Many thanks to the AMCC Buckets who welcomed us to join them on May 1 on the tricky HD Club Circuit to enable our third and final round for 2022.

Well, in the midst of a chronic pandemic outbreak on March 6 at Hampton Downs, Round two of our 11th season was held. I can honestly say this was THE most epic day of Cup racing I can remember.

An unprecedented 313 days between Cup races has tested the resolve of us all. Five aborted attempts to get our 11th season started in 2021 was extremely frustrating. But we are finally underway and what a day it was. The weather was a pleasant 26 degrees, overcast at times and little wind. A record 44 Cup entries were making up a huge 131 total entry list for the first round of the AMCC Club Championships.

Well, we finally got to officially launch the 11th season of the Cup yesterday at Grind On Cafe.

I have just been advised by the management of Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park that our event on December 18th must be cancelled.

Hey Cup Fans, some very good news!

I can now give you confirmation we will be racing after all, with round 1 of the Cup at Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park on December 18th.

A new and welcome sponsor for our 2021/22 season is Dave Hewer, owner of Kiwibike Insurance based in New Plymouth.

We are excited to confirm the running of the Carl Cox Motorsport Cup for the 2021-22 season, our 11th year. We are very privileged to have the support again from Carl who is back for his sixth year as our naming rights sponsor.

2020/2021 - Final points tally

With the cancellation of Motofest I proposed to MNZ to include the Cup as a support class at the final NZSBK Round at Taupo. When Rod Price called me a few days out from the event saying they would like to have us there it was great news but set off the scramble to get as many Cup Racers there as possible.

We had a total of 30 entries and we did miss a few regulars who we hope will be back at Motofest. After lots of track time on Friday afternoon and more official practice Saturday morning we were all set for qualy. Pole times were set by Benny Cook on the 250’s and making a first time Cup appearance Luca Durning on the MTF Finance Barrys Point Road Ninja 400 on a fast and warming track. Race 1

Carl Cox shares his New Year message and looks forward to more motorsport next year.
