SPONSORED RIDER/DRIVER UPDATE

Kart racer Marcus Hudson is campaigning in the Super 4 British Championship for the 2026 season. Following positive results in 2025, we caught up with Hudson after the first round of the 2026 season at Fulbeck Kart Circuit, Lincolnshire, where technical issues did little to dampen his optimistic spirits.

Front-running BSB Supersport team, Astro-MAR HIPPO Suzuki, recently took the annual pilgrimage to Florida’s Daytona International Speedway for the 200-mile Daytona 200 endurance race. The trio of Suzuki GSXR-750 bikes all boast ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Racing’s GPFAX brake pads and X-Series discs up front.

The Clubracer racing outfit has relied on ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ components as it has made its way up the ranks through the MSVR Trackday Championship classes. This all culminated in an outright championship win in 2025 – a fantastic result for the team. Riding off this success, they’ve decided to move onto pastures new for the 2026 season, entering the 750MC Roadsports Championship, where they took home a podium in the opening round.

Dave Barrett is competing in the 2026 Modified Ford Series, piloting his modified Mk4 Ford Fiesta 1.6 Zetec within the Class C category. We caught up with Dave after the first round of the year, held at Cheshire’s Oulton Park recently, where he achieved a maximum points hall with class wins in both races entered.

Pro drifter, Stuart Egdell, continues his partnership with ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ as he once again carries out another season of the Drift France championship. We caught up with Egdell off the back of his debutant 2026 round at Circuit du Val de Vienne, where despite some setbacks, it was a positive insight into the year ahead for the team.

Following a season in NLR’s SuperTwins in 2025, as well as successes on the gruelling Manx Grand Prix and Classic TT races at the iconic Isle of Man mountain course, Russell Brook began his 2026 campaign by entering the NLR 750km Endurance Race at Donington Park Circuit, where they took home a 3rd in class.

British Caterham racer, Carl Jones, is undertaking another season in the top-tier Caterham Seven Championship UK in his 420R-badged machine. Following multiple podiums across 2025, we caught up with Jones fresh off the back of his first 2026 round at Silverstone, where a DNF in Race 1 was pivoted into spectacular victory in the second outing of the weekend, despite starting at the back of the grid.

The British Army Motorcycle Road Race Team (AMRRT) is an exclusive racing club for all Army, RAF and Navy personnel. Formed in 2010, the AMRRT is one of the largest teams in the British Army Motorsports Association. It encompasses two road racing disciplines – sprints and endurance – with 21 full-time and reserve riders, plus support crew for 2026. We caught up with the team off the back of the official BSB testing day at Derbyshire’s Donington Park, where prep for the season seems to be going well.

ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ-Supported Drifter Continues Globe-Spanning Charity Mission

Irish drifter, Andy Howard, is currently completing his epic ‘Drift Across the World’ journey across the globe.

Towards the end of 2025, Howard shipped his BMW 330i Touring over to Australia, with the aim of driving the car back to his homeland of Ireland whilst raising money for the Make-a-Wish foundation in the process.

He’s relying on ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ components for the stopping power on his trusty steed, as he drives, drifts and lives in the car over this huge journey. He’s running Bluestuff pads, USR discs and braided brake lines – a strong and reliable setup that should help him navigate the hugely varying and demanding terrain that lays ahead of him.

We caught up with Andy recently as he’d left Australia and entered Southeast Asia, with spirits high as he navigated his way through Malaysia and Thailand.

SPONSORED RIDER/DRIVER UPDATE

Racing driver, Gary Lowe, enjoyed a pre-season shakedown in his E92 BMW 335i at Derbyshire’s Donington Park recently, ahead of the vehicle’s debut season in the 750MC Armed Forces Challenge.

Arizona-based Austin Phipps of the Mulletsport race team is a professional drifter, currently using a modified 2012 Audi S4 with manual transmission and rear-wheel drive conversion in various drift series across the USA.

We’ve caught up with the Mulletsport outfit off the back of their attendance at Round 1 of the Southern Californian HOTPIT Autofest show – a weekend that threw up many challenges and proved to be a big learning curve for the team.

Retford-based Scott Stone is competing in No Limits Racing’s Pirelli Super Series 1000 Power Trophy on his Yamaha R1, aiming to achieve solid results throughout the year.

