Gary Pinchin, 23 September 2009 10:41

By now I’m guessing you’ll have read about the new BSB Evo class that’s going to be introduced next year. Personally, I think it’s the only way forward for superbike racing in the current economic climate – standard engines, a control ecu and superbike chassis – plus a one bike per rider rule. Not only will it slash costs it ...

One rider’s sacking is another rider’s gain and when Karl Harris was shown the door last week, most pundits thought it was only a matter of time before Tommy Hill was confirmed as his replacement at Hydrex Honda. Hill has had no regular job since losing his Honda world ride earlier this year. He subbed for injured Sylvain Guintoli on ...

Seeley relies on spare bike to wrap up title

Gary Pinchin, 04 September 2009 10:01

Alastair Seeley wrapped up the National Superstock title with his ninth win in nine races so far this year. Closest rival in the points Steve Brogan crashed after tagging the rear end of Adam Jenkinson’s Honda going in to the Hairpin and Seeley’s win on the Relentless by TAS Suzuki means he can’t be caught with three races left. Seeley ...
