It is a great pleasure to be joining Centurion Racing for the 2008 British Supersport Championship. They entered the series with a bang a few years ago and have become one of the most high profile, professional teams in the paddock. Although still a new team they have a wealth of experience with the people involved. Next season my goal is to win the championship with Centurion. I'm happier than ever with the decision I have made and look forward to working with all the team. By the time next season comes I will be fitter, lighter and stronger - ready to win!! A big thank you to Paul & Gary at Centurion for giving me this fantastic opportunity.
