Clarkson and Budgen team up for BXCC challenge

Rebecca Clarkson and Claire Budgen will team up for the first time to race in the 2021 Britpart BXCC.

They will use the Warrior Rivet that Clarkson drove to second overall in the Northern Off Road Championship in 2019, with support from Warrior Off Road Racing, Bondcroft ATVs, Suzuki ATV UK, N.J.Lawson Groundworks, Hippo Motor Group and MW & RF Brewsters.

Although it'll be her first time driving in the BXCC, Clarkson is no stranger to the championship having navigated Rick Mann to a win in the Sweet Lamb round in 2019.

"It'll be my first time racing with Claire and I'm really looking forward to it," said Clarkson. "I know she'll shout and swear at me if I don't listen so I'll be obeying her instructions!"

Wilson and Letman set for Polaris BXCC debut

Mike Wilson and Ian Letman will be racing in the BXCC in 2021. After using a production-spec Freelander for several years the crew will be in a Polaris RZR1000X, backed by Lambert's of Lancaster (https://lambertslancaster.co.uk/) and Gibson's of Kendal (https://gibsonsofkendal.com/) with technical support from Gregg Motorsport.

Wilson, from Cumbria, commented: "We bought the car for last season but, other than a quick test and a trials event, we've not had the opportunity to use it so it will be great to finally get racing!"

Britpart BXCC 2021 - hopefully we can go racing!

Organisers of the Britpart BXCC have announced a calendar for the 2021 championship. Originally six events were planned but due to Covid-19 restrictions the first two events will not be happening so the 2021 championship will have four events: Slate Mountain, Sweet Lamb, Kielder and Walters.

Entries go live at 7pm on Sunday 7th March, regulations and entry details can be obtained from http://crosscountryuk.org/competitors/

Britpart BXCC 2020

UPDATE: DUE TO COVID-19 BXCC 2020 HAS BEEN CANCELLED

A quiet few months in motorsport terms for me. I declined covering the Saltire Classic due to the tumbleweed that greeted my images from the event last year so I've done no events since the final BXCC round last year.

It's soon time for BXCC 2020 to start. Once again I'll be doing the photography and media stuff, alongside Special Stage who'll be providing video coverage. 

The BXCC organisers have their own website which I have access to publish event reports on. Last year I duplicated content on here but now that the official site is established I don't see any point doing that. There's also an official BXCC Facebook group.
