鈥淲hat a way to end the season! G&S Racing Kawasaki riders TJ Toms and Jorel Boerboom completed both races and celebrated the final race with both riders in the points 鈥撎齌J within the top four.

鈥淎fter qualifying in 13th place for the short Sprint race on Saturday, TJ Toms started the 12-lap race from the fourth row and as the lights went out he immediately moved up to 11th on the opening lap. He tucked in behind Carter Brown and followed him through the majority of the race before making a move on the penultimate lap to snatch 10th place. He held his line through the final lap to take 10th at the flag and pick up sufficient points to leapfrog Dean Harrison in the rider standings to eighth position.听

鈥淭here was a dramatic change in the weather for Sunday鈥檚 season finale with rain falling making the track wet and slippery. Full wets was the order of the day, with TJ lining up in the middle of the fourth row. With crashes to riders ahead of him, the safety car was brought out a couple of times during the race which allowed TJ to remain in touch with the leading group and he circulated in 10th position through the first half of the 15-lap race.

“He then began to make his way forward and was in fifth place going into the final lap. Not satisfied with that he made a concerted effort and passed Lee Johnston on the final lap to take a well-deserved fourth place to end the season in a solid eighth place in the rider standings.”

鈥淢eanwhile, Jorel Boerboom came through first qualifying but gave himself a lot of work to do in the Sprint race after completing final qualifying down in 26th place. But he got his head down and made up a place to 25th on the first lap. He was embroiled in a five-rider battle for position and was able to pick off riders through the rest of the 12 laps to cross the finish line in 21st position.听

鈥淪tarting the final race from the eighth row, it was always going to be a struggle to get up into a point-scoring position, but Boerboom was determined to end his season on a high note and worked his way through the midfielders to latch onto the back of the group fighting for 11th place. He picked them off one by one until he got to the front of the group. With the next rider too far ahead to catch, Boerboom took the chequered flag for his best result of the season in 11th place to pick up 10 championship points.”

Team Manager, Tom Fisher: 鈥淭hat was a great result in the final race for both riders. TJ rode well in the first race to 10th and was amazing in the wet final race with fourth. He rode the wheels of the Kawasaki to get up into the top five and thoroughly deserved the fourth-place finish.

鈥淛orel also rode well. He started from way back on row eight and fought his way up to 11th. What a great way to finish his season. I have to thank the whole team for their hard work over this weekend and also our sponsors who have stuck with us throughout the years. This has been our best season by far and we couldn’t have done this without their input. Also thanks go to our supporters, many of whom have been at the track to cheer us on.鈥�

鈥淕&S Racing Kawasaki rider, TJ Toms, rode to a brace of top-10 finishes at a stormy Oulton Park with teammate Jorel Boerboom finishing further down the field in the penultimate round of the 2025 British Supersport Championship.

鈥淲ith Storm Amy disrupting Friday and Saturday鈥檚 track action due to high winds and torrential rain at times, it was not possible to complete qualifying so the grid was formed from results in the free practice sessions where TJ finished in 12th and Jorel 23rd position.

鈥淪tarting the short Sprint race from the third row, TJ Toms was running in 12th place for a while and entered into a battle for position with Zac Corderoy and Harry Truelove, finally completing the 10 lap race in 10th position.

鈥淭he Feature Race on Sunday was reduced to 12 laps because of long delays in the earlier Superbike race with TJ lining up on the third row for the start. He remained in 12th place through the early laps before starting to make his way forward on lap five. He picked off riders every other lap and found himself up in seventh place on lap seven.听听Despite the riders just behind pushing to overtake him he was able to retain his position and crossed the finish line in seventh place 0.7s ahead of Corderoy.

鈥淭hese two strong results retain his ninth place in the rider standings and move him just seven points away from Dean Harrison who holds eighth position.”

