After two days of tough competition at Dirt 3-2-1 – which was proudly sponsored by Pidcock Motorcycles Ltd – Albion Kawasaki's Alex Snow lifted the Off-Road World Pro Class King of Dirt crown with a solid all-round display of riding skills. The two-day event featured four different disciplines – motocross, supercross, endurocross and sprint enduro – and Snowy excelled in three of them but decided to leave the super specialised sport of endurocross well alone and save some energy!

The weekend started with a surprise win for the Totnes-based youngster as he dominated the all-new to Dirt 3-2-1 Sprint Enduro event that saw riders attacking an enduro style special-test circuit against the clock 10 times throughout the day with the overall score being decided by the accumulative total. After setting the fastest time on the first two laps Snow settled down to be consistently quick throughout the day and set a further fastest time on the eighth tour. After 10 laps were complete Alex won by just over 10 seconds ahead of Proppa.Com Honda's James Noble who himself had a similar lead ahead of Matt Moffatt who rounded out the podium on his Danger UK KTM.

With the sprint enduro in the bag Snow and the Pro Class contenders headed to the SX arena for their next race event. After a series of heats, semis and an LCQ the pro class was whittled down to 12 finalists who battled it out in a 20 lap main event.

Snow snatched the holeshot but came under immediate pressure from New York badass Ryan Blizzard on the Meredith Suzuki who moved into the lead on lap two then laid down the fastest lap of the race on the next tour to pull well clear of the pack. PBM Kawasaki's Gordon Crockard meanwhile was working his way though the field and moved into second when Snow briefly stalled his motor which also allowed Lakeland Spa Suzuki rider Jamie Law past as well.

For the next 15 laps Crockard whittled away at Blizzard's lead and by the time the last lap board came out the Ulsterman was all over the American's rear wheel. But despite his best efforts the Crockstar had to be content with second as the Meredith sponsored rider held steady to the flag.
