Two new sponsors have come on-board mid-season and they are warmly welcomed.

Return to racing Following an injury sustained at the Tandragee 100 meeting in Northern Ireland Daley has been very pleased with his recovery back to full race-fitness in recent weeks. He took part in a parade lap at Scarborough's Oliver's Mount during the Barry Sheene Road Race Festival on 15th and 16th June and undertook testing at Teesside Autodrome in early July. The Teesside testing was used primarily as an opportunity to obtain an initial setup on a 2010 Suzuki GSX-R600 machine very generously loaned by Hol-Taj Exports and Team Classic Suzuki. New Suzuki The 2010 GSX-R600 was loaned as an interim measure whilst a new race-tuned and prepared GSX-R600 was being organised to replace the one damaged at Tandragee. The new GSX-R600 has now been received by Daley and he is currently finalising the race preparations, including a dynamometer run and paintwork job. Many thanks indeed go to sponsors Hol-Taj Exports and Team Classic Suzuki for their continued support. 2013 Suzuki GSX-R600 race- prepared and assembled ready for painting and stickering-up www.daleymathisonracing.co.uk │ www.facebook.com/DaleyMathisonRacing │ 0785 333 5991 │ [email protected] 6 North View, Murton, Co. Durham, SR7 9PF Daley Mathison Racing #104 Fuelled by Mercedes-Benz of Teesside 2013 Newsletter 4 Race Meetings Oliver's Mount, Scarborough; Cock o'the North - 20th-21st July Daley was entered in 6 races at the meeting on the Honda CBR1000RR and the 2010 Suzuki GSX-R600. Perhaps not surprisingly there were a few teething problems with mechanical issues on both bikes, but these were sorted out during practice with little lost track time. The weather was very good with just a hint of dampness on the first day, but not enough to cause concerns. Running 2 bikes through practice and racing on both days lead to a hectic schedule for the team but Daley was extremely pleased with the strength in his left hand and with his stamina and race-fitness in general considering the recent enforced lay-off. He was delighted with the results he returned in the races and especially with his 5th place in the main race of the weekend, the Cock o'the North. Race results summary: Race 2 - Junior 600; Heat 2 - 7th Race 4 - Allcomers 175-1300; 1st Leg - 9th Race 6 - Junior 600; 1st leg - 9th Race 10 - Allcomers 175-1300; 2nd Leg - 7th Race 14 - Junior 600; 2nd Leg - 10th Race 17 - "Cock o'the North"; 175-1300 - 5th Armoy Road Races - 26th-27th July Armoy is a small town in County Antrim, Northern Ireland and the races are run on the roads north and east of the town where in the 1970's the famous Armoy Armada used to test their bikes before racing. Joey Dunlop was a member of the 4-man Armada. The Armoy Road Races are now in their 5th year of running and the main event, "The Race of legends", is named in their honour and memory. Having quickly become a very popular meeting, many top international road racers were entered into the 11 races, including Michael and William Dunlop, Guy Martin, Conor Cummins, Jamie Hamilton and Davy Morgan. Daley was fortunate to have 250cc and 125cc 2-stroke Hondas loaned to him by Logan Racing to compete on alongside his own Honda CBR1000RR and Suzuki GSX-R600. Many thanks indeed go to Logan Racing for giving Daley this great opportunity. With a reputation for being well-organised, the meeting was also blessed with good weather, with the exception of a heavy shower towards the end of practice on Friday which caused 4 practice sessions to be run before the races the following day. Four bikes www.daleymathisonracing.co.uk │ www.facebook.com/DaleyMathisonRacing │ 0785 333 5991 │ [email protected] 6 North View, Murton, Co. Durham, SR7 9PF Daley Mathison Racing #104 Fuelled by Mercedes-Benz of Teesside 2013 Newsletter 4 and five races led to a very busy schedule for the whole team over the two days of the meeting. And now back in the home of Real Road Racing, Daley was particularly pleased to be able to get so much track time. Indeed, on several occasions he was off one bike and straight out on another! Especially pleased with his performance on the 2-strokes and in the Race of Legends, Daley was delighted with his results in the very strong fields. In Race 1 on the 125cc Honda Daley lost out on a podium position by less than one tenth of a second! The bikes performed very well but a clutch failure on the Suzuki GSX-R600 caused a DNF in the Supersport race. All-in-all