MSS Colchester Kawasaki's Gary Mason believes the potential for some great British Superbike results is within his grasp after setting his fastest ever lap times around Brands Hatch last weekend.

The Lichfield rider, who is in his second year with the squad, experienced some problems in the first race but went on to bag a top-ten result in the second outing.

“My second race was certainly better than the first and I think we are getting there with the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R. Brands isn’t a great track for us and with a new bike it’s hard to get on the pace, a few tenths here and there make a big difference around such a short track," said Mason.

"But there is certainly potential, I went faster today than I ever have around Brands and as always the boys worked their guts out. I’m now really looking forward to Oulton which is a rider’s circuit and one I love.”