All-new six-piston big brake kit offers one giant leap forwards for the performance braking market

ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Racing’s Apollo Big Brake Kits represent the ultimate upgrade when it comes to improving stopping power.

Complete with stunning, British-engineered six-piston calipers and all the hardware you need to completely replace all equivalent components of the front axle of your vehicle’s stock braking system, these complete kits give a firmer and more responsive brake pedal feel and allow you to drive much longer without the onset of brake fade.

Apollo Big Brake Kits are also supplied with front braided brake lines and high-performance fluid, ensuring a brake upgrade that delivers maximum braking performance.

These kits are now available for six cylinder-engine versions of the iconic re-born Toyota GR Supra – a celebrated driver’s car that many enthusiasts enjoy on both road and track.

Notes

– Dimensions: 380x36mm

– Part Numbers:

  • BBK042RED-1 (Racing Red)
  • BBK042BLU-1 (Storm Shadow Blue)
  • BBK042BLK-1 (Stealth Black)
  • BBK042YEL-1 (Luminous Yellow)

– Applications:

Suitable for the front axles of the following vehicles:

  • Toyota GR Supra (2019- ) (all six-cylinder variants)

For a complete list of vehicle applications, .

Apollo-Series 6-Piston Calipers

  • ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµâ€™s lightweight-yet-strong aluminium 6-piston brake caliper
  • Two-piece bolted design that incorporates high-tensile 12.9-grade steel bolts for reinforcement of the caliper bridge section (computer FEA analysis shows that this offers significant improvements in caliper stiffness compared to a monobloc design)
  • Machined from heat-treated low-pressure castings (this offers a noticeable performance advantage over conventional gravity cast calipers, exhibiting higher overall strength and a comparable caliper body stiffness to forging)
  • High-temperature fluid seals coupled with full boot-type dust seals give maximum protection against road grime and debris
  • Lightweight, hard-anodised aluminium staggered pistons with serrated/castellated piston noses that reduce heat transfer into the braking hydraulics
  • Every single brake caliper pressure tested to 2,500psi
  • Full stainless-steel hardware and fittings, providing durability and longevity – this caliper will never rust
  • Uses standard pad shapes, giving choice when selecting brake pads
  • Rather than a powder-coated finish, all Apollo calipers use an advanced high-temperature Teflonâ„¢ polyester coating process to ensure they look great for much longer. Currently available in Stealth Black, Storm Shadow Blue, Luminous Yellow and Racing Red

Fully-Floating Two-Piece Discs

  • Fully-floating 380x36mm two-piece discs that allow the outer ring to expand freely in response to heat (this reduces stress which in turn extends disc life and reduces the tendency for disc cracking during extreme use)
  • Drive bobbins machined from a single piece of stainless steel giving maximum strength and corrosion resistance (this reduces maintenance requirements and ensures the outer ring continues to float freely over time)
  • Disc rings feature 48 directional internal curved vanes for improved cooling
  • Unique ‘Swept Groove’ slot design for effective evacuation of braking dust and gases whilst ensuring good initial bite on brake application
  • Now featuring the latest thermic black corrosion-resistant finish – the very latest in rust prevention

Bluestuffâ„¢ NDX Performance Brake Pads

  • Every ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit is supplied with ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ Bluestuffâ„¢ NDX pads for the front axle
  • Now road legal in most markets, Bluestuffâ„¢ NDX combines excellent cold bite with the capability to perform well in short spells of track/race conditions

Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines

  • Every kit is supplied with ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµâ€™ stainless-steel braided brake lines for the front axle
  • Every hose has a stainless-steel braided exterior that prevents a phenomenon known as ‘ballooning’, this braided exterior prevents the spongey feel of OE rubber lines and provides greater precision and feel under braking

Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid

  • Every kit is supplied with 1 litre of BF307+ super DOT 4 brake fluid. This fluid has a 310°C boiling point – a significantly higher boiling point than standard DOT 5.1 fluid
  • Having such a high boiling point gives the braking system exceptional endurance, allowing you to push hard for extended periods without heat soak causing the fluid to boil and resulting in fade

Availability

Available now. Please to find your local ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµ stockist and see a full list of applications.
