As well as being the official energy drink of the championship, Battery will also be the title sponsor of the ‘Pro Class’ within the ‘2012 Wulfsport British Masters Motorcross Championship’.

Battery Energy Drink will be available at all rounds of the championship with retail points and promo girls throughout the paddock.

The British Masters team are pleased and excited regarding the tie up with Batterydrink, and are confident it will prove to be beneficial to both parties, and most of all the riders.

The global nature of Batterydrink will no doubt increase the profile of the series, and our association will benefit both parties within the UK and far afield.

Ken is looking forward to the 2012 season with renewed vigour, and is keen to showcase this latest sponsor, along with all our regular sponsors, who make the series what it is.

“There will be some exciting additions and changes to the 2012 season, all for the benefit of our riders, watch this space ” says Ken

The AMCA’s Wulfsport British Masters Motocross Championship which is now in its eleventh year is this year introducing a brand new class. For 2012, the AMCA’s British Masters is to be introducing a 2 Stroke Challenge class which will be run solely for riders competing on 2 Stroke machines. The hugely successful AMCA Masters Series has gone from strength to strength in recent years with the likes of Anderson, MacKenzie and Elderfield going head to head in the Pro classes. This all new 2 Stroke Challenge is expected to be super competitive with the prize fund alone being substantial. With 2 Stroke machines appearing to make a comeback, it is the massive oil giant Putoline who have agreed to back and sponsor the 2 stroke Challenge and add a huge product prize pot. The lubricant giant is already one of the biggest in the UK, and is now offering to give something back to the riders! Putolines engine oils, transmission oils, air filter oils (including biologically degradable oils!), chain sprays, shock absorber oils, brake fluids, fork oils and many other maintenance products offer unrivalled protection. The challenge will be open to 40 riders and consists of six rounds running at some of the best tracks in Britain, including Hawkstone, Foxhills, and Whitby! All registered riders will receive a Putoline goody bag, consisting of a one-litre gear oil and an array of other Putoline goodies. The class results on the day will be split into MX1 and MX2, with overall in each class winning 2stroke oil, gear oil, and chain oil. There are also prizes for second and third overall consisting of more oil products. The overalls at the end of the challenge will win a Putoline supported ride consisting of litres and litres worth of complementarily product.

MICHELIN MASTERS If your’e looking for a tight finish that could well go right down to the final race of the season,then this is the class.After 24 motos completed,incredibly just five points separate leader Jack Jones and Jamie Thompstone with Aiden Wigger and Emerson Jones still in with a mathematical chance of snatching the crown. This should be a thriller so don’t miss it!.                                                                                                                               Riding in the same race as the MX2 pilots,Isle-of-Man based Darren Fowden is still the man to beat in the MX1 group,boasting a 90 point advantage over Tom Davies with Ben Thompson the only other ride in title contention.At Hawkstone,Fowden finished 3^rd overall behind Sam Kirby and Josh Scott,both riders having only their second Masters appearances of the season.

DK OFF-ROAD KAWASAKI MASTERS Battle as raged in the MX2 category of this class for just about the entire campaign,and just like the Michelin group its only a very narrow five points that separate Champions elect Paul Neale and Gareth Padgett.During the last two rounds,fast-starting Neale has won all eight motos and will certainly be ready and capable of bagging another maximum score at Dean Moor.Should the top two suffer a major failure though,3^rd placed Richard Gray could still steal the glory.Another Dean Moor classic in prospect here!!.                 Equally tight is the battle for DK Kawasaki Masters MX1 as just seven points is the advantage leader Chris Neesam holds ahead of Ryan Bruce whilst Dale Brockhurst is just a further 39 points in arrears.So,it’s a three way fight for the crown but who will take home that number 1 plate?.

GSP RACE PRODUCTS AMATEUR MX1 This class as continually produced top class action as the hungry pack of 450F mounted riders attempt to topple the super Daniel Brough aboard his 250cc two-stroke KTM.Going into the final round,Brough still leads the chase 36 points ahead of AMCA MX1 Championship riders Jamie Dobson in 2^nd and Michael Reynolds in 3^rd.Both Dobson and Reynolds are in fine form at present so watch out as this title race is far from decided.

RACEWORLD.COM AMATEUR MX2 Incredibly 36 points is also the gap that separates the top two riders in an exciting MX2 Amateur contest.Ricky Lethaby leads the way from a duo of AMCA Championship riders Aled Bellis and Edward Briscoe.Whilst its looks quite likely that the title will go to either Lethaby or Bellis,Briscoe and 4^th placed Charles Statt aboard his super quick two-stroke TM are sure to still have a big say in its destination.

MOTO-PRO SUSPENSION 85CC Despite a DNF in moto three at Hawkstone,Curtis Blamey is the lad in control of the BW85cc proceedings,holding a 79 point advantage over Rob Holyoake.Blamey should be the favourite for top honours with Loui Harris and Dylan Lewis also in medal contention in this class.Also remarkably suffering a DNF in moto three at Hawkstone,Henry Siddiqui still heads the SW85cc chase 59 points ahead of Bradley Malin with Howard Wainwright in 3^rd.Having already bagged overall wins at Mallory,Whitby and Milton Malsor,Henry will be determined to finish his campaign in style at Dean Moor.

SCOTT ACERBIS MXY2 With the brilliant Dan Thornhill having already wrapped up the MXY2 crown,this class is all about the battle for the remaining medal slots.Indeed this could well prove to be another thriller as just 21 points separate Jay Thomas,Andrew Smart,Adam Darbyshire and Ryan Williams.

WULFSPORT PRO MASTERS Dominating the Pro MX1 action from round two onwards,Brad Anderson after recently again bagging the Maxxis ACU title should wrap up yet another crown in the opening Wulfsport action at Dean Moor. Requiring just 25 points,Brad can then celebrate providing the moto goes to plan whilst Bryan Mackenzie is already ensured of at least the runners-up spot.The remaining medal place in this class looks set to go to either Matthew Moffat or Ashley Wilde.Making it a very successful Masters season for the Maxxis Henderson LPE Kawasaki team, Bryan Mackenzie has already wrapped up the Pro MX2 title.Having his best ride of the series at Hawkstone,New Zealander John Phillips is now up into 3^rd spot in this class,just 9 points behind Scott Probert whilst Matt Moffat is 4^th,just ahead of Hawkstone winner Steven Carke.

So,its time for the talking to stop and the racing to start,may the best man win!!.Many thanks again to our fantastic sponsors and see you all in 2012 for a super Wulfsport British Masters Championship,the series that caters for riders of all abilities and ages!!,Pro,Youth and Amateur!!.
