Competing at the Isle of Man TT is a dream for many riders, and for good reason. It’s far more than a race. It’s a supreme test of skill, courage, and determination on the beautiful yet dangerous roads of the Isle of Man. As race day approaches, riders prepare like modern-day warriors to face the legendary 37.73-mile Snaefell Mountain Course, a demanding mix of fast straights, tight villages, and unpredictable terrain.
As a team, we’ve been part of the TT for several years now, and we’re proud to have grown into a familiar and reliable presence in the paddock. With each edition, we strengthen our experience and teamwork, earning our place as a steady and respected force within this iconic event.
Established in 2019 and hitting the track in full throttle in 2021, Never be Clever Racing Team is the creation of André van den Brink, the owner of Van den Brink Koeltechniek, who not only leads the team but also proudly serves as its primary sponsor. With a deep passion for motorsport alongside his successful business ventures, André embarked on this exhilarating journey, shaping the team from its inception.
At Never be Clever Racing Team, we firmly believe that the essence of racing lies not just in winning but in cherishing every moment on the track. While the pursuit of victory is central to our mission, having a blast along the way is equally important to us. We’re not just a racing team; we’re a close-knit family of enthusiasts who are genuinely thrilled by the world of motorsport.
