Langrish Club & Foxhill - History
24th March, 2022

Hosted by the Langrish Club, the Revo ACU British Motocross Championship Fuelled by Gulf Race Fuels, once again heads back to Foxhill MX Track for the 2022 season on Sunday 17th April.

The track first hosted the Official ACU British Championship back in 2019. After two unfortunate attempts due to weather conditions, the event in 2019 was a huge success that brought in a huge crowd. Being so successful in 2019 the British Championship returned in 2021 after a season out due to Covid-19.

The event in 2021 was again hugely successful, which attracted a massive crowd with spectacular racing from all classes that attended.

This year we will see the addition of the SW85 class tackle the highland track along with the BW85, 125cc, 250cc, MX2 and MX1 class return for the 2022 season.

In 2021 Shaun Simpson contended for the MX1 class and although taking his first race win of the season he was unsuccessful outridden by Harri Kullas who was crowned as the MX1 champion of Foxhill. Steven Clarke invaded the MX2 class winning both the Expert and MX2 championship with a total score of 45 points over the round.

Despite hosting one of the best British motocross tracks in the country, Langrish Club has not always raced here. Before Foxhill, the club raced at the memorable Manor Farm track, home to the Ken Hall trophy and Ken Hall International after they were handed the track from Waterlooville club in 1999. It was the intentions of Langrish club to take Ken Hall International to its 50th birthday. The event was then retired in 2016 and with that, Langrish Club took a one year break before moving down to Foxhill after the Manor Farm track was sold.

Since Langrish Club took over the track, Paul Cook and Ron Field the track builders at Foxhill added a new section at the entrance to the valley, re-designed the finish area, repositioned the start and added two more turns before the valley section and a lake was built to hold water to keep the track in its best condition. The most changes made to the track since 2008 when the amenity was further developed and improved with the eventual aim to provide the best racing facility

Foxhill Moto Park although currently managed by the Langrish Club, has been a major venue in the British motocross industry since 1983. During which the venue has hosted events for every level of the sport from youth riders and armatures through to the professional and MXGP riders, like Stephan Everts who competed at the round in 2021.
