New-look Honda Factory Team

The brand new Penrite Honda Racing factory team operated by ER Motorsports has officially been launched, set to field Troy Herfoss in the 2018 Yamaha Motor Finance Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK).

In forming a naming-rights partnership with Penrite Oil, the new-look Honda factory Superbike team has been established by former national-level racer Deon Coote, who now operates Victorian-based road construction company Elite Roads.

The Penrite Honda Racing team will be operated out of a purpose-built facility in Altona to accommodate the ER Motorsports race team alongside Elite Roads. Honda has signed 2016 ASBK champion Herfoss to line-up aboard the team’s sole CBR1000RR entry, to be joined by team manager Shaun Clarke alongside his crew of Glenn Granger and Ian Collier throughout the season.

“Launching the Penrite Honda Racing team to contest the 2018 ASBK season is a great challenge for us and one that we are excited to begin with our partners,” ER Motorsports director Coote commented. “Troy is a truly competitive athlete who will be sure to put in 100 percent and we are also pleased to welcome Shaun as team manager, working with Glenn and Ian.

“Penrite has proven to produce championship and race-winning oils. Their Bathurst win was legendary and their willingness to work with us has already proven invaluable. I am also proud to be backed by an Australian-owned and made oils company that is proven, so we are certainly looking forward to the season ahead.”