鈥淛orel Boerboom had a stronger weekend at Oulton Park. He started the Sprint race from the eighth row of the grid and made up a few places during the 10 laps but although he was right behind another group he ran out of time and had to be content with a 23rd place finish.听

鈥淗e fared much better in the Feature race and although he lost a couple of places at the start he was quick to recover and made good progress, passing riders on nearly every lap until he reached 18th position on the penultimate lap. With the next group too far ahead to make any inroads to he finished the race in 18th place.听

Team Manager, Tom Fisher: 鈥渃onsidering the dreadful weather and all the stoppages, our two riders did very well. TJ rode the wheels off the bike to reach seventh place in the Feature race and was hanging off the back of one of the championship contenders towards the end of the race. Jorel also has made big steps forward this weekend and was only a few places away from a points finish. Thanks go to our loyal sponsors and to everyone who braved the weather to come to the circuit to support us. We look forward to the final round of the series at Brands Hatch and fingers crossed for some better weather!鈥�

鈥淭he two G&S Racing Kawasaki riders, TJ Toms and Jorel Boerboom, headed over to Assen in the Netherlands for round nine of the British Supersport Championship, where both riders completed the two races. TJ Toms added to his points tally to retain his ninth place in the overall rider standings.

鈥淭J Toms completed his qualifying for a fourth-row start to the first race which was held over to Sunday because of the torrential rain on Sunday. It was windy and cold but at least it was dry and TJ was running in 11th place during the first three laps. He ran wide and cut the course on the fourth lap which resulted in him losing three places down to 14th. But he got his head down and began to make up the places again and ended the 10-lap affair in 12th place to pick up four championship points.

鈥淚n the Feature Race, TJ started from row five and entered into a five-way battle for 9th place with all five riders circulating within a second. With three laps to go, TJ eventually caught and passed Lee Johnston and went on to cross the finish line in ninth position and be rewarded with another eight championship points which sees him retain his ninth place in the standings and reduce the deficit to eighth down to 11 points.”

鈥淛orel Boerboom was racing at his home track and was within one place of going through to final qualifying. He started the first race from the middle of the 10th row and made steady progress through the field to complete the race in 23rd place.

鈥淪tarting the feature race from the ninth row, he got a great start and made up eight places on the opening lap to 18th. On lap two he passed another four riders and found himself up into 14th position. He went on to claim 13th place and was on the back of the group fighting for ninth.听But it wasn’t to be and he gradually began to drop back and completed the 16 laps in 21st place.鈥�

Team Manager, Tom Fisher: 鈥淭he weather spoiled the weekend for us at Assen. With the first race postponed until Sunday morning it made for a busy day. The riders adapted well and TJ brought more points home for us and although Jorel was going well in the second race and running in a point scoring position for a few laps he wasn’t able to keep up with the pace of the faster riders. But to his credit he was hanging on the back of the group for quite a while. His family and friends were there to cheer him on and we enjoyed their company for the weekend. Thanks again to our sponsors who give us their support, we really appreciate their input.鈥�

鈥淒espite still recovering from the scaphoid injury picked up in the crash at Cadwell Park, G&S Racing Kawasaki rider TJ Toms rode to a brace of top-eight finishes in round eight of the Quattro Group British Supersport Championship, while Jorel Boerboom suffered a crash in the first race but recovered to finish 23rd in the Feature race on Sunday.听

鈥淎fter qualifying in 11th place, TJ Toms began the Sprint race from the fourth row on Saturday. He got away to a good start and made up places on the opening lap to ninth. He was running on the tail of the leading group and entered into a battle for position with Oliver Barr exchanging seventh position with him over the remainder of the race. He finally made his pass stick on the final lap at Redgate and completed the race in a clear seventh position.听

鈥淭J started the Feature race from the second row on Sunday, but although he got off the line well. he was impeded by another rider who crashed at the first corner and he was pushed back to eighth position to once again become involved in a battle with Oliver Barr. This time he passed him on lap five of 16 and went on to reel in the leading group on lap nine. He made it up to seventh on lap 11 when the rider ahead ran wide. But one lap later was back to eighth right on the back of the top seven and setting lap times quicker than the leader. But unable to make a pass he crossed the finish line in a strong eighth place picking up 10 championship points to add to the 12 scored in the first race which move him up to ninth in the rider standings on 108 points.”

