Dunlop will once again be the tire supplier to the Yamaha Champions Riding School (YCRS), entering into the fifth year of support for this school.
The YCRS fleet of 2014 Yamahas will lap on Dunlop’s amazing Q3, the company’s track-day oriented street tire. “We’ve had racers like Dane Westby and Bradley Smith lap on the Q3 and they couldn’t believe the grip and feedback,” YCRS’s Ken Hill says. “These tires are terrific and we are very pleased that Dunlop has increased its support of what we do.”
Dunlop adds, “Dunlop is pleased to continue its relationship with YCRS at their new home at NJMP. YCRS and guest instructors and bring a wealth of knowledge, many years of experience and championships to each of their students. The move to NJMP will greatly increase their ability to reach thousands of riders from all around the northeast and mid-Atlantic regions. YCRS bikes will all be fitted with our latest Q3 high performance street and track day tires, ready for students to put to the test at one of the more exciting and popular circuits in the eastern US.”
