Brilliant Brands Hatch victory for Nassington’s Frank Bird
At the Kent track where his father Paul’s British Superbike Championship team had so much success 22-year-old Bird and Japanese teammate Ryuichiro Tomita took a magnificent third place overall in the opening race which they then backed up with an impressive fifth overall in race two.
But as well as lifting the trophy for third overall in race one, Penrith-born Frank and Tomita won the Silver Cup class followed by a second place in class in the second outing to round off a fantastic weekend.
