As for Superbike, Mohd Ramdan Rosli and Muhammad Jamalul Tarmizi also raced their BMW S 1000 RR brilliantly and managed to score podium finishes in fourth and fifth respectively (and another P2 in the final race for Ramdan).
It was an uphill battle against the likes of Azlan Shah Kamaruzaman and his Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R from the Chia PJ Kawasaki Racing Team, Rajini Krishnan of Team RACR, and Jonathan Serrapica’s Yamaha YZF-R1 but it was a valiant effort from both riders.
Overall, the TOC HKM Racing Team did an amazing job in both the Superstock and Superbike categories this season. Rest assured that they will be bringing more firepower in the upcoming season of the Pirelli Malaysia Superbike Championship. Congrats, everyone!
