RD GP Championship
Mark Sweet has got the RD GP championship kicked off the ground - and even as a co-ordinator I put my hands up and say I only learnt stuff about this championship the other week - Did you know that Mark has collected over £300 in sponsorship for the championship ?? Do you know who and what stinkwheels are - well read on to find out what's what with this.
This is a championship that runs back to back with the TZR Tour but is for the YPVS350 and RD250/350LC entries on the YPM grid - The last couple of years have seen the numbers grown, the Write off racing boys are back for their 2nd year with ypm's and feel more and more part of the class than ever - Pat Herron 2001 Championship winner is back on a 350YPVS add to that some other entries like Howard Lunn, Peter Wright, Kevin Marshall and Patrick Smock to name a few.
This years sponsors are as follows and although are directly sponsoring this championship - in my mind are backing the whole of the YPM class and deserve a mention for their support - I'll be organising links from a new sponsors section as soon as...
