RESULTS AND REPORT – 2022 SA BLU CRU JUNIOR CUP END OF YEAR RECAP BY LUCAS WARREN #68

Filed Under: News, Road Racing, SA Junior Cup

With such an amazing year of Road Racing coming to an end we have seen fairy tale endings and heart breaks. Our 2022 bLU cRU Team athletes have taken everything this year could throw at them in their stride, from fast paced racing to wild unpredictable weather. We caught up with #68 young Lucas Warren to  see how his year went overall…

 

This was my first ever Road Racing Season and I was very lucky to be involved in the bLU cRU SA Junior Cup. I came into the team without having any previous riding or racing experience, I just knew I wanted to do it after watching my Grandad for years racing in the SA Historic Championships. It was always such an incredible experience being in the pits with him and many others, I loved hearing their stories and how excited they were when they came off track. I knew I wanted that feeling too.

 

In December 2021 I was lucky to have the opportunity to ride a couple of 150’s at the  Nuriootpa Go Kart Track run by Levis Day’s Rider Training. A massive thank you to Will Strugnell for his amazing help and support. This prepared me massively for  the January 2022 bLU cRU training camp, which was such an awesome experience. I learnt so much, from how to move my body on the bike to the best way to fuel my body ready for race days. I knew I had so much to learn so worked and trained exceptionally hard to try and keep up with the team.

 

Round 1 – Mt Gambier Motorcycle Club 

This was my first ever race and I was definitely very nervous. Not having any race experience I wasn’t sure how I would go but was very keen to see.

First all the juniors needed to be weighed so the team could make it as fair as possible. I weighed in at 68kg sited up which was I thought was great as this was my race number but unfortunately found wasn’t as great being the heaviest compared to some of my team mates that only weighed 36kg, where no amount of fuel could help with that challenge. Hahaha I even got the nickname “porky” which I had fun with all season.

We had mixed weather conditions all weekend so certainly got a taste of both dry and wet weather riding. I found I improved all weekend with my best qualifying time being 1:36.1. Throughout the course of the weekend I finished 8th, 10th and 8th in my races bringing my lap time down to 135.04.

 

Round 2 – The Bend East Circuit

Going into the Bend I wasn’t feeling too confident as I had crashed a few days earlier whilst getting some practice in prior to the weekend. I struggled to find pace in the first qualifying session with my best time being 2:29 but received some awesome advice and encouragement from some of the senior riders in bLU cRU which really helped. In the second qualifying session my best time was 2:19 but by the end of the weekend I was feeling comfortable and going really well. I finished the round in 8th position but got my time down to 2:12.

 

Round 3 – Go Kart Club Monarto, South Australia 

This was certainly a different round being our first weekend on a go kart track. with it being a smaller track, it was so technical and challenging with lots of sharp corners. On top of that it was a very wet weekend which made for very trying conditions. I really felt all the practice at Nuriootpa and Bolivar go kart tracks really helped and I was feeling confident.

 

Round 4 – Mallala Motorsport Park

Wow what an end to the season – qualifying and race 1 saw us have the background of thunder and lightning in very wet conditions. Races 2,3 and 4 were dry and incredibly exciting. I rode in the middle of the pack all weekend trying hard to overtake the front runners but their pace was spectacular.

 

Looking back over my first ever road racing season with the bLU cRU I finished the junior cup season in 4th place. Unfortunately I didn’t have the opportunity to stand on the podium for the bLU cRU this year but was very consistent in my racing and am exceptionally happy to report I never crashed my bike during the season, giving the team a bit of a break from more mechanical work.

This was such an amazing experience, the amount of support and guidance from so many different people was amazing. The On Track Rider training really set me up to have an amazing year on the bike. It was so great I have already registered for January 2023 to get further training and couching to continue developing my riding. To have this opportunity available for so many juniors here in SA, really is creating a positive future for SA Road Racing and I would love to do it all again.

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank all the amazing sponsors that have made this possible. Without you I would never have had such an amazing introduction into what the road racing family is all about. I really can’t thank you all enough!!

Bring on next year 2023!

Results – Round 4 of 2022 SA Road Race Championships finale

Filed Under: News, Road Racing

The roar of thunder rolled both on and off the track over the weekend for Round 4 of the 2022 SA Rod Race Championships at Mallala. Saturday racing was action packed with plenty of slips and slides giving a perfect insight into how much nail biting action was in store for the weekend ahead.

Saturday morning action was intense until lightning from a storm front resulted in lunch being extended bringing action to a halt with questions about if the afternoon would continue. Thankfully with bikes roaring back into life competition continuing through a damp afternoon till a huge downpour which seemed to be timed perfectly for the conclusion of the final race.

Sunday saw a much drier day, full of bar-to-bar close racing with all riders vying for final season points and the overall crown. The day saw plenty of fairy tale finishes and heartbreaking challenges. Volunteers were kept busy throughout challenging conditions and Recovery was definitely kept on their toes with plenty of bikes and riders taking a mud bath.  We want to extend a huge thank you to everyone involved.

Results for this round of the SA Road Race Championship are below, with other results and the Series Points results available via Computime.

