2008 Season
The season has been Cameron's most successful to date. He achieved his first podiums at the North West 200, finishing in 3rd place in the Superstock race, and a close 2nd in the main Superbike race, being passed by Steve Plater at the Juniper Chicane on the last lap.
Despite missing the 2007 TT through injury, Donald returned to the island and won his first ever TT races. He won the opening Superbike race and also the Superstock race. He was in contention for the blue riband event as well, the Senior TT, but his bike suffered an oil leak while he was leading, forcing him to surrender the lead to John McGuinness. He managed to hold on to 2nd place to cap a great week for himself and the Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing Team.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“Compare ... the cinema with theatre. Both are dramatic arts. Theatre brings actors before a public and every night during the season they re-enact the same drama. Deep in the nature of theatre is a sense of ritual. The cinema, by contrast, transports its audience individually, singly, out of the theatre towards the unknown.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
