Spectators at Round 5 of the Darley Moor Motor Cycle Road Race Club Championship on 24th July got an extra bonus when the BMW Motorrad British Superbike Team got in some early practice for the end of season Stars at Darley meeting. Although not eligible for Championship points Richard Cooper and Lee Jackson used their BMW Superstock machines in the Peak Cup, whilst Barry Burrell joined them on his Superbike in the Open Solo races. Cooper certainly made his intentions known, after leading from the start he won the first Peak Cup race by over 20 seconds, from Jim Hodson, Jackson, Simon Wright and Richard Wardle, the first 600 home in 5th place.

That though is exactly what happened to the team Ballard Racing BIS crew of Paul Corfield and Ritchie Bleackley.
