The reigning ACU Academy Cup holder, Tim Hastings,
is looking to race fans to get behind his bid to win the overall
British 125GP Championship in 2009 - and is offering friends and
supporters the chance to get their names on his KRP race bike.
Falkirk-based Team Twister is
hoping that 16-year old Tim's many fans will put their hands in their
pockets to help in funding this year's campaign - and he will carry
those supporters with him for all 12 rounds of this year's
Championship.
As Tim's father Tony explained:
" It's not a totally new idea, but a lot of people picked up on Tim's
great success last season and have wanted to become more involved as
he bids for the 2009 title. In the current economic climate it has
become increasingly difficult to attract larger corporate sponsors,
but the enthusiasm of individual race fans is as strong as ever, and
we know from talking to Tim's supporters that many would like to
become a part of such a successful team."
The team is offering three
sponsor packages aimed at individuals and clubs. A minimum £25
donation will receive a Team Twister T-shirt and a sponsor listing on
Tim's website. In addition, those giving £50 will also get a signed A3
size poster and a direct e-mailing of Tim's race report after every
round - while anyone making a minimum £100 donation will receive all
the above and get their name on the side of Tim's KRP Honda for the
entire season.
Additionally, throughout the
season all contributors will go into a series of 12 prize draws to win
a pair of tickets to each BSB round, where they will be the special
guests of Team Twister.
Tony added: "Tim had an amazing
season last year and we hope to go one step better in 2009, so we're
confident that anyone contributing to Tim's challenge will be
supporting a genuine front runner who is sure to get plenty of TV
coverage. We hope that this opportunity will appeal to both
individuals and bike clubs who want to be actively involved with
racing and are keen to do a little bit more than just watch from the
sidelines.
Tim's future plans will see him
move up onto a four stroke machine, the intention being Supersport
600's and we welcome any personal or corporate sponsors to get
involved now and move forward with an undoubted talent.
