Sunday 10th April
Well it just wasn’t to be yesterday i guess. Upon turning up i found out i had been moved to another class. But i was confident i could do well. Whilst blasting from a flag to flag win ( the only set of tapes we had were broken in heat 1) in my first heat, i looked to the second knowing it was tough. When i reached the gate there was only three of us. I made the gate and was in first but whilst heading into the second lap the bike seemed to die and then regain its power. This continued every corner until the very last. Leading into the last corner the engine finally gave up and died completely sending me off into the fence. I switched bikes back in the pits but the second bike didnt want to go either. After cleaning out the carburettor and refuelling it, it finally got going. Although in my last two races i struggled with the bike and setup i managed to pick up 3 points. But in my last race although picking up second the carb seemed to give way crossing the line and another bike was to be shelved. So an early shower and looke forward to Newport in two or three weeks time. Thanks to Matt and my dad who were my mechanics yesterday and did a sterling job.
