Big :niceone: to Tony Ashdown and the rest of Huntly Club for a great event.
Conditions where perfect for qualifying Saturday. Morning rain made the track tricky first up on Sunday but dried out into a fantastic surface later on.
Some of the racing during the day was as good as any senior event I've been too - especially in the 9~11 years 65cc Class A between Maximus Purvis (NZ) and Hunter Lawrence (Aus)
More photos too come.

Was a great event. Brooky loved that mud Sunday morning, he was hoping it would continue to rain.
Had mechanical problems on both days so results weren't as good as hoped but its all racing.

Totally agree Tony and the Huntly Club put together an excellent event.
I went down there on the Sunday with my 3 year old daughter and had a great time watching the racing!

There's some talent coming through for sure.

Thanks Phil. As you know it's a steep learning curve but she's getting there :yes:

Yeah I agree, NZ MotoX is looking good for the future especially with kids like Maximus. Another name to remember is Jesse Te Kani. Completely dominated the 7~8 year old 65cc class and only 2secs off the pace of Maximus and Hunter

3 Australians were
Hunter Lawrence (1st Overall 9~11 65cc)
Tyler Darby (8th Overall 9~11 65cc)
Jett Lawrence (3rd Overall 6~8 50cc)

All of the mini track and probably 1000m of the big track including the big table top jump. As I said before Huntly MCC did an awesome job
