BXCC Battle Goes Down To The Wire
Paul Rowlands and Neil Lloyd survived a dramatic final weekend of the Motorsport UK British Cross Country Championship (BXCC) to take the title by just one point from Aston Cox and Simon Kerfoot. Walters Arena in Wales was the venue for the final two rounds of the championship and, going into the event, multiple crews were in with a chance of lifting the trophy.
Richard Watson and Paul Hughesheaded the leader board after round four but their victory hopes ended on the first run of round five when clutch problems on their Milner Evoque resulted in a stage maximum.
