Sunday, March 30 at The Wick
It's with heavy hearts that we have to announce the passing of NESC racer and Expert class champion, Cam Thurston. He crashed while at an open practice and passed away on Saturday, he was 25 years old.
Besides being a top rider Cam was a friend to everyone at the track, he always had time to stop and say hello to old friends and new riders who would soon be great friends with him. He was always encouraging his fellow riders if they had a bad moto and was welcome in every pit area at the NESC races. Cam was sincere and humble, loved motocross and all the people in his big extended moto family.
On the track Cam was a hard charging rider other experts could always trust to ride clean next to them, all of his competitors have spoken very highly of him and will miss seeing the number 43 line up for another moto.
In the pits Cam had a great team behind him, always traveling with his dad, Brian, who was an NESC expert back in the 80s and 90s and his long time girlfriend Audrey. Cam's mother, Kristen, and step dad, Rich, would also attend many races to cheer him on.
Off the track Cam worked at General Electric in Lynn, Massachusetts following in his father's footsteps.
When he wasn't working or racing he'd be off on an adventure with Audrey exploring the mountains or the beaches.
Everyone at the NESC sends their thoughts and prayers to Cam's family and friends.
When the details of the services are released we'll have them posted here.
Fall in New England is the best time to go riding and the last MX race of the year at Southwick is really one you don't want to miss. 100% Cash Pro purse, thousands in contingency money, col plaques will all make for a great day of racing.
From the new kids in the 50cc class to pros in the 450 class to vets in the 60+ class plus everyone in between.
One day riders are welcome.
NESC members can signup using the kiosks at signup.
All racers need a transponder to race. We will have some available for rent ($10 rental fee, $10 for a mounting clip and a $300 refundable deposit in cash or credit card with a driver's license).
Once you have a transponder you'll need to fill out a one day form (available at signup).
After you have your one day number you can enter at the kiosk if you've raced with the NESC in the last few years, if you haven't raced with NESC before there will be a line for one day riders.
All riders must have proof of medical insurance.

Effective immediately per order of The Wick 338's insurance company, any minor racing at The Wick 338 must have the 2025 Minor Release signed and notarized by both parents! We know this is a huge inconvenience and we wish we didn't have to enforce it but our hands are tied, we have no choice.
If both parents are present at the track they may sign the form in the presence of a track official who will have to check IDs.
If one parent will not be able to make it to the track they must sign and have the form notarized and then the other parent can bring it with them to the track where they can sign it in front of a track official who will have to check an ID.
There is a box to initial for sole guardians
When filling out the Minor Release enter a date range of March 27 until December 5th to be covered for the year.
We are sorry to have to do this and we thank you so much for your cooperation.
This DOES NOT eliminate the need for at least one of the parents or guardians to be present at sign up for the minor.
If your child will be attending with another adult both parents must sign and have notarized the Guardian Form appointing a legal (over 18) guardian for the day.

Each of the NESC Championship series are designed to reward rider's accomplishments and their support of the NESC points paying events.
At the end of the year a Championship awards program is run to recognize the top riders in each championship class for each series that earn championship points. Riders must do at least 75% of the races in a series in order to qualify for awards.
If you completely miss one day then you accumulate “0” points for that day and “0” are subtracted from your final total.
If you miss no race days, then your lowest score is subtracted from your final total.
If you are disqualified from a class for any reason (whether it is for one moto or both motos), then the total score for that class on that day will not be allowed to be counted as a throwaway day.
Please bring your NESC card, your ID and your insurance card with you to sign-up. We hate to be requiring all this but the insurance companies are getting stricter and stricter with their rules, sorry for the hassle and thank you for understanding and helping out.
The 2025 NESC rulebook is on line now, You can download the pdf version here
