Under less than ideal conditions, the St Lucia Motocross Association concluded its final race of the 2009 season on Sunday.
It was a very muddy race which despite the rain and Carnival fever, brought out some 200 persons to view the Teams—Club “Moon Martinique” and Team Moto X fight it out. The riders went to see who would be the “Carnival Champion” in both classes while battling for points towards the overall 2009 Championship.
Making a comeback to racing was Kevin Elcock. He showed he can still be on top after capturing the number one spot from the reigning 2008 Carnival Champ, Daren Rosemond.
In class-B, last year’s Carnival Champ, Carlan Mitchell, did not regain his title due to an injury sustained while racing , which made for interesting duel between Keran Rosemond, Kalvin Kahain and Olson François. In the end, Keran Rosemond came out on top as the B-class Carnival Champion for 2009.
The St Lucia Motocross Association thanked all supporters as listed below and gave special mention to the Customs Department for making the overall transition of their affiliate Club out of Martinique a smooth one.
The Club will put on its own Sports Awards in December as mandated by the Ministry of Youth & Sports to present to all the 2009 overall Champions. Meanwhile, the Association will be preparing itself to put on the first ever Super moto race in September.
