Quay Garage Racing Seek New Rider for BSB Cup
16 May 2008
Q8Oils-supported Quay Garage Racing are in talks with some high profile riders to replace James Buckingham, following the 23-year old’s brave decision to step back from racing. James has a long association with the North Devon team, having won the British Superbike ‘privateers cup’ with them in 2005. However he has been dogged by injury problems since a massive crash at Oulton Park in 2006 that left him with two broken ankles and has struggled to return to his previous form. James’ ankle injury ruled him out of the 2006 season and he rode with a hole in his ankle bone that caused considerable pain during his 2007 campaign. He underwent a bone graft operation at the end of the year.

15 May 2008
Ryan Farquhar was on the pace in Tuesday's opening practice sessions for the 2008 North West 200 on the Q8Oils lubricated McAdoo Kawasaki race bikes. Despite some minor set-up issues, Ryan ended the evening third, sixth and seventh fastest in the Supersport 600, Superbike and Superstock 1000 classes respectively. Out first on the new 2008 ZX-10R Kawasaki Superbike, Ryan went straight to the top of the timesheets during the opening laps of practice. He felt that the bike was really powerful and recorded the fastest speed trap time of the evening at 195.1mph with the on-board GPS system. Ryan lost a bit of track time trying to perfect the rear suspension but still ended the session a promising sixth fastest average speed of 118.702mph.

Keep Your Cool This Winter With Q8Oils
04 October 2007
Make sure your bike doesn’t catch a cold this winter, by ensuring that it has the correct level and concentration of engine coolant. That’s the advice from lubricant specialists Q8Oils. According to the AA a 50:50 mix of antifreeze and water in the cooling system is needed in winter. This gives maximum protection down to -34° centigrade and without it severe engine damage costing hundreds of pounds can occur. While it may sound odd to raise the subject of coolant in winter, modern motorcycle coolants are designed for year-round use. They have a higher boiling point than water, for summer cooling, and a lower freezing point for winter protection. If the coolant has been diluted, perhaps by topping up with water over the summer, it may freeze during a cold spell of weather. Just like the effect of freezing on the pipes in your house, this has the potential to cause damage by bursting the radiator and hoses on your motorcycle.

Q8Oils Chain Lube Keeps Airwaves Ducati On Track In BSB
07 August 2007
Whether you ride on the road or the track a well-lubricated drive chain will not only prolong the life of expensive-to-replace components, it will also help the engine to deliver its power to the rear wheel. Poorly lubricated chains will overheat, causing them to stretch and increasing friction on the sprockets, which will wear down more quickly, all of which affects the chain’s ability to drive the rear wheel. Worse still, the O-rings in modern chains are liable to perish if insufficiently protected by chain lube.
