Another weekend of racing for the team RS crew at the final round of the VMCCclub series, having missed round one there was no chance of silverware but we had some new parts to try, and hoping to push down my lap times a bit. There’s a gap of 2 seconds or so to the top three riders, and we are roughly speaking “best of the rest” on pure lap times.
Another great qualifying session put me right where I needed to be on the front row in P4.
Race one started well, putting my poor starts of round two behind me I slotted in behind the top 3 through turn one. Getting awesome drive through two I figured being among those three was the best way to learn … well I learnt something, Hugh slide and trip across the grass . Luckily I stayed upright but rejoined towards the back of the pack. Took a lap to gather myself and started to push back through the field. Ended up 7th with 4th fastest lap of the race.
Race two was another frustrating time with a couple of missed gear changes in the opening lap dropping me down the field. Same result,8th this time with 4th fastest lap time.
Race three and something to prove, perfect start aided by two riders starting from pi lane saw me slot into second, right head down and concentrate.. ran there for the first 3 laps and then those pesky fast riders picked me off.. P4 finish and a big gap back to 5th.
Unfortunately on the last laps we noticed a lack of power and on inspection we discovered I had blown the head gasket🤦♂️
We missed the final race, a bit of a frustrating day but taking the positives we have the pace, and the bike has potential…..
Being the final round we had prize giving and somehow I got press ganged into MCing the event… but that’s another story.

We have just heard that tyres are going up in price again.. I know right, getting a bit crazy out there... But don't worry we've got your back, well for a while at least:-)
Sets of Metzeler Sportec M7RR's in 120/70x17 Front with a 180/55 or 190/55x17 rear are just $650 FITTED to your pride an joy, Robert runs these on his Streetfighter and gives them the double thumbs up.
Or if want a great touring and commuting option we also have the now infamous Roadtec Z8 sets in 120/70x17 front paired with 160/60, 180/55 or 190/50X17 rear for an almost unbelieveable $550 for the set FITTED...
Nothing else to pay, we will even include the Tyre Wise fee.
But get in quick, it's only what's in stock... don't get caught out this winter, save $$$ and get some quality tyres now!
