MY NAME IS MICHAEL HOULDEN AND ALONG WITH MY FAMILY AND SOME VERY LOYAL SPONSORS AND SUPPORTERS WE ARE SNAILPACE RACING.

FOUNDED IN 2001 WE ARE NOW ENTERING OUR 5th SEASON OF RACING AND WILL BE CONTENDING FOR THE 5th TIME THE NEW ERA HONDA SUPERCLUB CB500 CHAMPIONSHIP.

OVER THE PREVIOUS 4 YEARS I HAVE MADE SOME GOOD FRIENDS BOTH OFF AND ON THE TRACK AND OVER THE YEARS HAVE SLOWLY IMPROVED IN MY RACING AND IN 2005 HAD A GOOD RUN IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH MANY FRONT ROW STARTS INCLUDING ONE POLE POSITION AND SEVERAL TOP 5 FINISHES ENDING THE SEASON IN 7TH PLACE MUCH BETTER THAN THE 22nd PLACE I MANAGED IN 2001.

SO 2006 ANOTHER YEAR AND ANOTHER CHALLENGE AND WITH SOME UNKNOWN NEW FACES AND SOME FAST FRIENDS CHANGING CLASS THIS YEAR PROMISES TO BE A VERY COMPETERTIVE SEASON WITH LOADS OF CLOSE HARD RACING.
