Superbike-Coach Track Days at Thunderhill Raceway 2026
/0 Comments/in Announcement/by Can AkkayaSuperbike-Coach Track Days at Thunderhill Raceway 2026
I am more than thrilled to announce our track days at Thunderhill Raceway for 2026, and what we are planning to do.
As you may know meanwhile, our track days are made for the low experienced- or even brand new track riders. A non-competitive environment for all our students and other riders to join. The numbers are telling the story about how we handle things. While other track day organizers are having 3 crashes PER group in average- we have 3 per day! In fact, at our last track day, we had only ONE!
So how we do this part, won’t change at all. But there is quite some stuff that will change for our set track days on 10/31/2026 and 11/1/2026:
- We do weekend track days! So you can either do Saturday, Sunday, or extend the fun with us and do both.
- Early bird ticket sale is on right now, and bundle discount for doing both as well.
- Overnight camping is INCLUDED. You could arrive on Friday evening already and have a BBQ with the Superbike-Coach team.
- This time, we’ll have THREE level groups: B+, B and C group.
- Experienced instructors will be available to work with you on the track.
- Our Track Rookie class will be available for C riders on Saturday as an optional add-on!
- Our Track Academy will be available for B+ riders on Sunday as an optional add-on!
The clubhouse will be hosting these two classes, but our ‘Mobile Track Classroom’ trailer will be central part in the paddock over the weekend. Thomas of Carson Pass RV will be there as well, and I’m sure you’ll have something to look at there.- Besides planned raffle prices- we plan on doing something in the night from Sat to Sun :-)
- We’ll have the Pirelli tire service truck there over the weekend, who are also able to do smaller repairs.
- Besides that we have rental bikes for all groups- The guys from Rent-E-Motos will be there, to offer their amazing electronic motorcycles for rent.
- Jorge, from 31 Cats, is offering his bike transport and hospitality services for the weekend, so make sure you check that out early enough.
There is more in the planning, but I can’t go into details at this time. All in all- this is going to be an unforgettable experience which I hope you are not going to miss out. Go use the early bird and bundle discounts as long they are active!
Can’t wait :-)

Superbike-Coach Track Days at Thunderhill Raceway in 2024
/2 Comments/in Announcement/by Can AkkayaI am super excited to go into the 2024 riding season as we just settled dates for Track Days at Thunderhill West Raceway in 2024.
Not just that, I also decided for running dedicated classes during these track days. Instead of having the typical 3 groups, we have 2 (B+ and B), and the 3rd one will be reserved for a class. This makes our track days even more outstanding. I’ve been always thinking of taking the ‘Track Rookie‘ and the ‘Track Academy‘ classes to the big track as an logical next step for our students. Nothing changes for all groups being out on the wonderful Thunderhill Raceway, as everyone will get the usual 7×20 track sessions. It’s just that the class group is going to have classroom in-between.


Our track days at Thunderhill West Raceway always have been different, but this is going to elevate them even more. Hope ya’ll take advantage of it and sign up early to secure and to support.

Welcome Back Bridgestone Tires
/0 Comments/in About Racing, Announcement, Experience/by Can AkkayaI can happily announce that Superbike-Coach is back together with Bridgestone Motorcycle Tires and Sportbike Upgrades, which is there distributor for race tires.
Their portfolio covers all motorcycle categories, so something you should look into. A Bridgestone tire is a fast and long living tire for its grip level, but what I like the most is that they are transparent. That means that they have a gentle way to tell you that you’ve reached their limits. Also a positive thing is, that they are very easy on almost any suspension set up and that they deliver decent grip while warming them up.

Featuring Wiseco Performance Products
/0 Comments/in About Superbike-Coach/by Can AkkayaImagine you’re crashing or your engine just died under a thick cloud of smoke. Horrible idea right? But stuff like that happens.
How I see it is that this is a just an opportunity for mods, upgrades and rebuild. The aftermarket give us everything we need to keep the ball financially low, because depending on the brand you’ve been riding- that can be a money pit real quick. My argument… but even it’s not cheaper, I’d try to make the bike better as it was before. Make it more ride-able, make it looks better, or my favorite… to get more performance out of it.
Wiseco is a well known name for performance products around this planet, and we can proudly say that they sponsor the Superbike-Coach Corp. So we recently had to rebuild two of our school bikes and they provided us with the highest quality of race piston kits, titanium valves and gasket kits you possibly can get. Lucky YOU, if you can rebuild engines yourself, because that will save you thousands of Dollars which you can put into upgrades instead. If you can’t do that… learn it, because it ain’t that hard actually.

However, my Supermoto race bike, which I mostly use in our Cornering School and Supermoto 1on1 programs, is a beast now. Thanks to Wiseco we could install a top tier piston kit with the highest material quality out there. The compression ratio ramped up to 13:1 now and gives the extra punch out of corners. Extremely light titanium vales for less moving masses in that engine give me that extra rpm band at the end of the straight.
Ones you went with cheap no-name gaskets, you know that this isn’t the place to save money on… you go with trustworthy quality for the extra dollar, and that’s Wiseco for us as well. Their clutch plates rounding our needs up.
Wiseco has pretty much everything for any application, so for yours. Go check them out.
