McBain and Peris Win in Canada

15 August 2008

Team Suzuki's Clint McBain and Chris Peris both scored wins at the weekend's Parts Canada Superbike Championship fifth and sixth round at Atlantic Motorsport Park, just outside of Shubenacadia, Nova Scotia. Superbike action on Saturday saw a fierce battle between McBain on his Acceleration Racing Suzuki GSX-R1000 and current champion Jordon Szoke. With leads changes throughout the 22 lap race, McBain scored a close second place finish as Szoke crossed the line just 0.055 seconds ahead of the Suzuki GSX-R1000 pilot. Completing the podium in third spot was Team Suzuki rider Chris Peris on his Team Suzuki, Blackfoot Direct, Picotte Performance GSX-R750. Knowing that handling and agility can be a bigger factor than all out horsepower at the AMP circuit, the Team thought the GSX-R750 might be the right weapon to use at 'Shubie'. A third-place finish in its first outing showed that the GSX-R750 has a lot of potential at this circuit.