鈥淛orel Boerboom was hampered by a technical issue during free practice and qualifying which subsequently left him down on the 10th row for the start of the sprint race. The team did a great job sorting the problem out in time for the start and Boerboom was riding well, picking up places throughout the 10 laps. But on the final lap he tangled with another rider at Schwantz Curve and crashed out of 21st place, his race over.听

鈥淧laced in the middle of the 10th row for the Feature race Boerboom was 29th on the opening lap but soon began to pick off the riders ahead and by lap 13 of 16 was running in 25th place. On the final lap he gained another two places and crossed the finish line in 23rd place.”

Team Manager, Tom Fisher: 鈥淚t was a weekend of two halves for us. With his wrist feeling a tad tender we didn’t expect TJ to do what he did. He was amazing; his lap times were the same as the leading four riders and he was sticking with them through the first race. He听听would have been mixing it for the podium in the second race but for the first corner mele. He did so well to get back in touch with the leaders and has moved up a place in the听听standings.鈥�

鈥淛orel was at a disadvantage with a poor qualifying but he did make progress until the crash in the first race. then starting from that far back in race two he was never going to get into the top 20 but he persevered and got up to 23rd.听听

鈥淲e go to Assen for the next round, its a more flowing track and will suit our riders. The team is on top of the job now and we are up there in the leading group. We are developing the bikes for the future. We have our eyes on the prize for next year and have some exciting news in the pipeline. Thanks go to our sponsors once again for their continued support plus our supporters who came along to watch this weekend.鈥�

鈥淭he two G&S Kawasaki riders, TJ Toms and Jorel Boerboom, had differing results at Cadwell in round seven of the British Supersport Championship, with Boerboom safely completing both races while TJ Toms recorded a top-10 result in the first race but was unlucky to crash out of the Feature Race on the opening lap.

鈥淭oms was running well in Free Practice, within the top, 10 but was unable to maintain his position during qualifying and ended up on the fifth row for the start of the Sprint race on Sunday.

鈥淗e circulated in 13th place during the first half of the 12-lap affair, before making his charge forward, picking off riders on every other lap to eventually cross the finish line in 10th position.

鈥淭oms started the Feature Race on Bank Holiday Monday from the fourth row and was challenging for position within a group of riders on the opening lap. But as the group approached the hairpin towards the end of the lap, Toms was unlucky to clip the kerb and crash, along with two other riders 鈥� his race over. A trip to the medical centre revealed a suspected broken scaphoid bone in his left wrist.”

鈥淢eanwhile, Jorel Boerboom started the Sprint Race from the head of the seventh row. He didn’t get the best of starts and was circulating in 24th place through the first six laps. He did make up a couple of places in the later laps and crossed the finish line in 22nd position.

鈥淏oerboom was placed on the eighth row for the start of the Feature Race and hadn’t really had a chance to make an impact before the race was stopped for the crash involving his teammate.听

鈥淎t the restart and with the race reduced in length to 12 laps, Boerboom was determined to prove himself and after a steady start he began to pick up places until on lap eight he found himself up into the top 20. With the next group just out of reach, he maintained his position to the chequered flag to finish the race in 19th place.鈥�

Team manager Tom Fisher: 鈥淐adwell is one of those places where it all goes well or things just don’t go to plan for us! This weekend was the latter. TJ was unlucky to clip the kerb and crash. We are hopeful the wrist is not actually broken, he will know more when he goes to his local hospital for further checks. We hope to have him back on the bike for Donington Park in two weeks so he can maintain his 10th place in the championship.听听Jorel is improving with every race and managed to finish inside the top 20 with a 19th place in the Feature race. We just need to concentrate on his qualifying so he starts the race nearer to the front of the field as he has good race pace and could be finishing in a point scoring position.鈥�

鈥�Having never ridden Thruxton before, I knew it would be a challenge to quickly learn the track and get up to speed, but I was excited for it. Unfortunately, I made the weekend even more difficult for myself by breaking my foot at work less than a week before. Thankfully, I managed to get the swelling under control, and by the time free practice rolled around on Friday, I was ready to ride.鈥�

Friday 鈥� FP1

鈥淭his session was all about learning the track and finding my rhythm. I focused on understanding the lines, braking markers, and flow of Thruxton rather than chasing outright pace. By the end of the session, I managed to put in a respectable lap of 1:21.312, giving me a solid foundation to build on.鈥�

