TYRES

Just had a long conversation with Mark from Holbeach Tyres-he is the guy who will be supporting the series as far as tyres goes as he attends ALL New Era races, as well as WSB, BSB, MRO etc etc. Really nice guy and what he doesn't know about tyres and racing isn't worth knowing.
He can supply and fit any make of tyre-however he would recommend Bridgestone BT090's for our series as they are a tyre developed especially for lighter lower powered bikes.

Anyway if you have any questions for him post them here and he will try to help, or contact him direct on:
01406 426489 or 07733 324640.

BT 090's are fantastic tyres I used them on my RS250 I would be more than happy to go with them.

Can we assume that negotiations with a tyre manufacturer have fallen through then??

If you ask me, this looks like a rather round-about way of saying BT 090's are at the top of the control tyre list and the water is being tested....

Without pouring fuel on the fire gents, can we have some sort of definitive ruling on this?

yes, would be good to know what we are on, as lots of people are now starting to test and get used to their bikes.

is the intention to decide once and for all at the AGM ??
