Latest News: Season opener ends in podium for Mackers

Ian Mackman got the 2011 Season off to a blistering, literally, start with a fine 3rd place in the opening Thundersports GP1 race at Mallory Park on Saturday.

Following home the 2009 & 2010 Champions, Crowe & Parker, Ian secured a fine 3rd place despite the rapidly deteriorating rear tyre of his Kemtile Suzuki GSXR 1000. The newly re-laid circuit tarmac seemed to be especially harsh on the Dunlop tyres with no more than a dozen or so laps guaranteed from a brand new tyre.

Races 2 & 3 take place at the Leicestershire track today (Sunday 13th)

Latest: Two more podiums today. Awaiting Ian’s race report on a fantastic start to the season.
