CROFT REVS UP FOR TWO WHEELED ACTION

The 2003 season kicks off in style this weekend at Croft circuit when the opening two rounds of the Derby Phoenix Motor Cycle Club road race championships take place at the North Yorkshire track on Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th March.

The club has attracted a capacity entry for the two day meeting with a host of club regulars set to mix it with a smattering of track specialists in the action which is sure to be fast and furious.

After the success of the 600cc Steel Framed championship last season, the club have introduced a new class for 2003 in the shape of F750 which will cater for the 750cc machines which are these days often outpaced by the more popular 1000cc bikes.

Scotsman Angus Mearns starts as red hot favourite to do much of the winning but one rider he’ll be keeping his eyes on is Northallerton’s Darren Grimston who makes his debut aboard the ex Ian Harrison Yamaha R1.

Practice starts on Saturday at 9:30 a.m. and 12:00 noon on Sunday with racing immediately afterwards on both days.

Adult admission is just £6.00 on Saturday and £12.00 on Sunday with accompanied children under 15 admitted free on both days.
