Colin McCabe 2009 Superbike Champ

Congratulations go to Colin McCabe winning the 2009 BRCA Superbike class, being chased very closely on many occasions by second place man Roki Read.

Colin ran a pretty much standard KP09e all season, being powered by his MTroniks Genride G2 speedo and small can motor.

SuperStock
Steve Newey finished second in the SuperStock championship, only a few points behind the leader. Excellent result when you consider Steve runs race control for the series, so has plenty to distract him during race weekends.
Well done Steve.

The performance of the new bike is much sharper in the corners, yet more stable and relaxing to drive. It has broken the existing lap record at every circuit at which it has appeared.
