The first ever Dunlop Masters Superbike Championship official test weekend takes place on Saturday March 23rd and Sunday March 24th.
The event will have a number of purposes in addition to providing track time for competitors.
1. The test weekend will be designed to assist riders in Supersport and Superbike who are new to using Dunlop Tyres to become acquainted with the tyres through technical help and a reduced price offer on purchase of tyres for use at the test weekend.
2. To assist inexperienced riders and those looking to improve their performance through technical support on suspension set-up.
3. To help riders get the most from their machines and themselves through coaching by experience racers.
4. To provide increased early season mileage in a non-competitive environment for less than the cost of a race weekend.
5. The test weekend will be used for media activities surrounding the championship including photography for use on the Masters web site and may include filming of pre season promotional videos.
The weekend is open to all Motorcycle competitors whether they are racing in the Masters or not. All classes will be accommodated and riders can book in for the two days or for a single day.
TYRE OFFER
To encourage riders to swap to Dunlop tyres and to assist Masters Superbike and Supersport competitors to adapt their bikes to the championships control tyres, Dunlop are offering a €50.00 off voucher to all competitors buying tyres at the test weekend. At sign on riders will be given a voucher with their race number and name on it. Once a voucher is redeemed, riders who have purchased tyres may have their tyres checked when leaving the pits to ensure the tyres purchased were for their own use.
TESTING OFFER
The two day test is being made available at a reduced coat to any rider booking in before the end of February.
The cost of the test weekend will be as follows;
Two days booked in advance – €170 (normally €250)
Single Day booked in advance – €100 (normally €125)
Spaces must be booked by the end of February to get the above prices. After the end of February the price will increase and prices on the day, without pre-booking will be as shown in brackets.
