2016 Troy Bayliss Classic Lineup
The lineup includes riders stars from America, Australia, the United Kingdom, Japan and Sweden, representing seven disciplines in the world of motorcycle racing.
Eight international competitors – including four-time Long Track World Champion Joonas Kylmakorpi; British Supermoto Champion Chris Hodgson; Japanese Flat-Track Champion Masotoshi Ohmori; and America’s top five AMA Pro Flat Track racers Brad Baker, Sammy Halbert, Jared Mees, Henry Wiles and Jake Johnson – will take some of Australia’s top racers.
The 2016 Troy Bayliss Classic is a who’s who of Australian motorcycle racing, with the 27 racers collectively laying claim to over 200 national titles. Bayliss, a racing legend and the event organizer, has promised that the event will delivery some amazing on-track battles.
“This event continues to grow and improve year-on-year and the 2016 event is shaping up to the biggest one yet,” Bayliss said “International interest in the Troy Bayliss Classic is gaining momentum, evident by the fact we have eight incredible racers from four countries, coming to take on a stellar line-up of some of Australia’s best motorcycle racers.
“The track has undergone a complete resurface courtesy of Taree Council and it will not be ridden on until the event, which means no one rider will have an advantage when the gates drop on January 16.
“For me personally, I am looking forward to catching up with the fans and racing in front of a great line-up of our future motorcycle racing champions (juniors).”
