It will be coronation day for the Rider and Rookie of the Year as well as national overall and class champions when the Speedworld Circuit, located at the SM Bicutan Grounds, Philippines, hosts the final leg of the NAMSSA Philippine National Supercross Championships on January 5 (Sunday).

Held under the auspices of the National Motorcycle Sports and Safety Association, the final stop of the series is expected to lure elite riders from regional affiliates of NAMSSA clubs from all over the country, including national campaigners, headed by past leg winners Bornok Mangusong, Motocross Rider of the Year Kenneth San Andres, up-and-coming Moy-Moy Flores, Jethrick Marquez and Gabriel “Bilog” Macaso, to name a few, 

“Everyone’s raring to give motocross fans another intense competition,” said Macky Carapiet, the NAMSSA chief, who was also elected as FIM Asia president.

The motocross extravaganza is supported by Foilacar, Karcher, Monark Cat, Shell Advance, Shell V-Power, SM Bicutan, ICTSI, Maynilad, Asia Brewery, KYT, Alpinestar, Partas Bus, YSS, Shakey’s and 4 BROS Racing.

The Speedworld circuit was designed and built under the supervision of NAMSSA, in accordance with the technical and safety standards of the FIM, the world governing body for motorcycle sports, of which the NAMSSA is the sole Philippine member.

“We have to adhere to the high safety and rules’ standards set by the world federation and the Supercross track in Manila meets international homologation standards,” said Carapiet.

The rise of the Philippines’ talents in Asia and the world is a product of the NAMSSA National Sports Development program.

“A NAMSSA motocross event has always been a fan favorite and our final leg is no exception. And so we expect motocross fans to come out in droves to support their sporting heroes on two wheels,” said Carapiet. 

The annual General Assembly of NAMSSA, open exclusively to its members, will also be conducted to discuss future plans and the current state of moto racing and affairs in the country.