a great meeting with some excellent results. Race results summary: Race 1 - MOTO3 125cc GP Lightweight - 4th Race 3 - Supersport - DNF Race 5 - Open Championship - 12th Race 7 - 250cc - 5th Race 11 - "The Race of Legends" (201cc - 1010cc) - 12th Race Schedule for the remainder of the season: Manx Grand Prix, Isle of Man August 17th-30th o Practice Week August 17th-23rd o Race Week August 24th-30th Gold Cup, Scarborough September 14th-15th Stars at Darley, Darley Moor October 13th Manx Grand Prix Races Daley is entered in the Newcomer’s A and Senior classes at the upcoming Manx Grand Prix Races and will be riding the new Suzuki GSX- R600. In the Newcomer's event he will be riding under number 3, the race number of the late Joey Dunlop. The Manx Grand Prix Festival is recognised as a world-class meeting and in this, it’s 90th anniversary year, it has been rebranded as the “Isle of Man Festival of Motorcycling” which will comprise the Manx Grand Prix Races, the Manx Classic Races, the Manx Two Day Trials and the VMCC Manx Rally (which will itself include the Festival of Jurby). All-in-all it’s a two-week motorcycling extravaganza, of which the road racing is the principal component. Riding in the competitive Manx GP will be a demanding and highly useful experience for Daley and it will be an excellent preparation for entering the TT next year as it is held on the same 37.73 mile Mountain Course. It is hoped to be able to post updates on Daley's progress during the MGP fortnight on the website. www.daleymathisonracing.co.uk │ www.facebook.com/DaleyMathisonRacing │ 0785 333 5991 │ [email protected] 6 North View, Murton, Co. Durham, SR7 9PF Daley Mathison Racing #104 Fuelled by Mercedes-Benz of Teesside 2013 Newsletter 4 The importance of sponsorship Daley is very conscious that the success of his racing is dependent upon the support he receives from all his sponsors. Daley takes every opportunity to advertise and promote his sponsors at race meetings, events, social media, via the website, etc. Without their continued support he couldn't compete and he states his gratitude to them all. Merchandise Daley has begun selling several items of personalised merchandise to raise funds, including T- shirts, mugs, coasters and calendars. In each case, sponsors' logos are prominently displayed in the design. In addition, two A-boards bearing the logos of all sponsors is displayed at all race meetings and functions. Daley also has A4 racing photo posters which he will gladly distribute. If you would like a signed/unsigned copy/copies, please just ask. Website The Daley Mathison Racing website (www.daleymathisonracing.co.uk) is updated very regularly with the latest news, information, reports and results. We also post a selection of photographs and videos from each meeting, which may be of interest and which demonstrate our commitment to providing sponsors with maximum publicity and exposure.

  • We Choose Our Top 10 Most Memorable TT Faces
    The TT’s most memorable faces Who do you think are the most memorable TT racers of all time? Here we pick our top 10, in alphabetical order. If you disagree, let us know your choices by emailing [email protected] Giacomo Agostini Agostini may well lay the claim to being the coolest motorcycle racer of all time. With a brilliant 10 wins on the TT course Ago, as he is known to generations of fans, also won 15 world titles. The famous Ago’s Leap at the bottom of Bray Hill is named after this Italian legend. Geoff Duke The 6 time TT winner and 6 time world champion is without question one of the all time greats. Like Joey Dunlop, Mike Hailwood, Ago, McGuinness and Dave Molyneux (see below), the highly popular Isle of Man-based two-wheeled hero has a spot on the course named after him. Joey Dunlop The quiet man from Ballymoney holds the all-time record for most number of wins at the TT – 26. His death at a race in Estonia in 2000 shocked the world but the family name is still synonymous with the dangerous and thrilling sport of road racing. Mike Hailwood Mike the Bike is not just a TT - but a worldwide legendary motorsport – icon. Winner of 14 TTs, he will be forever remembered for making the greatest comeback ever on the Mountain Course, winning a further 2 races after having been retired from TT racing for several years. Steve Hislop The Flying Haggis, as he was sometimes known, won a fantastic 11 TT races during a career which also saw him win British titles on short circuits.
