Dunlop showed its support for the ACU and the R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R Trophy by attending the ACU Awards held at the Park Inn hotel in Northampton on Saturday 31st January.
Phil Plater, Stuart Dozey and Bryn Phillips were amongst the 430 guests who came along to see all the 2008 Champions honoured at the award ceremony. They were also on hand to witness Stanley Gamble, the 2008 GSX-R Trophy Champion and Ross Richards the highest placed under 25-year old, pick up their prizes.
The riders received some impressive silverware as well as a Suzuki GSX-R each; Gamble claimed a GSX-R1000 and Richards a GSX-R600.
Dunlop will continue to support the R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R Trophy again this season and will attend all rounds to supply tyres to the riders.
Dave Luscombe, ACU Business Development Manager said: “We are pleased to have Dunlop on board again for 2009. It is great to keep Dunlop involved in the R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R Trophy. We do appreciate the continued support and look forward to working with Dunlop this season.”
Phil Plater, Dunlop Manager of Motorsport UK said: “It is good to support a grass roots Championship like the R&G Racing Suzuki GSX-R Trophy. Having followed the progress of Stanley Gamble and Ross Richards last season it was great to see them pick up their awards. It was a good night and we at Dunlop are all looking forward to giving our continued support to the Championship in 2009.”
