Auto Cycle Union (ACU) with promoter Octane Junkies and Luton & District Motorcycle club have come together to bring in 2023 the all new ACU British Vet Motocross Championship. Riders will be given the opportunity to battle it out for the Official ACU British Titles. We will be bringing more on the Championship very soon.
Below we have outlined some questions which will be raised on this announcement.
WHAT IS IT?
Two day festival of racing dedicated to veteran (vet) riders of all ages and skill levels. There is a range of age based and skill based race classes to choose from with the bragging rights of being an ACU British Champion up for grabs for the best of the best in each age group. All elements of the event have been designed to suit vet racers, from the track choice and preparation to the off track entertainment. Our focus is on making the most enjoyable and memorable event possible for the vet racers and the spectators that attend.
WHO IS IT FOR?
This race meeting is for anyone over the age of 30 who can race a motocross bike. They have race classes based on age and skill level. Each race class will get its own race and classification. This ensures you are racing against people of a similar age and skill level to yourself, which makes the racing more enjoyable for everyone. The organisers want to encourage all vet dirtbike riders to come have a go so whether you are an expert level racer at the top of your game or someone that hasn’t raced for 20 years then they have a race for you.
