British Sand Ace Championship

The ACU British Sand Masters Championship formerly the SandAce - British Championship is an Auto-Cycle Union motorcycle championship which was initially run and organised by the Guernsey Motor Cycle & Car Club. It was first run in 2006 as the Guernsey SandAce and became the Conder Ferries SandAce - British Championship in 2012.

Without Ferry support the ACU championship status was lost in 2018 for want of sponsor. In 2019, after retrieving International status, members of the Guernsey Motor Cycle & Car Club voted to forego their staging of the championship to concentrate purely on local club meetings featuring motocross bikes, cars and just a few Track Racing bikes.

In 2022, following Covid restrictions, the Cheshire Grasstrack Club took on the responsibility of staging the national championship, the ACU British Sandmasters Championship, on St.Annes Beach, Lytham, Lancashire, on the Fylde coast

Historically the Championship was one of many motor sport events taking place on Guernsey and the Channel Islands as a whole. It took place annually and was run at Vazon Beach on the west coast of the island. Guernsey Sand Racing has been going on since the 1920s. Today the Guernsey Championship is run between April and September and there are two, three four wheeled championships. On Jersey similar local events are staged by the JMC & LCC at St.Ouens Bay.

There are two championship classes. They are up to 500 cc Solo machines and up to 1000 cc Right-hand Sidecars. The Sidecars were included with the introduction of the British Championship.

There is very much an international flavor to the meeting, competitors from Australia, Denmark, France and Germany have all taken part.

The current sponsor is Fylde Council, (Lancs.). Condor Ferries were previous sponsors.
