SPONSORED RIDER/DRIVER UPDATE

Kart racer Marcus Hudson is campaigning in the Super 4 British Championship for the 2026 season. Following positive results in 2025, we caught up with Hudson after the first round of the 2026 season at Fulbeck Kart Circuit, Lincolnshire, where technical issues did little to dampen his optimistic spirits.

Front-running BSB Supersport team, Astro-MAR HIPPO Suzuki, recently took the annual pilgrimage to Florida’s Daytona International Speedway for the 200-mile Daytona 200 endurance race. The trio of Suzuki GSXR-750 bikes all boast 91´«Ã½ Racing’s GPFAX brake pads and X-Series discs up front.

The Clubracer racing outfit has relied on 91´«Ã½ components as it has made its way up the ranks through the MSVR Trackday Championship classes. This all culminated in an outright championship win in 2025 – a fantastic result for the team. Riding off this success, they’ve decided to move onto pastures new for the 2026 season, entering the 750MC Roadsports Championship, where they took home a podium in the opening round.

Dave Barrett is competing in the 2026 Modified Ford Series, piloting his modified Mk4 Ford Fiesta 1.6 Zetec within the Class C category. We caught up with Dave after the first round of the year, held at Cheshire’s Oulton Park recently, where he achieved a maximum points hall with class wins in both races entered.

Pro drifter, Stuart Egdell, continues his partnership with 91´«Ã½ as he once again carries out another season of the Drift France championship. We caught up with Egdell off the back of his debutant 2026 round at Circuit du Val de Vienne, where despite some setbacks, it was a positive insight into the year ahead for the team.

Following a season in NLR’s SuperTwins in 2025, as well as successes on the gruelling Manx Grand Prix and Classic TT races at the iconic Isle of Man mountain course, Russell Brook began his 2026 campaign by entering the NLR 750km Endurance Race at Donington Park Circuit, where they took home a 3rd in class.

British Caterham racer, Carl Jones, is undertaking another season in the top-tier Caterham Seven Championship UK in his 420R-badged machine. Following multiple podiums across 2025, we caught up with Jones fresh off the back of his first 2026 round at Silverstone, where a DNF in Race 1 was pivoted into spectacular victory in the second outing of the weekend, despite starting at the back of the grid.

The British Army Motorcycle Road Race Team (AMRRT) is an exclusive racing club for all Army, RAF and Navy personnel. Formed in 2010, the AMRRT is one of the largest teams in the British Army Motorsports Association. It encompasses two road racing disciplines – sprints and endurance – with 21 full-time and reserve riders, plus support crew for 2026. We caught up with the team off the back of the official BSB testing day at Derbyshire’s Donington Park, where prep for the season seems to be going well.

EBC-Supported Drifter Continues Globe-Spanning Charity Mission

Irish drifter, Andy Howard, is currently completing his epic ‘Drift Across the World’ journey across the globe.

Towards the end of 2025, Howard shipped his BMW 330i Touring over to Australia, with the aim of driving the car back to his homeland of Ireland whilst raising money for the Make-a-Wish foundation in the process.

He’s relying on 91´«Ã½ components for the stopping power on his trusty steed, as he drives, drifts and lives in the car over this huge journey. He’s running Bluestuff pads, USR discs and braided brake lines – a strong and reliable setup that should help him navigate the hugely varying and demanding terrain that lays ahead of him.

We caught up with Andy recently as he’d left Australia and entered Southeast Asia, with spirits high as he navigated his way through Malaysia and Thailand.

We’ve caught up with the Mulletsport outfit off the back of their attendance at Round 1 of the Southern Californian HOTPIT Autofest show – a weekend that threw up many challenges and proved to be a big learning curve for the team.

Retford-based Scott Stone is competing in No Limits Racing’s Pirelli Super Series 1000 Power Trophy on his Yamaha R1, aiming to achieve solid results throughout the year.
