Tough Films Ltd Joins Aberdare Park Road Races as CB500/Bandit Class Sponsor

The Aberdare Park Road Races team is proud to welcome Tough Films Ltd as a brand-new commercial partner and the official sponsor of the CB500/Bandit class for the 2025 event.

The paint protection films experts are leading the way with self healing film, and are a welcome addition into the Aberdare Park Road Races community.

Company founder James Llewellyn has a personal connection to the racing world, one that makes this new partnership all the more special.

“Tough Films Ltd are proud sponsors of the CB500 race at Aberdare Park, a legendary event that celebrates grassroots racing and Welsh motorsport heritage. A few years back, I had a crack at a rookie season in the Mini Twins class, wearing the orange bib, and I loved every second of it. That experience gave me a real appreciation for the skill and bravery of the riders competing here. Having known Derek and Alex Smith for over a decade, it’s an honour to support an event they’ve been so passionately involved in and to be part of such a special racing community.”

The CB500/Bandit class has become a fan favourite in recent years, offering thrilling, closely-fought battles between riders on budget-friendly, competitive machinery. It's a category that encapsulates the spirit of Aberdare Park, grassroots racing, fierce competition, and a sense of community that is second to none.

The addition of Tough Films Ltd to our sponsor family not only strengthens our commercial foundations but continues the theme of partnerships that are built on shared values and authentic passion for the sport.

Race Director Derek Smith welcomed the new collaboration, saying "It’s always exciting to bring new partners on board, especially when they have such a strong emotional connection to the event. James' own racing experience and long-standing friendship with the team make Tough Films Ltd a perfect fit for Aberdare Park. We’re thrilled to have their support for the CB500/Bandit class in 2025.”

With the 2025 edition of the Aberdare Park Road Races shaping up to be one of the biggest and most widely viewed yet—thanks to our live global broadcast via King of the Roads and ITV4/ITVX coverage—it’s a brilliant time for local and national businesses to get involved.
