The cost of sponsorship for this season, as a sole sponsor, will be £45,000 Huge interest in new R1 cup By Gary Pinchin British Superbikes – 29 September 2007 13:25 The new Yamaha R1 Cup scheduled to blast into action next year at British Superbike rounds is attracting huge interest. When the series was launched at Donington Park recently over 150 prospective racers crammed into the Virgin Media hospitality to hear what was on offer. Since then series boss Rob McElnea has had four riders from Australia call to find out how to enter. He’s had interest from all over Europe and plans to take the bike to Milan for the international motorcycle show, as well as the NEC for the show in November. “People know how much success with the R6 Cup and with the R1 Cup taking it to the next level it’s no surprise that it’s fired people’s imagination so much,” said Rob McElnea. The R6 Cup was conceived as a way of fostering young talent and we’ve seen several riders including Tommy Hill, Cal Crutchlow, Billy McConnell and Tom Grant emerge from it to become front runners in the top British championships. Where the R1 Cup differs is that the concept is to give every rider an equal chance of success, pitting experience riders against rookies. All 36 identical R1s will be maintained by Rob McElnea Racing Company to ensure everyone starts equal. The bikes will be stock R1s equipped with racing exhausts, Power Commanders, Ohlins race kitted forks and shocks, braided brake hoses and adjustable rear sets. The bikes will also run slick tyres and each rider will have a tyre allocation per race weekend including slicks and wets, although at this stage, details of the tyre supplier have not been announced. That’s largely due to the fact that there may be a single tyre supplier in British Superbikes and British Supersport next year and, depending on who gets that deal if it happens, obviously may affect all the other classes in the championship. Instead of a season-long campaign, the R1 Cup is split into two separate six-round championships, the aim being to spread the prize fund more widely and give riders who might hit problems early in the year a second bite at the cherry in the second half of the season. There’s also two separate races as a supporting event at the Donington Park MotoGP The total prize fund of £100,000 is designed not just to award winners, but also spread the money among the field. There is no guaranteed ride with the official Yamaha race team like there was with the R6 Cup but the overall champion from the Spring Cup and autumn Cup gets a superbike test ride with the Yamaha team. Total Prize Fund: £100,000 R1 Spring Cup Per Race: 1st £1500, 2nd £1000, 3rd £750, 4th £500, 5th £400, 6th £300, 7th £250, 8th £200, 9th £200, 10th £200. Pole position: £250. Holeshot: £200. Fastest lap: £200. Spring Cup Champion: £5000. MotoGP event 2 races overall 1st £2000, 2nd £1000, 3rd £500. R1 Autumn Cup Per Race: 1st £1500, 2nd £1000, 3rd £750, 4th £500, 5th £400, 6th £300, 7th £250, 8th £200, 9th £200, 10th £200. Pole position: £250. Holeshot: £200. Fastest lap: £200.

