Dylan Woodcock and Elliott Banks-Browne are the latest names in an impressive list of British riders who will be lining up behind the start gate at the 2025 Arenacross World Tour and ACU British championship.
As proven over the last decade of Arenacross in the U.K, both riders are capable of putting in a strong championship run and will want to try and add an Arenacross title to their career accomplishments. The duo will be lining up behind the start gate on Honda CRF450’s as teammates for the FUS Marsh Racing Team in their quest for the titles.
Team owner, Michael Keenan, who has really embraced the Arenacross championship over the recent years and puts a lot of emphasis on it regarding his team’s outlay and effort is happy to be going into the 2025 championships with Dylan and Elliott, saying;
“We are thrilled to be competing in next year’s Arenacross Championship, especially with the additional World Tour along with the official ACU AX Championship. It’s an exciting time for our team, especially with seasoned Arenacross riders like Dylan Woodcock and Elliott Banks-Browne on the team. After finishing second in the individual and team championships in 2024, the FUS Marsh Honda Team may be seen as the underdogs, but we are bringing our game to every round in 2025.”
Dylan Woodcock is also charged and ready to get down to business when the tour starts at the BP Pulse Arena, Birmingham on Saturday 4th January. After a couple of seasons of racing AMA Supercross Dylan returned to Arenacross and bagged podiums in this year’s series but that didn’t satisfy the popular 24-year-old from Essex and he wants more.
“I’m super excited for the Arenacross World Tour next year. I signed a deal with Michael quite early on to race for the FUS Marsh team because I wanted to get really prepared to race and win and I could tell he wanted the same. They’re a good group of guys and are professional and you need that around you if you want to get the job done. I’m going to California to prepare and I’m excited about it, and to see and race all the boys when it starts. I’m confident and I’ll be ready.”
As a seasoned racer of Arenacross, Elliott Banks Browne knows what the tour is all about and is also putting in the work to improve on his sixth-place finish in this year’s championship.
“Next year’s championship is going to be really good judging by the names that have signed up to race and I want to be in the mix” says the former British MX champion. “My preparation is well underway and I’m genuinely looking forward to getting back behind the gate and hanging out with everyone because I enjoy the vibe at AX. This will be my third year with the Michael and FUS Racing Team and I’m happy about that. They do a great job with the bikes and everything else but in a relaxed way and I enjoy racing with them. The CRF450 is a really good bike and I’m feeling confident on it.”
