<\/p>\nAvon Tyres is a British brand widely acknowledged as the master of classic race tyres. This status has been underlined once again in the Isle of Man with victories for Avon in both the Senior and Junior Classic TT races, for John McGuinness and Michael Dunlop respectively.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At this year\u2019s Classic TT (27-29 August) Avon dominated the podium with top riders, including Dean Harrison, Maria Costello, Michael Rutter and Alan Oversby using Avon race rubber.<\/p>\n
Avon Tyres Motorsport Manager, Steve Smith, said, “The script writers couldn\u2019t have come up with a better story! John McGuinness wins the Senior Classic on Saturday and Michael Dunlop wins the Junior Classic on Sunday, both on Avon tyres.”<\/p>\n

The Avon Motorsport department remains in the Isle of Man this week, as the Manx Grand Prix immediately follows on from the Classic TT. Avon Tyres has high hopes of further success with riders using the Avon Xtreme race tyres to compete in the Lightweight, Junior and Senior races.<\/p>\n
From the Manx Grand Prix, Avon will be heading across the Irish Sea, and down south, for the Goodwood Revival meeting in Chichester, West Sussex, where the Classic TT stars will be back in action.<\/p>\n
“The Goodwood Revival is always a fantastic event and it’s shaping up to be a real cracker this year with John McGuinness and Michael Dunlop riding on Avon race tyres,” said Steve Smith. “We also have Kevin Schwantz, Troy Corser and Maria Costello competing, as well as a host of race legends and television personalities such as Steve Plater and Steve Parrish. Virtually all of the bikes at Goodwood will be running Avons, the majority of them on our special race versions of the AM26 Roadrider.”<\/p>\n
The Goodwood Revival takes place on September 9-11, and is a magical step back in time, celebrating the halcyon days of racing. For further information on the world\u2019s largest and most authentic historic racing event, visit www.goodwood.com. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