Please respond to www.R1cup.co.uk or [email protected] as soon as possible, team staff will be on hand at the NEC Motorcycle show to answer any queries. Thanks for your interest and we are looking forward to working with you in 2008. Regards Rob McElnea ELSMERE BROCHURE 28/11/07 13:13 Page 6 This opportunity is second to none and would be an ideal chance for any company to promote themselves in a high profile manner very quickly The R1 Championship will be one of the preliminary races/ championship races at all the British Super Bike meetings throughout 2008 It is a new championship based on the success of the R6 cup, run in 2006/7 As a potential new sponsor you will benefit by: 1) having your own R1 screened on Eurosport TV, offering you unprecedented advertising 2) TV commentary on any race will call the bike by its sponsor name, not by rider 3) hospitality ticket prices will be guaranteed, giving you scope to entertain your customers, all over the UK, at a high-level televised event watching ‘your’ motorcycle compete! 4) If you are lucky enough to be a company with existing supplier support, then this is potentially an even greater marketing opportunity for all concerned ELSMERE BROCHURE 28/11/07 13:13 Page 7 Please find herewith a brief CV of the rider Rob Elsmere and a DVD of the Champion of Brands competition filmed in September 2007. I am sure it will speak for itself. PROFILE OF ROB ELSMERE AKA ‘RECKLESS ROB’ PENNED BY SPORTS CORRESPONDENT, TERRY HOWE: “From the thousands of competing road racers a high percentage of these are naturally ambitious. Although vacancies at the top level are limited, this needn’t be an obstacle in the way of their long-term aspirations. Producing a CV without footage has always been a problem for the clubman, so on recommendation alone any rival or club member will vouch for Rob Elsmere’s honesty and bravery on the track and his courtesy and business like professionalism off it. For any potential sponsor Rob Elsmere would be a great asset. Of course team membership is a key area for riders to target, and should Rob be offered a position, he is quite capable of stepping into any vacant situation. His contribution would be enormous and his performances on the track could easily give success to a major team sponsor. Rob’s progression into the 10 round MRO Powerbike championships in the last 3 years was long overdue and he got recognition and received more media coverage than he had thus far. The Motorcycle Racing Organisations Powerbike Tour is a natural stepping-stone to the British Superbike championship and many riders have gone straight from MRO to world level bike sport. History suggests that Rob’s racing with the correct club. The British Motorcycle Racing Club and the MRO are of the same and between them have produced more racing legends than any other. The BMCRC, or Bemsee which they are affectionately known, have high hopes for a number of riders and that includes Rob Elsmere. The most recent Bemsee riders to progress to Moto GP were Shane Byrne and Casey Stoner. Both Shane and Rob began racing as novices with Bemsee during the mid nineties, and for some time their results were very comparable. Rob graduated from novice to a national level during 1996, and got his first win with Bemsee the next year and finished in the top four in his class for that season. In 1998 Rob accumulated hundreds of disciplined racing miles when he contested the KRC endurance championship.

Be the first of your friends. 0 Supersonic Racing's Tommy Bridewell had plenty of cause for celebration after securing his spot in the MCE British Superbike Championship Showdown on his BMW S1000-RR. Bridewell finished ninth in race one at Donington Park yesterday before producing the team's best ever result with a stunning fourth in the second race to pave the way for his inclusion as a title fighter in the all-important final three rounds of the series, commencing at Assen in two weeks' time. After starting from the second row in the first race, Bridewell was holding sixth position until the race was red flagged when Alastair Seeley's Tyco Suzuki suffered a major blow-up. After the restart he played it steady to seal some points in ninth, which confirmed his place in the Showdown. With the pressure off, Bridewell pushed harder in race two and was rewarded with a magnificent fourth place finish behind Josh Brookes, Michael Laverty and Tommy Hill.

  • Mc Street 2017 History
    MC STREET 2017 HISTORY HISTORY Ever since the company was founded in 1976, Öhlins has represented the very pinnacle of suspension technology and firmly rooted itself as an intricate part of the motorsport industry, underpinning countless world titles. That very technology has subsequently been adopted not only as the gold standard of aftermarket suspension, but is also by car and motorcycle manufacturers around the world. Back in the 1960’s, Kenth Öhlin was an up-and-coming motocross rider and showed an innate talent for mechanics. He knew how to bring the best out of his material and soon he saw himself engaged in modifying his competitor’s bikes. By the time he started his business he had already designed exhaust pipes, engines and – of course – shock absorbers. Öhlins soon became synonymous with advanced suspension. The products were not only superior in terms of technology, but as Mr. Öhlin was, and is, a very meticulous man the quality was always outstanding. The first world championship was won already in 1978, as Russian Gennady Moiseev took the 250cc title on an Öhlins equipped KTM. Since then, more than another 300 world titles have followed. The success continued in road racing and soon also in the automotive segment, in racing as well as in rally, all adding to the motorsport pedigree. But don’t think that Öhlins was content, not for a minute. The company continued to grow, adding electronically controlled, semi-active suspension to its portfolio under the trademark CES. Today, this technology has revolutionized the car industry and can be found in a wide range of products from premium car manufacturers.
