Sail-World.com : P1 Superstock rookie team of the year places first European order

P1 Superstock rookie team of the year places first European order

'Superstock powerboat build'    Powerboat P1 Superstock Championship
Powerboat P1 Management (P1) yesterday celebrated a highly successful launch of its revolutionary new P1-28SS race boat at Autosport International at the NEC Birmingham. The unveiling of the boat drew huge interest from motorsport fans and key industry figures who gathered to catch the first glimpse of the boat in Europe.

The very first order for the new powerboat was taken within the first hour of the motorsport show, with P1 SuperStock's Rookie Team of 2010, Flying Sparks at the head of the queue.

Robert Booker and Martin Wild from Berkshire competed in the 150 class during the 2010 season and were complete newcomers to the sport, fulfilling their ambition to race in the fastest-growing marine motorsport in the world.

The Flying Sparks duo are stepping up to the more powerful 250 class next year and will take delivery of their new SuperStock boat in March to allow plenty of time for testing before the opening race of the 2011 season in Cornwall in May.

P1 SuperStock rookie team of the year places first European order for P1-28SS powerboat as boat is unveiled Robert Booker commented, 'We had a great first year in the P1 SuperStock series and are relishing the thought of winning the championship with our new racing package. We can't wait to experience the increase in power and speed that the 250/300 class affords. The new boat is awesome and we're very impressed both with the design and the fact that it's thousands of pounds cheaper than the current model, despite all the additional features and technology.'

The Flying Sparks children's charity benefits by receiving international exposure from the exciting SuperStock race series. Martin Wild said, 'Sparks is a wonderful charity that raises money to fund vital research into illness and conditions affecting babies and children. There has been tremendous interest in the charity through our racing, particularly with new audiences.'
