The Motor Cycle Union of Ireland - Ulster Centre took the decision on Wednesday 9th February 2010 to help out the Irish Superbike Championship in 2010. The Ulster Centre are adding a new date to the Championship calendar to replace some of the dates regrettably dropped by Mondello Park this year, in order to give support to Ulster Centre licence holders.

In the last few weeks the 1st May has become available and steps were quickly put in place to hire a suitable venue for an event. At the meeting on Wednesday night everything was agreed to include the 1st May for a round of Irish Superbike Championship at Kirkistown Race Circuit. It has also been confirmed that on the 8th May the Centre will also run an additional Irish Clubman's Championship event at Kirkistown Circuit.

Both of these events will be promoted under Ulster Centre Sports Promotions and it is hoped that with these extra dates and ongoing talks with Mondello Park and Motorcycling Ireland hopefully a 22 round championship can still be secured in 2010.
