Results of the '89 season are now available, along with a report of the first round of that year.
November 6th 2011
For the sake of completeness, information from the 1988 and 1989 season is being added to the site. Entry lists, schedules and championship standings for both years are available, while qualifying and race results from 1988 are also uploaded. 1989 results will be on the site shortly. Results from the 1995 season have also been added.
The entry list records for 1989 are still slightly incomplete: Sakis Skourtas's entry number at Paul Ricard is unknown, and the first names of U. Caluori and W. Friedl who entered at Hockenheim are also missing. Send me an email if you can help fill in the blanks.

Results for 1992 are now complete. The '92 season had some inconsistencies in the qualifying format; every round had three qualifying sessions, except for Assen which had two, and rounds with a large number of entries split the riders into two groups who each did three sessions. Most of the individual sessions' results are here but for a few rounds only the final grid times are listed.
July 9th 2011
Results of the 1993 and 1994 seasons have been added, 1992 is nearly complete.
June 22nd 2011
The re-built site is now up, a few sections are still missing but they will appear over the next few weeks.
May 21st 2011
The FIM have very kindly provided me with copies of most of the original race and qualifying result sheets all the way back to 1990, so expect to see the results section fully updated within the next few weeks. Results for every round of 1990 are already up.
April 22nd 2011
Championship tables have been completely rewritten, and any errors corrected.
April 5th 2011
Results for 1999 are now uploaded.
March 26th 2011
The results section has now been updated with all of 1998 and the first 5 rounds of 1997, which are almost entirely complete with every session.
Also available now are the manufacturers' championship standings for each year.
March 4th 2011
As of this evening, there's a new section on the site: Results. Still very much a work in progress, I'll be trying to upload results of as many sessions as possible including practice, both qualifying sessions and pre-race warm-up, which as far as I know are not available for seasons pre-1998 on any other site.
I'd be extremely grateful if anyone could provide me with the timesheets that are missing from my records. At the moment I have everything from 1998 and 1999 (yet to be uploaded), and race results for the majority of the other years, but the other sessions are proving very hard to find.

Graham Etheridge has provided me with a set of photos from the first round of 1993 at Brands Hatch, which are now available in the media section.
With the help of the members of the motorkari.cz forum, I've also completed profiles for 5 of the 6 Slovakian riders who entered World Superbike races, plus several of the Czech riders.