DECLAN CARBERRY, SCRAPING ELBOWS AT MAC PARKS ROUND 3 OF THE 2022 SA ROAD RACE CHAMPS!

Filed Under: News, Road Racing, State Championship

The 2018 Motorcycling SA Rising Star is looking at adding the 2022 SA Supersport 600 Championship to his trophy cabinet as he gears up for the final round on November 12 & 13 at Mallala Motorsport park – but first, here are his thoughts about round 3 at Mac Park over the October Long Weekend!

 

Over the October Long Weekend, I competed in round 3 of the 2022 SA Road Race Championships, and the annual Master of Mac Park event.

Friday was practice.
The track was great, and I had lots of fun trying the Michelin tyres for the first time here. They felt amazing and over the four sessions I was getting quicker and quicker each time pushing through the pain of my foot (which I smashed at work the week before) doing the best that I possibly could with the way I was feeling.  The track temp was great and I got to put a couple good laps down.

Saturday was qualifying and race 1. 
In first qualifying I was feeling good, bike was feeling great. I was in 2nd and feeling good out on track. I was going ok in the 2nd qualifying, but only managed to picked up a little time, so I was still in 2nd place – and that’s where I was going to start race 1 from – but a front row start is still good.

Race 1. I didn’t have the best start. On the second lap the rider in front of me crashed, I almost hit him but just managed to dodged him. Then the race was red flagged. On the restart I had a great start and had a great race.   Tyers felt so good though the whole race pushing them. I finished 2nd

Sunday, three more races and the feature race.
Race 2 I had a great start and was going well had no moments. I tried to ride smart and smooth as much as I could. The bike felt great everything went well finishing in 2nd. Race 3 I had an awesome start, had a great jump and went for it. I didn’t want anything to go wrong and didn’t want to hurt myself so rode to my capabilities which was still quick enough to finish in 2nd. Race 4 I had an alright start. I tried to just ride smooth and smart as I was hurting a little from putting so much pressure on my foot. I came away with 2nd for the weekend and gave me 80 points to help in the championship.

Master of Mac Park feature race

The Master of Mac Park saw me in with all the big boys on the 1000cc’s, and we had a couple of red flags so a-couple restarts. On our 3rd restart and 4 laps taken off we had a great 11 lap race. I started from 4th and finished in 4th.
I had a couple of the boys I know well in front of me on superbikes. They got away from me and all I wanted to do was finish the race where I started and not go backwards. I would have loved to make up a couple places but having 1000’s behind me and the pain in my foot I was proud of myself for doing as well as I did.  My quickest lap time in the feature race of a 1.10.2, and I can’t complain about and couldn’t wipe the smile off my face.

I love spending every minute on my bike, and thanks for your support

RESULTS AND REPORT – 2022 bLU cRU SA JUNIOR CUP ROUND 3

Filed Under: News, Road Racing, SA Junior Cup

Amidst some very touch-and-go weather, Atujara MCC hosted Round 3 of the 2022 bLU cRU SA Junior Cup this weekend at SA at the Go Kart Club of SA in Monarto.

While Rikki Henry (36) took out the round, it wasn’t an easy task with Cooper Pitt (27) and Seth Dellow (34) hot on his heels! Pitt shared the following race report for the weekend :

“Throughout the weekend, we all experienced lots of different types of weather. It rained on and off throughout the whole weekend which made racing much more interesting.

The first day at the track, I had practice and qualifying for the bLU cRU and for the junior 160cc class. We ran wets for about half the day as the track was wet for a while. For the first session of the day, I was riding my bLU cRU bike. In this session I unfortunately crashed because I entered a corner a little fast and lost the front. I was luckily ok, but I could not say the same for the bike – it had a bent handlebar, a bent shifter, and broken fairings. But by the time I got back into the pits, we got working on the bike straight away. With a bit of fiddling and a tape up job, the bike was ready to go again. By the end of the day, I had qualified 3rd for Juniors and bLU cRU with my fastest lap of the day being a 58.1 second lap.

Race day! It was time to get serious. On Sunday morning the track was once again wet, and we were on wets for the first few races. During this day I had 10 races to compete in, so I was just taking it race by race. The first sessions of the day were warm up sessions, then it got straight into racing. The first race of the day was a bLU cRU race. I was quite nervous as I was starting 3rd on the grid and because the track was slippery. During the 2nd lap of the race Rikki unfortunately crashed which put me in the lead. Throughout the race I kept the bike upright and rode smooth, and by the end of the race I came away with not only my first podium but my first win. This part of the day was very emotional. As I crossed the line I burst into tears because this was one of the many things I thought would never happen. The next race I had was a 160cc junior race. I ended coming away from this race with a 2nd place finish. I ended up getting all podium finishes for all the races. I came away with three 1st places, two 2nd places, and five 3rd places. By the end of the day I came 2nd overall for both classes.

I would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported me over the weekend – my parents, Kym Bolto, Allen Bolto, Jill Bolto, Andrew Hiscox, Chris white, Darrin Webb, Korno, Crouch for the online support, Tegan, Jason, Terleah and Dylan Gromball, and Brenton Matters. I would also like to say thank you to all my competitors over the weekend and all my sponsors and bLU cRU sponsors.”
