ASBK 2015 plans announced
Motorcycling Australia (MA) is pleased to announce plans for the 2015 Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK).
The pinnacle event of Australian Road Racing is undergoing some pivotal changes for 2015. The Australian Championship has a strong history of producing competitive riders and exciting competition in Australia’s domestic Road Racing scene and this past success will be the foundation MA will build on for future years.
The ASBK Championship will be centrally managed by MA and incorporate 4-5 Rounds in multiple states across the country. MA plans to include South Australia in 2016 with options in Tasmania and Northern Territory also being considered beyond 2015.
MA will co-promote each round with a club in each of the states that the Championship will visit.
Racesafe will continue to provide World Class medical care at the ASBK, ensuring the level of competitor safety and care at the event continues to be the very best available.
The 2015 ASBK will kick-off at the World Superbike Championship at Phillip Island 20-22 February for limited classes.
Classes and rules will be confirmed in the coming weeks in addition to announcements with further championship details.

Well I guess it will succeed/fail on how much we get behind it and support it. I can't get enough local racing and who knows I may even enter the 9R. Could be in with a chance of making the podium if all the big boys go play with Terry.

I'll always go and watch bike racing, but usually I need to know the price and what's on and where. I think the last round here run by thi sbyunch failed on at least two out of three. Last year when I went you couldn't find price or tickets in advance so you make the trek, turn up at the gate and they slug you $90 for the family. Maybe the ego's at MA need to bury the hatchet and get a unified championship - Australia ian't big enough to support 2. Look at what happened to Indy racing in the USA when they tried to run two championships with a market that size - nearly killed it. Back together going gang busters. Blah blah blah - now I'm boring myself.
