LATEST EBC NEWS
EBC Brakes Attends Gravity Show 2024
The EBC Brakes UK team recently spent two days at Birmingham’s NEC exhibition centre for the 2024 instalment of the highly anticipated Gravity Show.
This modified car event has been growing year-on-year for the past decade, now taking the form of a huge indoor show that attracts thousands of automotive enthusiasts during its two days of running.
2024 marked the first year that EBC hosted a trade stand at Gravity Show, and it certainly started things off with a bang, taking the form of a five-car display with an eclectic mix of EBC-equipped vehicles present.
There were also an impressive number of EBC-clad machines around the rest of the vast show, reflecting the firm’s prominence within the aftermarket car industry – especially with its EBC Brakes Racing line of upgraded components.
SPONSORED DRIVER/RIDER UPDATES
– Semprini Racing have continued to dominate across the UK in their EP3 Honda Civic Type R race car. Results have been consistent, with two podiums in three Trackday Trophy races and class podiums in the three Supersport races completed. Going into the second half of the season with races coming up at Snetterton again, Brands Hatch twice and Cadwell Park, the team are hoping to keep their run of podium positions going.
– BSB Superteen racer, Greg Marshall, continued his successful 2024 campaign with back-to-back weekends at Snetterton and Donington Park circuits, where his confidence was clearly building as some impressive results were achieved.
– G&S Racing Kawasaki is assisting three riders entering BSB’s British Supersport Championship throughout 2024. The latest round of the season took the outfit to Kent’s Brands Hatch, where the team were faced with multiple issues across the weekend to give them a challenging few days in paddock and on track.
– Phoenix Race Support-backed bike racer, Paul Charman, is currently competing in the fiercely-fought No Limits Racing series, and the latest round took the team up to Croft Circuit for a Pirelli Super Series 1000 race, where Charman continued showing his talent across the weekend, even with some bad luck thrown into the mix here and there.
– Motorcycle racer Russell Brook, from Brook Built Racing, is currently competing in the 2024 No Limits Racing (NLR) race series on an Aprilia RS660 and Yamaha R6. The rider took a break from the NLR recently, to enter the iconic ‘Cock of the North’ road race at Olivers’ Mount – dubbed England’s only real road racing course. Brook battled it out all weekend in packed grids, and obtained some decent results throughout.
