Last weekend saw the Renmark Motocross track host round two of the South Australian Motocross Championships held under perfect weather conditions.
With the Junior Nationals to be held on the same track later in the year, a lot of interstate competition made the journey across to SA which was very exciting for the three South Australian Yamaha Junior Racing Team (SAYJR) young guns. Coming off round one under a month ago, the boys were all revved up and excited to see how they stacked up against some of the fastest kid in the country.
Taj Gow Smith kicked things off in the 9-11years 85cc class, grabbing the holeshot in moto one and leading until a small mistake seen Taj drop back to 2nd place where he would finish. Taj had great starts in all his moto's and finished with 2-2-2 results for 2nd overall on his YZ85 machine. On his 65 he took 1-2-1 results to take the overall win for the day. His hard work seen him extend his points lead on his fellow SA competitors.
"I‰Ûªm stoked to get the win today on my 65 and have some good battles on my 85. The track was awesome and my bikes were so good plus it was a good chance to have a race on the junior nationals track,‰Û
