A revitalized NSW State Titles has been unveiled with a unique new format set to make becoming the NSW Champion a more appealing option for those riders looking to build their racing careers. 6 qualifier events taking place around the state allow racers to earn a ‘Golden Ticket’ to the ‘King of MX’ final being held at Goanna Tracks, Coonabarabran on June long weekend (9th-11th).
Motorcycling NSW CEO, Dave Cooke: “It’s no secret that the NSW State Titles has been in need of a boost, so we went back to the drawing board and developed a completely new concept, which makes it easier for riders of all ages and all levels to be a part of the event, while also allowing them to race as many other club and open race meetings and series as they like without any disadvantage. We really wanted to create something special, and so the King of MX idea was born”.
The Format
Racers need to enter one of the 6 qualifier events (see schedule below) where the top 5 or 6 finishers in each class earn their Golden Ticket to the final. Once a rider has qualified, they can still ride the other qualifier events but they can’t win another Golden Ticket, so that gives even more riders a chance to qualify. At the final, State Title Champions will be decided over 3 motos for each class, and some will also earn a spot in the King of MX feature race.
- Qualifier 1 March 3-4 Sydney Region (Clarence)
- Qualifier 2 March 10-11 South Coast (Nowra)
- Qualifier 3 March 17-18 Hunter (Cessnock)
- Qualifier 4 April 21-22 Riverina (Young)
- Qualifier 5 May 5-6 Central West (Dubbo)
- Qualifier 6 May 12-13 North Coast (Moree)
- FINAL June Long Weekend 9-10-11 Goanna Tracks Coonabarabran
