Summary

Riders are ready to launch their 2026 campaigns for KMSC and Scottish Championship glory, and the stage is set for a weekend packed with high-speed action. Across two days, 28 races, expect fierce rivalries, close battles, and flat-out racing from lights to flag.

Over 140 riders will take to the track across seven championships, including the powerhouse Superbike and Clubman 1000cc classes, thrilling Sidecars, and the agile 300s — where talented young riders, some as young as 12, prove their speed and skill.

Event Info

Get ready for two days of non-stop action as Scotland’s top riders battle it out for KMSC and Scottish Championship honours. The full championship line-up hits the track, featuring Superbikes, Clubmans, Formula Supersport, CB500s, Pre-Injection 600s, Sidecars, and the Formula 300s.

 

Across the weekend, an incredible 28 races will deliver edge-of-your-seat excitement as bikes roar past at up to 170mph — with full grids fighting for every inch of tarmac. From 10am to 5pm each day, enjoy exceptional value with hours of high-speed entertainment for fans of all ages.

It’s pure, adrenaline-fueled motorsport — the ultimate showcase of skill, speed, and Scottish racing passion!

KMSC Superbikes and Clubman sponsored by Shirlaws Motorcycles - Our Scottish/KMSC Superbike competitors will take to the track five times over the course of the weekend, aboard machinery boasting 1000cc and over. Our Clubman competitors will also join these races creating a race within a race.

 

• KMSC Formula Supersport sponsored by Cupar Motorcycles Racing - The Scottish and KMSC Motorcycle Formula Supersport Championship will see upwards of 30 racers take to the track aboard 600cc (and over) motorcycles. These race machines from the likes of Yamaha, Triumph, Kawasaki and Suzuki provide plenty of close-knit racing with the top finishers in class crossing the finishing line within seconds of each other.

 

• KMSC Lightweights sponsored by Stiggy Motorsport - The Lightweight class is actually made up of several different classes – each competing for their own Championships that include – Mini Twin and Formula 400.  Due to the differences and variety of bikes on show, there is always some really exciting racing, with passing moves galore throughout the field.

 

• KMSC Pre-Injection 600 sponsored by Reynolds Racing - Like the Formula 600 machines, the Pre-Injection 600s also boast up to 600cc but are generally older spec machines. This class provides plenty of thrilling racing and offers a relatively cheap route into the world of bike racing. This class sees newcomers entering the fold each and every season and often sees its elite competitors progress onto the Clubman, Formula 600 or Superbike categories.

 

• KMSC Formula 300s sponsored by Motorrad Central- This is the class most connected with young racers. It’s for 300s, production based motorcycles and is often the starting point for youngsters entering the sport. You’ll see young men and woman, as young as 12 years old, compete against each other at incredibly close quarters. This class is all about learning the track, improving times and improving race craft – yet still, maintains a real competitive edge to the racing.

 

• KMSC CB500 sponsored by BWR Recycling - This class has went under a transformation in the past few years. Re-introduced a few years back, this class has gone from strength to strength. We now regularly see over-subscribed grids with competitors needing to pre-qualify just to make the grid. The parity of the bikes performance allows for great, close racing with championship battles regularly goiung down to the wire.

 

• Marin Scottish Sidecars - These amazing racing machines with a rider and passenger continue their chase for Scottish and KMSC honours before their showcase event in October, the Jock Taylor Memorial Race Meeting.
