Thundersport is go at Mallory Park
The inaugural Thundersport GB race meeting will be held on Sunday 16th March at Mallory Park introducing the all new club and championship to the British race going public.
The Thundersport Club was only set up 10-weeks ago and is thrilled to be running its first event. The aim is to bring back non-production based racing whilst trying to develop young riders.
Seven unique classes will make up race day starting with the J&S Aprilia Superteen series, a resurrected championship which was the proving ground for a young James Toseland and Casey Stoner.
The three main Thundersport GP classes will make up the bulk of the racing. GP1 is sports production motorcycles bikes with very few restrictions, GP2 is predominantly a 250 two stroke class up against 600 four strokes encouraging two stroke development. Finally the GP3 class which is made up of 125 two strokes and 250 four strokes.
Just to add to the eclectic mix here is also a Street Fighter class and Sounds of Thunder open class. Series organiser David Stewart said: “We have had a lot of support in the run up to our first meeting and I’m eager to get the ball rolling. I feel as a club we have a lot to offer up and coming riders as we provide a good amount of quality track time which should lead to some exhilarating racing.”
Admission costs £12.00 with free entry for children under the age of 16; parking and paddock access are also free. Tickets can be booked on line at www.mallorypark.co.uk or telephone 01455 842931 and select option 1.
