SPONSORED RIDER/DRIVER UPDATE
Pro drifter, Stuart Egdell, continues his partnership with EBC Brakes as he once again carries out another season of Drift France. Following the first 2025 round at Circuit de la Vallée-Sport – where Egdell secured impressive points – he was back for round two at Croix en Ternois recently, which was also a great success.
Mark White is the Operations Manager of the Mission Motorsport charity, and with a 20+ year career in the army himself, White now competes in the Armed Forces Race Challenge championship in his EP3 Honda Civic Type R race car. White recently installed an EBC Brakes Racing Apollo Big Brake Kit to his car ahead of the series’ Donington Park round, where some fantastic driving saw him take home another P1 and a championship lap record.
The Monoposto Race Club has been offering cost-effective single-seater racing in the UK for over 60 years. Chris Levy competes in the championship’s F3B class in his Dallara F397, complete with EBC Brakes’ Greenstuff pads. The most recent round took the series to the iconic Silverstone GP circuit, where Levy achieved a class podium and a PB lap time.
The G&S Racing Kawasaki motorcycle race team is now mid-way through another season of BSB’s British Supersport Championship with two riders: TJ Toms and Jorel Boerboom. With impressive rides and solid results achieved for both riders at Donington Park, the roadshow next headed to Norfolk’s Snetterton Circuit for the latest round where they picked up more positive results.
Motorcycle race outfit, Brook Built Racing, has been competing in the No Limits Racing (NLR) SuperTwins series on a series of Aprilia RS660s, yielding great results by the end of 2024. The latest update comes after a trip to the gruelling Isle of Man TT race, where Michael Russell piloted his Aprilia to a trophy finish, securing fantastic results thanks to some sharp riding on the island.
Martyn Henry is competing in the Pro class of Time Attack UK, in his heavily modified Vauxhall Astra VXR. Following something of a rollercoaster first two rounds of 2025, things settled for Henry at the third round at Kent’s Brands Hatch recently, where his true potential started to shine through.
Motorcycle race outfit, Brook Built Racing, has been competing in the No Limits Racing (NLR) SuperTwins series on a series of Aprilia RS660s, yielding great results by the end of 2024. The team continued the guest racing theme by most recently attending the iconic Oliver’s Mount and its annual Cock o’ The North road race, with riders Russell Brook, Ben Long and Adrian Harrison competing with the outfit for the weekend.
The Yamaha GV Racing outfit currently supports multiple motorcycle racers that are taking part in the Moto2 and Stock600 categories of FIM JuniorGP – the exciting series that spans Italy, Portgual and Spain. Following a spectacular outright 1-2 victory in the 2024 season, the team was back out in force as the 2025 season unfolded, achieving more wins at the most recent round at Motorland Aragón.
After a comfortable win in the 2024 season, Nicole Drought is back competing in the MSVT Trackday Championship for 2025, continuing to run EBC Brakes components in her Civic Type R. A spree of wins in the first half of 2025 put Drought in good stead for the title once again, but she did face a few hurdles at the latest round at Derby’s Donington Park.
