OUR story
established in 2020..
Grasstrack Banter Promotions is an organisation dedicated to promoting and organising motorcycle grasstrack racing events. Established in 2020 by enthusiasts Ben Ilsley, Gareth Bemister, Russell Little, and Luke Russell, the group leverages our extensive experience in the sport. We aim to enhance the visibility and enjoyment of grasstrack racing, which involves high-speed motorcycle competitions on oval, grass-covered tracks.
The group debuted with “Bantasia 1” in 2021, a livestreamed event held during COVID-19 restrictions, and has since continued to host events like “Bantasia Grasstrack,” and the “Track Racing Team Tournament” featuring various racing classes, including sidecars and solos. These events are known for their family-friendly atmosphere, thrilling races, and dedication to fostering community engagement in the sport.
The club also run media platforms to support riders, organisers, and fans, while emphasising innovation in event management, such as online entry systems and live-streamed races.
