WITH the prospect of sunny weather this weekend for the first round of the Red Bull Pro Nationals everything is looking good. The iconic Foxhill Moto Parc is groomed and ready for the best motocross talent in the UK to do their thing and get the series off to a cracking start.

From the kids of the Red Bull Elite Youth Cup, to the screaming two-stroke racers of the Fuchs-Silkolene British Two-Stroke Championship, through to the country's top stars in the Red Bull Pro Nationals races themselves there'll be some great racing action.

With a few of the top pros riders like PAR Honda's Brad Anderson carrying injuries into the race it's going to be interesting to see who comes out on top but whatever happens defending Pro champions Carl Nunn (MX1 - MVR-D Suzuki) and Neville Bradshaw (MX2 - Samsung Yamaha) will have to be at their best to hold the others back.

Of course there will also be the Live FMX Tour doing their flippin' crazy antics, the Suzuki MX Try Out' experience, VIP hospitality, the big TV screen, trade stands, plenty of refreshments, some chilled out and pumping music and the dynamic duo of Jack Burnicle and Roger Warren taking you through the action for the whole weekend.

There will also be the opportunity for spectators to do their bit for Sport Relief' over the weekend. After the Saturday race programme the MCF will be laying on a one-mile running course so those who wish to do their bit for charity can do a Sport Relief' mile. Each entrant will be issued with a transponder to register their time and will then be required to pay a minimum of 50 pence per minute they take to complete the run to the Sport Relief cause. Of course if anyone is brave enough to put their rate per minute higher than 50 pence they are more than welcome!

As that will leave plenty gasping for a drink there's a Red Bull Party that night where they can quench their thirst and brag about their race times!

Gates open at 8.30am on both Saturday and Sunday with the on-track action starting at 9am.

The Red Bull Pro Nationals and Foxhill Moto Parc will be heavily signposted from major trunk roads around Swindon and from junction 15 of the M4. Just follow the bright yellow signs.

Admission Prices will be:

One day: Adult 12; Kids under 16 4

Weekend: Adult 20; Kids under 16 6

Camping: 10 per night