Friday 鈥� FP2

鈥淲ith the track feeling more familiar, I pushed harder and concentrated on improving corner speed and braking points. The changes paid off, and I reduced my lap time to 1:20.169, heading into Saturday with growing confidence.鈥�

Saturday 鈥� Qualifying

鈥淚 started the session on a scrubbed rear tyre for the first four laps, knowing how tough Thruxton is on tyres. After that, I came in for a fresh rear and went back out to push for a faster lap. Unfortunately, a quick shifter failure cut the session short, stopping me from pushing as hard as I鈥檇 have liked. I qualified P31 with a best lap of 1:20.253.

鈥淗uge thanks to听Alan Jackson, who stepped in after qualifying to check the bike. He managed to reset a fault that I thought might end my weekend, getting me back out for Race 1 that afternoon.鈥�

Race 1

鈥淪tarting 31st, I got a great launch and made up positions by going around the outside into the first corner. I settled into a strong rhythm, making good overtakes to climb to P22. Unfortunately, a last-corner challenge didn鈥檛 go my way, four bikes into one chicane was never going to work. To avoid a collision, I took to the escape road, cutting the corner. As it was the final lap, I couldn鈥檛 give the place back, and a two-second penalty dropped me to P26. My best lap was a 1:20.146.鈥�

Sunday 鈥� Race 2

鈥淪tarting 30th put me on the inside for Lap 1, so I couldn鈥檛 take advantage of the start like I did in Race 1. Another hot day made tyre choice important, and with budget limits I fitted a fresh rear but had to run a scrubbed front. Not ideal for 15 laps around Thruxton.

鈥淚 ran a solid race and made my way to P24. On Lap 13, I faced a near-identical situation at the chicane as in Race 1, cutting the course to avoid a collision. This time I conceded a place to avoid a penalty, but despite that, I was still handed a two-second penalty, dropping me to P29. My best lap was a 1:19.248.

鈥淒espite the setbacks, I鈥檓 pleased with the progress made over the weekend, especially lowering my lap times and improving my pace on a track I鈥檇 never ridden before. A big thanks to听Ray听for the fitness plan I鈥檝e begun. I鈥檒l be sticking to it to improve my strength and endurance for Round 7 at Cadwell.

鈥淭hank you to everyone who came to support me trackside, and to all my听2025 sponsors听for your support this season. On to Cadwell!鈥�

鈥淭he G&S Racing Kawasaki team with riders TJ Toms and Jorel Boerboom were at a sunny Thruxton Circuit this weekend, where both riders completed the two races in round six of the Quattro Group British Supersport championship, with TJ Toms bringing more championship points back to the team.

鈥淭J completed his qualifying in 10th position and started Saturday鈥檚 Sprint race from the head of row four. He was quick to move up to 11th on lap three and then passed Harry Truelove for 10th two laps later. He then began to reel in the leading group and caught and passed Lee Johnston on lap seven. He continued to make progress and on the final lap was running in eighth position. But as they approached Club on the final lap he was pushed wide and finished the race in 11th position.听

鈥淪unday鈥檚 Feature Race was disrupted by three red flags and the safety car because of numerous crashes. When the final red flag went out on lap seven of the restarted race TJ was running in 10th place and secured six championship points to add to the five he won in the first race. This takes his total haul to 80 placing him tenth in the rider standings.”

鈥淢eanwhile, Jorel Boerboom rode well in both races and qualified for an eighth row start to the Sprint race. He came from 25th on the opening lap and picked off riders one on each lap to complete the race in 19th position. He was not fazed by all the stoppages in the Feature race and moved through from 22nd on the opening lap to 17th when the red flag brought the race to an end. Although not quite in a point scoring position Boerboom is progressing well and finished both races at Thruxton within the top 20.鈥�

Team manager, Tom Fisher: 鈥淭hruxton is the fastest circuit on the calendar and also very hard on tyre wear and despite all the crashes neither rider was fazed by the stoppages and remained focussed to bring the bikes home safely with TJ picking up more points for the team. Thanks to all our sponsors and also our supporters who came to watch this weekend, we appreciate your input as without you we could not be racing at this high level.鈥�
