22 maltatoday, WEDNESDAY, 5 APRIL 2017 Sport MOTORSPORTS ON Sunday 9 April 2017 'Assoc- jazzjoni Sport Muturi u Karozzi' will be organizing the Sixth event of the ASMK Pasta Poiatti 2016/2017 Championships. Dur- ing this program the Autocross Cars and Motocross motorcycles will be taking part in the day's program while the Association is changing the day's program of the races. This is taking place so that the spectators who prefer to watch the car or motocross races will be hav- ing shorter intervals between rac- es of the same kind. So, on Sunday 9th April the program will start at 9.00am with Motocross races while the Autocross cars start at noon (12: 00hrs). The day's pro- gram will be coming to the end by watching the "Small Car Demoli- tion" which is expected to start at around 3: 30pm. For this edition of Demolition nearer to Easter 19 cars have regis- tered to participate in this 'car end of life' event. The participating vehicles must not be longer than 4 meters (13 ft) in length. In fact this event is called 'the Demolition of Small Cars' which apart from be- ing shorter in length than those raced in Christmas time, they are also lighter thus marginally safer too and are more readily available to purchase and break for the fun of the race and the honours asso- ciated with the winner and run- ner-up. As is common practice, the drivers will be briefed with the last minute rules, the chance given to exhibit the cars by per- forming 2 exhibition laps prior to start banging each other and be- fore beginning their final journey to the scrap yards where they will be chopped and recycled iron. Meanwhile on Sunday 2nd April 2017 the Association organized the third event of the Champion- ship ASMK Pasta Poiatti Trials Championship. The event was held at the Barriera tal-Qassis of Hondoq ir-Rummien in Qala Go- zo where 9 riders competed while being divided into Novices and another for skilled riders and ex- perience in this field.
