Cadwell is a circuit that requires fast turning and good stability under hard braking. http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_31aug_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_31aug_2011.html#warren Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:49:00 GMT Bike Interceptor Yamaha by Seton made the annual August Bank Holiday trip to the picturesque circuit of Cadwell Park, Lincolnshire, to contest round 9 of the 2011 MCE British Superbike Championship series securing more valuable points (27-29 August). http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_15aug_2011.html#railton http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_15aug_2011.html#railton Tue, 16 Aug 2011 08:37:00 GMT I was looking forward to racing at Brands Hatch GP circuit and hoped the weather would be significantly improved after the very wet Oulton Park race last month. Due to the limited number of days that the GP circuit can be used the organisers had to run the first day on the Indy circuit, which meant we had a 25 minute free practice session to understand how the bike was performing on the same first three corners that make up both circuit layouts. http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_09aug_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_09aug_2011.html#warren Tue, 09 Aug 2011 09:48:00 GMT Sam Warren maintained a top five position after securing his third podium of the season at Round 8 of the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport Championship at Brands Hatch GP Circuit (5-7 August). http://www.weise.co.uk/news/riders_for_health_04_aug_2011.html#riders http://www.weise.co.uk/news/riders_for_health_04_aug_2011.html#riders Fri, 05 Aug 2011 08:05:00 GMT Mothers used to have to walk three hours to get their children vaccinated in rural Lesotho.

Having missed valuable track time at the previous two rounds held at the circuit I wanted to make the most of the available sessions. It would be interesting to see how the changes we made for Snetterton would work around the undulating Oulton Park circuit. http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_19july_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_19july_2011.html#warren Wed, 20 Jul 2011 11:50:00 GMT Sam Warren maintained his top five position after rain stopped play in round seven of the 2011 Fuchs-Silkolene British http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_07july_2011.html#railton http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_07july_2011.html#railton Fri, 08 Jul 2011 11:20:00 GMT After Knockhill the standard engine was removed and replaced with the original engine rebuilt by Tim Radley. Once the engine had been fitted the bike went on the dyno to check for any leaks before Snetterton. Fortunately the bike ran OK and was ready for the 6th round of the championship where it would be put through its paces on the long straights! http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_05july_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_05july_2011.html#warren Tue, 05 Jul 2011 11:08:00 GMT Sam Warren elevated his Bike Interceptor Yamaha by Seton machine into a top three position as the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport championship http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_27june_2011.html#railton http://www.weise.co.uk/news/railton_27june_2011.html#railton Mon, 27 Jun 2011 10:48:00 GMT With the race engine away being re-built after the problems experienced at Croft IN MOTO were able to supply another engine that could be used in the meantime, which meant I would be able to return to action at Knockhill. http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_17june_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_17june_2011.html#warren Thu, 23 Jun 2011 09:00:00 GMT Sam Warren experienced the highs and lows of racing as the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport championship headed north of the border for round five at Knockhill Circuit (17-19 June). http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_31may_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_31may_2011.html#warren Wed, 01 Jun 2011 10:00:00 GMT Sam Warren powered the Bike Interceptor Yamaha by Seton R6 to his debut podium finish in an incident-packed round four of the Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport championship at Thruxton Circuit in Hampshire (30 May). http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_18may_2011.html#warren http://www.weise.co.uk/news/warren_18may_2011.html#warren Wed, 18 May 2011 14:55:00 GMT The technically and physically demanding 2.1-mile Croft circuit in North Yorkshire provided a stiff test for the third round of the 2011 Fuchs-Silkolene British Supersport and Metzeler National Superstock 600 championships this weekend, 13-15 May. http://www.weise.co.uk/news/marshall_06may_2011.html http://www.weise.co.uk/news/marshall_06may_2011.html Fri, 06 May 2011 14:19:00 GMT Oulton Park, just outside Chester is a great favourite with the BSB Teams, riders and spectators alike.
