Famed Italian aftermarket manufacturer Magneti Marelli has confirmed their sponsorship support for the 2013 Mopar Canadian Superbike Championship motorcycle road racing series.  The versatile and innovative company will become the title sponsor for the Amateur Superbike National Championship Series, as well as the presenting sponsor for the new Magneti Marelli Pro Superbike SuperPole Award.

Part of the Fiat Group, innovation and quality are at the core of Magneti Marelli. The company invests heavily in research, development and engineering, and is also a global leader in the aftermarket.

“We’re proud of our association with the CSBK series, and want to see the tour grow, and that takes support in all areas of motorcycle sport, Amateur and Professional,” explains Jim Kiritsis, Senior Manager, National Service and parts.  “Magneti Marelli has a great history in motorsport, and we are excited to take part in Canadian Superbike Series which also has a rich history.”

The Amateur Superbike class joined the CSBK tour in 2011, due to competitor demand.  Since its inception the 1000 cc junior production based category has featured plenty of action.  Last season, Trevor Daley won the National crown in Amateur Superbike, surviving a wild final double header weekend at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park near Bowmanville, ON. 

After switching from his regular Suzuki to a borrowed Honda, Daley survived a crash into the AirFence to clinch his first National road racing title.  Streetsville, ON based Daley is the owner of Trevor Daley Concepts, a high performance fabrication business.

Magneti Marelli’s sponsorship for the SuperPole will include a $500 cash prize award for the fastest qualifier and pole sitter for each Mopar Pro Superbike Feature round.  In the final Qualifying session of each weekend, the top ten riders are selected for a final brief on-track “Shoot Out” session that sets the starting order at the front of the grid. 

Bonus series points are also awarded for the three fastest Qualifiers for each round of the 2013 Mopar CSBK tour.  Last year, overall series CSBK Champ Jordan Szoke of Brantford, ON earned pole for all but one of the Championship events aboard his BMW Motorrad S1000RR Superbike.

Both the new Magneti Marelli supported events will debut at the 2013 Mopar CSBK opener, slated for Shannonville Motorsport Park’s Pro Track layout on June 7-9, 2013.
