2023 SA MX Championship Round 3 Makes A Return To South Coast MX

Filed Under: Motocross, News, SAMX Championship

The 2023 SA Motocross Championship points tables are heating up and the finish line is nearly in site for another year. Round 3 of the 2023 SA MX Championships making a return to South Coast MX Club, this coming 5th and 6th of August. After last holding the Championships back in 2020, the club is gearing up for a fantastic weekend ahead and not one to be missed with 2 full days of racing to entertain the whole family.

A special thanks to our series sponsors, Butler’s Mechanical Service and Great Southern Security who have come on board again for the 2023 SAMX Championship journey. 

Entry List:

Returning for Pro MX 1 after a flying round 2 first-place overall, Brett Metcalfe lines up against the strong competition including both Siegah Ward and Levi McManus, who are both looking for any opportunity to get past the big #24.

A field of 10 MX2 riders have locked in their names to take on the South Coast Motocross circuit and as we know in racing, it could be anyone’s weekend. After a challenging start to the season in round 1 and securing a round 2 win in MX2, Mitchell Norris is gearing up to lock away as many Championship points as possible before the season comes down to the line. 

With the positive continued growth of Females making their mark in the sport of Motocross in SA, 30 of the states best senior and junior talents will take to the track this weekend. For the Butlers Women all Powers class, if round 2 is anything to go by, round 3’s racing is going to come down to the line. Last time out Amy Bartsch took the overall top sport and is back this weekend with sights set for a back to back win. She of course, can’t relax for a second with a strong field of competition chasing her every move including Emma Haylock and Stephanie Cutler.

After a huge trip up to the NT for the 2023 Australian Motocross Championships, Bodhi Austin is ready to extend his 65cc 2stroke 7-u10yrs championship lead for his SAMX 2023 season, after P1 finishes in both Rounds 1 and 2. With a field of over 20 competitors looking to stop his winning streak, can he make it 3 out of 3 for 2023? 

This weekends Junior Motocross field will be the perfect example of the exceptional talent levels coming out of our SA clubs. Over 140 of our fastest youngsters are set to take to the track across the weekends junior classes, not to mention the youngest of our sport, 29 budding 50cc riders will be out throughout the demo and auto classes.

With Championship battles heating up and points leads disappearing, you’re not going to want to miss a second of the action this weekend!!

Mitchell Norris fought hard all weekend in MX 2 to take a well deserved top step finish within extremely fast competition.

PRESS RELEASE – SAMX KICKS OFF FOR A MASSIVE 2023

Filed Under: Motocross, News, SAMX Championship

The dreary weather couldn’t hold off the fast-paced racing action heating up on the track, as SAMX Round 1 kicked off over the weekend of 29th and 30th April 2023. Motocross Riders Association hosted the packed event at the Gillman MX track and boy did they put on a great show. With work well underway for  the upcoming Round 5 of the PROMX on the 28th of April, MRA wanted to ensure this was a perfect preview into the exceptional racing ahead.

From the get-go, entries were strong and in the end, we had the pleasure of seeing 257 riders start their Championship series battle over the weekend with 12 future stars of our sport also, getting out in front of the crowds to ride the 50cc Demo 4 class. With racing for round 1 being this tight, we can only imagine the points battles in store for us ahead. So far we have seen old champions return and go head to head with new points leaders and potential 2023 champions stepping up.

EVENT PREVIEW – SAMX ROUND 1 – MRA KICKS OFF A HUGE 2023 CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

Filed Under: News, SAMX Championship

Only one sleep to go until the 2023 SA MX Championship season kicks off and we couldn’t be more excited. Gillman Motocross track is all prepped and set for a massive 2 days of racing, presented by Motocross Riders Association. The crew at MRA have worked overtime to ensure the track and facilities are up to their usual exceptional level with this weekend being a great preview to Round 5 of the 2023 ProMX, scheduled for the 28th May 2023. 

 

There’s no better show in town this weekend with free entry for spectators to catch all the action.

Also, check out the MRA’s awesome canteen – with hot & cold food and drinks all weekend as well!

 

Entry List

Late Entries have now closed and the entry list has been released!!

2023’s Championship season is off to an exceptionally strong start with 258 competitors from all over Australia, lining up, to give it their all for the top spot and the valuable early lead.

Pro MX 1 see’s 2022 Champion Brett Metcalf, go up against an exceptionally stacked field. Will 2022 SAMX runner up Siegah Ward make 2023 his year to take the title or will one of the interstate competitors take Round 1 Championships win home with them?

 Pro MX 2 has a great mix of South Aussies going up against tough competitors from NSW, VIC, QLD and even WA. After a huge 2023 win and a great off-season, Mitch Norris is looking to continue the success through the 2023 Championship Season. Will he keep it together?

This weekend sees a great lineup of competitors for the Butlers Mechanical Service Women’s All Powers. 2022’s Champion Amy Bartsch and reigning 2023 SignSational SA Women’s Cup winner, has her sights set on continuing the winning run through 2023. Only problem is…there are 14 other women looking for a chance to break the winning streak. 

Joining the action throughout the weekend, we have 12 of the future stars of our sport riding the 50cc Demo 4 – Under 9 years. One definitely not to be missed. 

These combined with a huge field of age classes are making sure 2023’s Round 1 SAMX Championships is bigger and better than ever. We can’t wait!!
