The Parts Canada Superbike Championship Series will hold a pre-season warm up session at Jennings Grand Prix in North Florida, Monday, April 18 and Tuesday, April 19.

Sponsored by Kawasaki, Yamaha and Honda, the sessions will be open at no charge to all Pro racers with eligible equipment for the Parts Canada Pro Superbike Feature class or Hindle Exhaust Pro 600cc Sport Bike class.

In previous years, poor weather and strict testing guidelines have hindered teams’ abilities to prepare for the upcoming season. The Jennings sessions should allow productive set-up time prior to the opening of the 2005 Parts Canada Superbike Championship tour at Shannonville Motorsport Park’s Pro track, May 19-22.

The Jennings venue is a 2 mile, 14 turn circuit dedicated to motorcycle use. Located just south of Florida’s border with Georgia, the venue is just west from major Highway I-75. Information is available at the track’s web site, www.jenningsgp.com. Canadian racers including Pascal Picotte, Steve Crevier, Francis Martin, and Matt McBride have tested at the track during the winter, while Yamaha’s Frank Trombino is a one time class lap record holder at North Florida.

The April 18 and 19 tests will be conducted as per National event standards, with Technical Inspection and full supervision. Although the details have yet to be confirmed, plans include operating the official series Yamaha-backed dbCom timing system throughout the test.

Gates will open at 8:00AM on Monday April 18 for Registration and Tech, with on-track activity slated to start at 10:00, ending at 5:00PM. On Tuesday, sessions begin at 9:00 AM. Track testing will take place rain or shine, although organizing group Professional Motorsports Productions are looking for the sun!
