MINI MOTOCROSS:More than 140 children from all over New Zealand competed for national mini-motocross honours on a dry, fast track at the Wanganui Motorcycle Club's motocross venue at Motorsports Domain.
Two days of sunshine and warmth meant the track had to be frequently watered to keep the dust to a minimum.
Positive
feedback was forthcoming from competitors, families and supporters for the organisation of the event, the venue, the community support and the close proximity of the track to the city.
