Surf the Silverstone WSB crowd with new iPhone app

A new free iPhone launching this Friday allows race fans to connect with each other at home and in the crowd as the action unfolds.

Released in time for WSB Silverstone Crowdsurfer connects Twitter users to share the action on the track, the banter in the crowd around them and now the gossip happening between users of the app at the event.

Fans not at the event can join in too, getting a flavour of what it’s like to be there.

If you’re a fan of individual riders or teams you can even follow the tweets regarding your favourite racers and manufacturers.

The app will be available to download free from Apple’s app store by Friday and will be usable for the remaining rounds of the British Superbike Championship, updated in time for the 2011 championships and dates when they are available.
