125 TaG Super Series - 2008
Series & Round Results
See the "Latest News" pages for the latest results, reports, photos and points from the opening rounds.
Overview
The TaG Super Series will return for the 2008 session. The 2007 series was nothing less than spectacular with 84 registed drivers competing across the series and a mountain of prizes awarded.
2008 promises to be bigger and better than ever with over $20,000 of prizes.
New to the 2008 TaG Super Series will be TaG Restricted Class (TaG-R). TaG-R is a new class created by the AKA for D & C grade license holders. The TaG-R class is a restricted version of the TaG class. It utilizes the same 125cc motors as the TaG class but the engines are fitted with an exhaust restrictor and use MG Red tyres.
The TaG-R class has the same speed & grip level as the Clubman class but with all the benefits an electric start water cooled motor can provide.

In the future, drivers graduating from TaG-R will be awarded this prize. For 2007, any driver who upgraded to a B grade license after October 1st 2007 and has not held a P/C license before October 1st 2006 will be eligible for this prize.

TaG Australia are now in discussion with some additional sponsors and hope to announce a Series Prize for Super Heavy drivers soon.
