Welcome to the home of the original Superteens Challenge, the longest running and most successful one make series in the UK.

Since its inception back in 1996 the Aprilia Superteens Challenge has been the launch pad for many international racing careers and to date has spawned two world champions, James Toseland and Casey Stoner as well as a host of other riders competing at British and World Championship level.

Once again the championship will be running under Thundersport GB, a new organisation setup to bridge the gap between club and national competition. The "Nitro Newcomers Cup", a championship within the main championship for newcomers to road racing, will be run alongside the main series once more.

The technical regulations for the 2009 season are now published. Click here to view.

For 2009 Lloyd Lifestyle will continue to support the Aprilia Superteen Challenge by offering competitors Nitro Leathers, Helmets, Gloves and Boots for a price of £200.00

"We are extremely pleased to be able to offer this package to the Aprilia Superteen Competitors and thank Lloyd Lifestyle and Nitro for their continued support" said Myra Newton of IN Competition.

Dunlop Tyres, the long standing sponsors of the Aprilia Superteen Challenge, have confirmed that the following prizes will be awarded on the televised second day of every Thundersport GB meeting for both the Aprilia Championship class and the Nitro Newcomers class in 2009.

The top three points scorers from both races in the Aprilia Championship and the Nitro Newcomers will receive...

1st - A Pair of Dunlop Tyres
2nd - A Rear Dunlop Tyre
3rd - A Front Dunlop Tyre

A total of 8 tyres are guaranteed per event.

In the interest of fairness, no one rider shall be eligible for more than a pair of tyres at each meeting. Therefore, if a Nitro Newcomer should win the race outright, the second set of tyres will be passed down the championship order to the next best placed rider. To be eligible for this Dunlop funded allocation riders must display the Dunlop logo on their leathers for racing and qualifying. Riders are also reminded that it is important to our championship partners that all riders should wear the official Dunlop caps for their podium presentations and TV interviews.

Thundersport GB and IN Competition would like to thank Dunlop for their continued support of this keystone youth championship.

The Thundersport GB official "Aprilia Superteen Challenge" and "Nitro Newcomers Cup" will be visiting Donington Park at both of this years FIM World Championship events. Having already been announced as a support race at the British Motorcycle Grand Prix on 23rd - 26th July, Thundersport GB and Donington Park are delighted to announce the inclusion of the "Aprilia Superteens" at the Hanspree World Superbike event on June 26th - 28th June with races for the youngsters on both Saturday and Sunday of this prestigious event.

Dave Stewart CEO of Thundersport GB said "Once again Donington Park have shown their support for this most successful of all of the junior formulae and I'm sure that the young riders will remember that when they become stars in the years to come. We are grateful to Donington Park, Dorna, ACU Events and FG Sport for their forward looking attitude towards youth development. Surely there can never have been a better time to be in the Aprilia Superteen series!"

This 'championship within a championship' will be for competitors who want to pit themselves against the best young riders in the country, but still be recognised for their achievements compared with other riders new to the Challenge.
All competitors will still score points in the main Aprilia Challenge series as well as featuring in the televised coverage.
