WELCOME<br />
TO <strong>BLAXHALL</strong><br />
Woodbridge and DMCC would, once again, like to welcome you to the Blaxhall Circuit in Suffolk for Round 5 of the<br />
2022 Revo ACU MXGB British Motocross Championship fuelled by Gulf Race Fuels.<br />
Blaxhall has played host to several British Championship events in the 90's and the early 00’s before becoming a<br />
regular venue of the ACU British Championship since 2015.<br />
For the host club, Woodbridge and DMCC, the return of the event is a testament to the standard of the venue &<br />
their attention to detail, which has seen them named as 'Organiser of the Year' for the past five events.<br />
The club, originally founded in late 1956, started life off as the Rendlesham and District Club. The club’s name<br />
changed from this to Woodbridge DMCC in 1966 when it held its first Scramble at the Blaxhall circuit. The club is<br />
extremely lucky to own this fantastic venue.<br />
Since it’s involvement in the ACU British Championship in 2015, the club has gone from strength to strength and<br />
regularly hosts events for 200 riders. It is one of the top ACU motocross clubs in the country. As a club we are<br />
continually looking to improve our venue and facilities to make everyone’s attendance at Blaxhall a more<br />
enjoyable experience meaning the preparation and planning never stops from year to year.<br />
For the 2022 event the club have once again been busy making changes to the track layout which now sees the<br />
flowing sandy circuit running in reverse for the first time since 2010. This will create some exciting racing for<br />
both riders and spectators.<br />
Obviously today's event would not be possible without the kind support of our event sponsors, including GH<br />
Motorcycles, G & B Finch Ltd, Foxwood Trade and Steve Lumley Planing Ltd, and supporters Ernest Doe.<br />
Woodbridge & DMCC Ltd would like to thank all our sponsors, the hard-working club members and friends of the<br />
club for their countless hours of dedication over the years. We are also very grateful to the local landowners and<br />
neighbours of the circuit for their support of the event.<br />
If you would like to find out more visit the club website at www.woodbridgemcc.co.uk or ‘Like and Follow’ us on<br />
both Facebook and Instagram.<br />
We hope that you have an enjoyable day here at Blaxhall.

B A R R Y M O O R E<br />
My role as team manager is to make sure everyone is happy under the awning, you definitely get better<br />
results from your riders if they are feeling they belong on the team, making sure the race truck is ready<br />
and stocked with everything we could potentially need on a race weekend, Chris helps out massively on<br />
that front<br />
A race weekend consists of leaving work normally<br />
Friday lunchtime depending on where the meeting<br />
is , we then collect Craig on route who is petar’s<br />
mechanic, many stops in motorway service<br />
stations , setting up the awning and hospitality<br />
area for riders and sponsors.<br />
A normal day for me running my business and a<br />
team can be quite stressful especially before the<br />
season starts, organising all the products required<br />
and this season has been extremely challenging.<br />
Riders on my team have to have a desire to go out<br />
and give 100% , that’s what I want from my riders ,<br />
it’s not all about winning but it’s good when it<br />
happens for sure ,<br />
I’m quite fussy who I have on my team because<br />
you need a good feeling under the awning where<br />
we all get on<br />
My background in motocross goes back to<br />
when I was 10 and wanted to race but my<br />
parents couldn’t afford for me to go , so when<br />
I turned 21 I had saved up enough money to<br />
buy my first bike which was a gagiva 125 , I<br />
raced the local southwest amca series before<br />
going ACU and retired from racing at 40 , once<br />
motocross is in your blood it’s hard to leave<br />
the sport.<br />
Since my business Phoenix tools was formed<br />
in 1996 I’ve always supported riders at some<br />
level running with my graphics and have been<br />
running a team at British championship level<br />
for nearly 15 years now , over those years I’ve<br />
had some great riders
THE FUTURE OF CHAMBERS<br />
RACING<br />
With Tim Chambers and Tom Grimshaw<br />
We caught up with Tim Chambers and Tom Grimshaw<br />
from the Chambers Racing team to discuss how the<br />
team works and the future of Chambers Racing.<br />
We spoke to Tim Below.<br />
Can you explain your role as a team manager<br />
during race weekends and regular weekdays?<br />
I organise the equipment, clean the truck, drive<br />
the truck, pay any outstanding invoices. Assess<br />
the riders progress & help them to improve their<br />
race craft whenever possible. I like to raise their<br />
hopes & achieve their ambitions in the sport.<br />
Promoting British riders to be at the top of the<br />
sport is my goal. I also may have a beer & a rest<br />
at the weekend !!<br />
What is your background in motocross? Where did your love from the sport start?<br />
I raced MX from 78-88, helping Ken Hanson, Phil Mercer, Wyse brothers, Peter<br />
Archer, Perry Leask, James Smith. Chris Lillywhite, Mark Hucklebridge, Cristian<br />
Burnham, Wayne Smith, Shaun Simpson George Fountain, And the current riders 10<br />
in all classes. My love for the sport came from riding & racing, then to watch Ken<br />
Hanson wrag a CCM full chat, balls out, no fear, made the hair on my neck bristle. To<br />
then watch, Noycey, John Banks, Vic Eastwood in GPs, Thorpe, Nicoll, Nicholls, Banks,<br />
Wrighty battling the World was so overwhelming, I thought I’d like a piece of that.<br />
What made you start a team?<br />
Watching so many guy’s with talent, who hadn’t got the<br />
means to make it in the sport, just a helping hand.<br />
What do you see for a future in the team?<br />
Depending on how the sport changes, I would love to do a<br />
full GP campaign, however, I work to race, I wish it was<br />
easier to go to the GP’s, but the format is wrong.
Tom is currently sat in fourth in the championship, one point<br />
behind Jamie Carpenter, how does he feel about this?<br />
I’m sure he would rather be in the top spot, or above his<br />
current position, he’s a cool young man, lots of admiration<br />
for all the riders, they put it on the line every week, as does<br />
everyone in the team. The plan is to improve every season &<br />
we are currently achieving that goal, next weekend MX2<br />
French GP, points are the goal.<br />
Tom, how do you feel about your position in the<br />
Championship?<br />
As it stands I’m sitting 4th in the championship which I am<br />
really happy with but I also know there is still a lot of racing<br />
to come so we will keep pushing for better.<br />
Will a race win or podium position be on the cards for Tom<br />
in the coming rounds?<br />
We know this is possible, & I’m positive you will see us on<br />
the box in the very near future.<br />
Same question for you Tom.<br />
A little goal of mine is to get on a British championship<br />
podium so I am gunning for that!<br />
When it comes to race win I know we are a little<br />
of that but definitely if the opportunity is there<br />
I will take it.<br />
Where does tom see his future going<br />
within the team and his racing career?<br />
I know he will contest GP’s,<br />
I’m happy to take him there,<br />
like most Teams we cannot afford the fly away’s,<br />
but If MXGP were to consider a change or even pay the<br />
riders, that would encourage us to attend & compete.<br />
What made you choose Tom to be part of the team?<br />
Young, talented & 100% commitment<br />
from all in the family, he’s now part of a bigger<br />
family who all give 100% every weekend .<br />
