth
round of the Summer series went ahead. Over
150 riders arrived to the popular Winchester circuit to score some valuable
championship points.
Inter Open rider
Gareth Padgett reigned supreme on the technical track with two wins to his
credit and the overall victory. But
Chris Chapman was hot on Padgett’s heels and after following in behind in
the opening motos, he snatched the lead away and took the win in the final
race to finish second overall. A
consistent but determined set of races came courtesy of Kurt Bond, finishing
third in each moto, and third overall on the day.
Keeping Bond in his sights, Jordan Moyle rode steadily and consistently
to finish fourth in all three races to finish in fourth overall.
A battle between a small group of riders followed, both Adam Bravery
and Jack Scarlett involved. Bravery
waited patiently to grab his opportunity to sneak into fifth place in the
final moto and took the overall placing ahead of Scarlett.
Pushing himself hard to compensate for his disastrous first race,
Scarlett battled his way into fifth and sixth to finish in sixth overall.
Three different
riders achieved victor status in the Inter 85 class but Lewis Moyle stayed
ahead of his rivals to take the overall victory.
Suspected bike problems and a fall denied him a straight set of wins,
but two seconds and a last race victory slid him into top spot.
David Roberts took charge of first place in the second moto to award
him second overall. After leading
the way to take the win in race one Billy Hare’s day went from bad to worse,
after crashing in race two, he found himself wedged in the start-gate with the
rest of the pack nearly a lap in front, but a courageous and determined effort
pushed him up to fourth in the remaining races to take third overall.
Brilliant starts rewarded James Rennie with two third placings to take
fourth overall ahead of an ever-improving Oliver Townsend who saved the best
for last, to finish second passed the chequered flag and take fifth overall.
Kieran Gabriele continued his quest for a win, battling to stay in
touch with the leaders, and with a fourth, seventh and sixth finished sixth
overall.
Two riders
dominated the Junior class, with Dylan Hodgkins leading Joshua Coleman around
every turn right to the finish flag. Hodgkins
took all three wins to win the group but Coleman kept him within reach to
finish in second in each race and second overall.
Sam Baggott battled hard with his rivals to stay in touch with the
front-runners and a magnificent third in race two awarded him enough points to
take third overall. An impressive
ride was rewarded with an equally impressive fourth overall for Oliver Evans.
His determination to reach the top awarded him with a brilliant third
place in the last moto. Keeping
one step ahead of Evans in the opening races, Jamie Carpenter chased down the
front runners, keeping his rivals behind him and kept on the pace to take over
fifth overall. An unfortunate
spill in race two denied Jamie Cox a higher placing but with two fourth
positions, a top six placing was guaranteed.
Another duo of
riders kept well ahead of the rest in the Auto class.
David Keet led from start to finish and kept enough distance between
himself and second overall Josh Bunter to take the overall victory.
Bunter’s determination to take the lead kept him in close proximity
to Keet but settled for three second places.
A close scrap between Camlann MacDonald and Harry Wichman was in place
behind the leaders, MacDonald taking the upper hand in the opening motos, but
a last race mishap saw Wichman take third place and third overall.
Never one to give up even after a spill on the track, MacDonald took
fourth place, this two third places helping his cause to stay ahead of his
rivals. Another great day on the
track for Taylor Hammal, finishing in fifth overall, a fourth in the final
race his best result of the day. Charlie
Way rode consistently to snatch sixth overall, keeping an extra bit of energy
in reserve for the final moto to finish in fifth.
With the first
race red-flagged due to Nicky Watts’ disastrous first lap accident leaving
him in the back of the ambulance with a broken leg, the AMX and VMX combined
class were left chomping at the bit on the start for the re-run.
Completely dominating the opening races, Zac Blackwell led from the off
and was soon well ahead of the field to take the first two race wins and the
overall victory. Punching the air
with delight after winning the final moto, Harvey MacDonald fought hard to
keep the other riders behind him, and two additional second places rewarded
his hard work with second overall. Chris
Southcott chopped and changed positions but finished third in race one, fifth
and fourth results handed him third overall.
A determined effort from Shaun Kerley saw him keep in touch with his
fellow KTM rider, swapping positions with Southcott in the last two races, and
with a sixth in race one, fourth overall was awarded.
After a disastrous last round at the track, Ian Tallack was gunning for
a top spot and the re-run of the first race saw him stamp his mark on fourth
spot, but race two spelled disaster yet again as the bike failed to start on
the start straight. The red mist
appeared and he fought his way through to 12th.
On a mission for a good last race, Tallack went head-to-head with
Blackwell but pipped him right on the line to take second, leaving him in
fifth overall. An exciting
performance, as ever, came courtesy of George Clarke with his unique style
rewarding him with sixth overall. A
disastrous 11th in race one spurred him on to better things, and a
third in race two added to his sixth in race three kept him well ahead of his
fellow competitors.
Another group
completely dominated by two riders saw Seniors Jamie Tempest and Scott
Elderfield leading the way. Tempest
led the first from the start to take the race win, took the win away from
Elderfield in the second, and a second in the final race awarded him the
victory. Second overall
Scott did the reverse by following Tempest home in the first, to lead then
finish second in the second, then led from start to finish in the final moto
to win. A set of improved race
results through the day and some impressive riding rewarded Oliver Rusby with
third overall, a fine third in the final race rewarding him with a deserved
position. A return to club level
for Daniel Latham saw an impressive performance awarding him fourth overall,
two thirds achieved in his opening races.
Brilliant starts for Josh Scott continued to give him the head start
over his rivals, and with a magnificent fourth in the final moto, Scott was
awarded with fifth overall. An
unfortunate race two left Harry Seymour further down the field than usual, but
his fourth and fifth placings in the remaining motos were compensation and
sixth overall was an extra birthday treat for the birthday boy!
