FHO Racing Return to 2025 NW200 :

The NW200 have confirmed in a social media post that FHO Racing will return to the 2025 North West 200.

Following a two year absence, the FHO Racing BMW team will compete at the 2025 Briggs Equipment North West 200 with Peter Hickman and new signing, Davey Todd aboard M1000RR BMWs in the Superbike and Superstock races during May 5-10 Race Week.

‘Having missed the last two years, I am happy to say FHO Racing will be participating in the 2025 North West 200 with my two rider line-up.’ team owner, Faye Ho said.

‘I am very much looking forward to coming back and putting on a good show for everyone and it will be great to see all of the team’s fans again. Hope to see you all in 2025!’

A delighted NW200 Race Director, Mervyn Whyte, agreed the deal during November’s Macau Grand Prix, ensuring one of the principal race teams and two of the leading riders in the British Superbike championship will be on the grid at Portrush in May.

‘Davey Todd won this year’s British Superstock championship and moves up to the Superbike series for 2025 where he is joining Peter Hickman.’ Whyte said.

‘Both Davey and Peter are leading contenders on the roads and tracks and the FHO Racing BMWs have a well-established pedigree of success so this is very exciting news for North West 200 fans.’

Hickman won the JM Paterson and Milltown Service Station Supertwin races at last year’s NW200 and Todd claimed a brilliant hat-trick in the CP Hire and Amici Ristorante Superstock events plus the Tides Restaurant Supersport race.

Here’s what was discussed at this month’s board meeting:

Welcomed New Board Members – We’re excited to introduce new faces to the team!

Positive Progress with Insurance – We have received some positive feedback on current insurance progress. We thank you for your patience while we continue to work hard on this topic. We will release a separate statement on insurance soon.

Upcoming Inter-Centre Conference – Details of the inter-centre conference were discussed, as well as selecting the board members who will represent us at the event. We look forward to this event as a way to bring all of the centres together for discussions on our disciplines and the future of our sport.

Licence Extension – All current competition licences have been extended until February 28th, in line with our current insurance period.

Holeshot Draw – The Holeshot draw raised €175,000 in total, which went a long way in covering our insurance premium. We would once again like to thank everyone who supported the draw. A special thank you to two of the winners who donated their prizes back to the insurance fund.

Website Updates – We’re continuing our work on our new website, with a focus now going to ensure that each discipline will soon have their own section for specific information. This is a work in progress.
