This season will see Derek Vammus move up to Ducati's premier race bike, the 1098 Superbike. For the second year the Team is Supported by the local Ducati Dealer, Penninsula Import Ducati. Derek's last ride on a Superbike was in September 2007at the RACE Superseries Finale. Derek took his maiden voyage on the venerable Ducati 999R Superbike and in the process took the race victory in the Heavyweight Class and set a new lap record. "I've ridden a lot of bikes, but there is something special about riding a superbike. The power is awesome! It just put's a smile on your face! The 999 was an awesome superbike but i'm even more excited about racing the totally redesigned Ducati 1098 Superbike." The season begins in April with Testing and then opens up in May with the first races at Shannonville's RACE Superseries.
