BSB – coming to Croft very soon

In a couple of weeks time, the British Superbike Championship and support racers arrive at Croft Circuit. The circuit consistently ranks as one of the riders favourites due to it being very fast and also technical in nature. Croft circuit features one of the slowest corners of all UK circuits which makes bike setup a real challenge and spectators can view the riders hustling their bikes from the banked viewing areas available at two of the best corners.

The weekend promises to be one of the best yet judging by the quality of the races at both Brands Hatch and Oulton Park. Croft ticket sales have been strong so far and the BSB event is one of Croft Circuits highest attended events (it’s always a close run thing between British Touring Cars and the British Super Bikes Championship).

This is now the second year of the Croft Supporters Club, with membership and support increasing month by month. Membership forms can be downloaded directly from this website (click here) or collected from the main Croft Circuit office.

Tickets and details about the Croft BSB weekend can be found by contacting Croft Circuit directly or via their website www.croftcircuit.co.uk

The weather was changeable for free practice and qualifying but thankfully race day was dry and sunny for the tenth round of the MCE British Superbike Championship. The ‘title showdown’ started here in North Yorkshire with the top six riders following the last round at Cadwell Park going into battle over the last seven races of the season for the ultimate crown. Worx Crescent Suzuki’s Tommy Hill is a strong contender for the crown along with HM Plant Honda team mates Ryuichi Kiyonari and Josh Brookes. Joining them in the top six are the Irish Relentless Suzuki by Tas riders Michael Laverty and Alistair Seeley, and Michael Rutter having a superb season on his Ridersmotorcycles.com Ducati. continue reading…
